Yes indeed - the 'mini' poetic form often produces little gems- a large grain of Truth at the core of this succinct poetic form of the 2-3-2 and a great pic

Your poem is well structured and adheres to the required 2-3-2.

Your picture and your poem went well together.

A touching theme!

Good luck with the contest.

Oh yes, poetry is invariably written from the heart, it can be cerebral, angry, predictive, philosophical, but it's still written from a heart of passion, and can be a multiplicity of genres, but still the heart is part. Beautifully written, great entry, good luck blessings, Roy

I would agree with that statement. That is one thing that sets us poets apart from others who listen with their heads. Or, rather, minds. Either way, I prefer being a poet who listens to the world and to their selves with their hearts. I like the photo used for this piece. It drew me into reading and reviewing this. A young child with their hand over their heart, touching a tree, as though listening intently to its ethereal 'voice'. The child has a grownups hat on, which suggests that they will one day be a poet themselves when their muse strikes them for the very first time. Well thought out, and so true.
Take care, Jesse

This is a simple poem with a strong truth in it. This little boy is a future poet it seems for he seem to be listening to nature and taking it into his heart. It almost seems like he is praying.
Good luck in the cotnest
Keep writing
Happy New Years.

How true this poem is. Real poets listen with their hearts. When I write poetry, it is never abstract, difficult to figure out, or very confusing. I write from the heart. I listen with my heart and I write from my heart. Your poem is lovely and the picture is absolutely precious and just the image for this poem.Good luck in the contest!

Yes, nicely done author. This is exactly what poets and so cute with this pitch-perfect artwork choice.

It's incredible how much can be said in few words, and you've done it.

Best luck to you in the voting booth. :))

A very well-written 2-3-2 poem about the ability of poets to listen with their hearts and see with their soul the beauty beyond the obvious ugliness of many things.
