I love the ambiguity of your 5/7/5 this most imaginative piece, the idea of the plums diving into a swift flowing river, how precious that is, beautifully written dear Gypsy, well done, blessings Roy

This poem and presentation are not. perfect for the 5/7/5 contest! As usual your Author's Note adds so much and is very informative as far as poem form as well.

Best luck in the contest! :)) love, Alexan

Well done my friend. Beautiful use of colors. This is a great pattern of syllable count as well with less restriction.

Good job and thank you for sharing with us.

Perfect colour palette for the poem. Your words create vivid imagery of the petals slowly floating to the ground from above. A beautiful escape. A dreamy write. Jacqueline

This had a tragic feel. The use of torn and dive give it a suicidal feel. It is dramatic. I love the visual of the leaves falling into the river and being carried away. Beautiful piece of poetry. Gretchen

I like your use of alliteration and consonance in this poem. Plum blossom symbolizes internal beauty and the fallen blossoms add Beauty to the river's rapids.
