Comment from BethShelby
This is an excellent 5 line poem. Yes there are high and lows for all of us and we seem to need them both to make us a whole person. The picture illustustrates the yin and yang. It all balances out. Nicely done. Good luck in the contest.

Hello Melissa,
This is quite a profound piece, and the most creative use of a very limited form.
Your writing goes from strength to strength, and in this piece you are articulating a very complex observation, clearly and with style.
It would be fitting if you won
Let's see.
I wish you well with your continued writing.
Cheers

Hello Phill. I hope you are doing well and enjoying the season you are in... both figuratively and literally ;). Now, let's see, you are having winter in South Africa aren't you?? I'm currently with Hubby at the local swimming pool enduring the heat and drought. I DO want to tell you how much you encourage me when you share your thoughts about my writing. It has been a challenge to find time lately, but hopefully I can write more this summer. At least I hope so. Hugs, my friend.

Very nice job in this five-liner, Melissa. A lot covered in just five lines. That is a very accurate observation. Good luck in the contest. We will be competitors.

So true because we're real people with two sides, much like a coin. Beautiful, soulish poem of this mystery within.
Sending you my best today as always, dear Melissa, and my very best for the 5-line poetry contest.

Comment from Rachelle Allen
You're totally right about this. How do we feel good if we've never felt bad, and vice versa. No one's life is so charmed that they don't get thrown some curveballs! Compactly perfect poem, my dear. You are always dead-center on the mark!! Good luck in the 5 Line Poem contest! xoxox

Hey Rachelle. Thanks so much. I guess I'm in a reflective mood today. You are right... we are all thrown curveballs now and again. Hugs!

Comment from Jasmine Girl
This is a philosophical poem about the complexity of our emotion. We need the Low in order to appreciate the High.
Well done and best luck in the contest.
