I love your poem and the photo that so appropriately accompanies it. Check your first line. It is six syllables and needs to be five. You could try 'til instead of until.

I have checked it twice on two different syllable sites. The problem seems to be the word didn't. Both sites say one syllable. Thanks for the heads up and the read.

-Good image and
presentation.
-Your note is appreciated.
-Good description of the
day "the block fell."
-A good concluding line
showing what happened
to your muse.
-You have 6 syllables in line one;
you could just shorten 'until.'
-Good luck in the contest.

Thanks for the close read, but I check two different syllable sites. Both say line 1 has five syllables. I think the word didn't is the problem both sites say one syllable. Thanks for the close read.

I don't know if you checked the dictionary, but it is a good idea when you are getting different information. didn't is two syllables (did/n't) and until is 2 syllables. (un/til)

I will check thanks for caring. To be safe I'm going to change until to till.

You are welcome. I think you did the right thing.
