I'm sure you miss Evan everyday. You had such a strong marriage and knew how to support one another. You met the five-line poetic structure well and invoked that feeling of yearning for your beloved.
Best wishes in the contest!

    Thank you Helen, You can't help but miss someone who was a part of you for so many years. I'm not in grief but every now and again I really wish he could still be with me.

The imagery is so appropriate. Your poem is sad but lovely in the sense that I want to find your love and put him on the bed in the picture. Well done. Best for the contest.

What beautiful piece of artwork, and a fitting illustration, to this sad, but reflective five line poem, so many have lost their partners in life, and I think you're missing yours Beth, well done, blessings Roy

    Thank you Roy, Couples seldom leave this earth at the same time so at least one of every couple are likely to experience loss.

Your contest entry did a great job with imagery and emotion. I could feel the loneliness and heartache of missing a loved one. This is an excellent contest entry. Good luck with the contest.

Hi, Beth. I hope you are well

This looks like a good entry for the contest. Good luck with that!!

I was trying to double check that you have five lines. There is not a break between lines so you don't know where the first line ends and the next one begins. So I could not tell that it was five lines. Suggestion, put a space between lines.

Your poem is emotional. It has a lot of peaceful imagery

It is not rhymed and has no set meter. So, it's free verse.

I enjoyed reading your poem

Good job. Thank you for sharing.

    I tried my best to put space between those lines but it was way too much space so I finally gave up. Another font might work better but I like this one. Thanks for a great review.

Wish I had a six for you, Beth. Your words are so true. Nightitme always seems to be the worst, especially when I can't sleep. I lay there and stare at everything that was us. Loved your poem.
Smiles, Carol
