Good style, flow, structure, imagery - the whole bit! You've got a good idea telling this from a fashionista point of view. LOL Nicely done - thanks for sharing and good luck!

Nice poem and you always do a great job with imagery and rhythm. The artwork that you chose went well. Good luck with the contest.

What a great metaphor for holding on to the past. We all do it. It is hard to let go of things that meant so much once. Great write. joan marie

Dear Sixteezkid,

Well done poem with the exact number of syllables in the style called for.
The choice of artwork was interesting too and your words are thought provoking.

I will have to look over the garments in my closet now to see which ones talk to me. ;~)

    You've not been paying attention to their speaking with you?? I'm puzzled. They can be so noisy at times! Ha! Thanks much for your great review. With regards, Sue

Oh, I mentioned how we become cynics as we age in "About a Life"! So it's happening to you already? This is a great little piece. Not as innocent as it appears. Really causes some thought. well done

    Yes, you did write about it. And yes, I totally knew where you were coming from. Gets worse with age. Or is cynicism the truth revealed versus our naivete in youth? Hmmm..... I think the rhythm of the minute makes it sound more cutesy than it should. Ha! Thanks much for your review, Jude. :-) Sue

This is an excellent poem for the contest. I can visualise this dress (I have one just like it!), and I enjoyed the wryness you use to describe it. Well done. :)

    Is it tattered and torn like my cynical dress? Ha! I have on my "trusting" slacks today. Thanks much for your great review. Always appreciated, Sue
