Author,

Your 5-7-5 entry is in great form and it has a lovely presentation as well.
Your message of having deep roots with the ability to be flexible was well
conveyed in your well crafted poem.

Best wished,
Linda

This meets the qualification of the Tree-Hugger prompt as to form, subject and syllable count. The presentation is very pretty. Good luck, Jeanie Mercer

This is such excellent advice--one of those sayings that should be in a thought for the day book or taped to the mirror to give a little boost in those relective moments.

Good luck n the contest.

Wow! What a profound little poem this is - so very wise! Such use of simile and metaphor is my favourite. It's easy to understand, yet layered with meaning. I wish you all the best in the contest with this tiny gem!

Well done. You nailed the format. I too am a tree hugger.
I like the idea of it, deeply grounded in the earth, with flexible limbs
I wouldn't change a thing.
Please keep writing. I will be looking forward to future offerings from you.

Very nice application of the contest topic, bringing it down to humans. If we are like a tree, we're not easily shaken, but the flexible branches help us to keep peace.
Well done. :)

Beautiful picture to enhance your lovely 5/7/5 poem. I do yoga and we do a "tree pose". Your words are perfect to say while holding the tree pose. In the pose, we are grounded to the earth but must remain flexible. Beautiful.

Great job on this 5-7-5 poem! It should make a nice entry for the contest. I find it hard to say so much with such few words. If we were more grounded in nature and all it has to offer we would all be better off. Good luck and happy writing!
