This poem, Whatever?, follows the rules and projects the freedom of having no framing, rhyming, alliteration, or purpose to worry about. Nice.

Arir,

Excellent entry for the No Rules Poetry Contest. I'm with you, I love poems without rules.

Good free verse with great presentation and imagery. It flows well with descriptive words that paint a clear mental picture.

Good luck in the contest.
blessed be.

Actually of course there is no such thing as a no rules poem because the act of stating there are no rules is a rule in itself. Nevertheless you have made a good argument in favour of personal freedom.

This is a fine poem that carries an important message. I agree about no- rules poem prompts, though I can't help but wonder what makes a poem a poem rather than a specially formatted bit of prose. I do like to see either meter/rhythm (and/or) figurative language, hopefully with interesting vocabulary that paints a word picture. Not sure your poem has much of that, but I still am sure its a poem. I especially like the following stanza for its repetition and alliteration:
"Whatever I do
can be wherever I am
and whatever I can."

I like this fun poem, Ali. Perhaps a No Rules Poem is one I could attempt to write sometime. You did a good job of expressing yourself. Good luck in the contest.

And isn't that a nice feeling, Alie? I like this lovely little no rules poem, that gives us 'You.' You have used the contest well, my friend, I love the simplicity, the honesty, and the fun of it. Very well done, and good luck!! :)) Sandra xx

Aryr,
You have demonstrated a fun use of the No Rules poem. You have skillfully created and mixed a rainbow of colors and simple words to show what you want to show and be what you want to be, without any rules.
