Love it - what a wonderful, well -expressed poem and laced with a subtle hint of wry humor - I guess only a Fanstorian would get the joke - ha ! ha!- well done!

I loved this! It's sort of funny and not about hope or God so I enjoyed it. Good luck with the contest. Maybe we'll get some different challenges! You never know.

I love it! The thought by itself deserves 6-stars. I don't always vote on 5-7-5 because I feel the same way. But I'm reading all of them so I can learn. Thank you for expressing my thoughts.

    Yes, we tend to have a lot of these short contests on here, that's for sure. Thank you for the great review and big six offer, MobileLiz. I'm glad you liked this silly little piece.

The poem complies with contest rules. Does the author feel that there are too many haiku contests?They are popular, easy, quick and generate dollars. However, too much of a good thing often does turn into a bad thing. That is the law of averages. Thanks for sharing. Best wishes

    Lol. Yes, that's what he's doing, complaining that there's too many short contests. Haha. They do manage to generate the cash flow on here, that's for sure. Thank you for the great review and generous stars, Bonnie.

So true, Mystery Author. Great job with your entry. The image is perfect, the color scheme words, and your message is loud and clear. I'm waiting for the day when the prompt is write a 1-2-1 OR write a ONE word poem.
Best wishes.
Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan

    Thank you for the great review, Jan. Yeah, one time I wrote a silly piece like this and said, "What's next, a zero, one, zero?" Lol. Thank you for the awesome review and generous stars, Jan. I'm glad you liked my little rant.

This work has reached the exceptional level

I was thinking about entering this yet-another-5-7-5 contest. But, you just won it in my book, so I'm going to sit this one out.

Well done, Mystery Writer. Well done.

Have a great week.

    Lol. Yeah, there seems to be quite a few of these little prompts floating around nearly every day. The sad part is when a thought provoking contest comes along, it's hard to even get the 5 entries needed for it to go to booth. Thank you so much for the fantastic review and the giant sixer, Erika. Go ahead and jump on in. I'm sure my little rant won't fly. I just love throwing money away while griping. Lol. I'm glad you liked this silliness. Thank you again. Have yourself a fantastic week too, Erika.
