I like your poem- the presentation is very pretty- interesting type of poetry- tells an interesting story- reaction to a divorce for various reasons - not sure of the symbolism- planting hanging flowers- good job

Oh, I liked this, Marival, a form I've never come across before. But then again, I haven't paid too much attention either. I really liked it. I think I will join the club. Ulla :)))

Your words and presentation are beautiful in imagery and sadness.
In committing suicide, one has lost all hope. How important we now recognize the need to reach out to those needing support that we have a hotline.
Best regards,
Mary

Gypsy,
This is such a sad poem. You paint this atmosphere well with your beautiful words. How apt it is that you use chrysanthemums symbolic of grief), to symbolize the grief one feels after a failure and breakup. (He needs som daffodils for hope).
Wonderful work,
Gypsy,
Blessings,
Cindy

Your words were inspirational, giving that it was a poem about suicide, Gypsy. All it took were words about planting the crimson ivy and white mums. I understand that white mums is in Japan a recognition of grief. Perhaps it should also show the reality of the situation. Very well done, sadly enjoyed. Blessed be n hugs.

It Aldo, read well and flowed well with no Grammar Issues.
The Adjective and Objective Contents were both Excellent and Exceptional, while Descriptive Measures Aligned Perfectly.
Good luck with this one.

Interesting about the white chrysanthemum. I always thought of the chrysanthemum as the official seal of Japan. But it's always a funeral flower in France. I liked that the man mourns his marriage by planting the white chrysanthemum and the ivy I guess will grow around it.

This is a sad write about the trauma of divorce and lack of money causing some people to contemplate suicide. Tomorrow brings many surprises, we should always sleep on our troubles as they never seem as bad in the morning, love Dolly x

Perhaps that's where we get our names "mums" from, when we refer to our female parent, I've wondered about the expression, whereas we call the males "dads" but a wonderful Kai katoba, blessings Roy
