Excellent

This is a great poem! You made sure that green eyed monster was described wonderfully with your words. Nice flow and meter, and I enjoyed the rhyming too. Thank you for sharing.

Hi

This looks like a good entry for the contest. Good luck with that!!

I've seen several entries for this contest. Most talk about a betrayal by a lover, and then in some of those the lover and their partner are killed.

Then there was this other one where somebody was jealous that their poems weren't getting as much recognition as they should. And they were right they were a very good poet

And now you come along with a totally different take. You are talking about jealousy before anything happens to cause it. You are just talking about jealousy being possible, not having already occurred.

So that is your unique contribution into this contest

I thought you rhymed very well with no meter but your poem flowed easily

Here it should be blackened

" conceived by a blacken soul."

I enjoyed reading your poem

Good job. Thank you for sharing.

Very well done! Your words are true, although it's often difficult to pray for the jealous. It's a major flaw that eats away at the one who has this feeling. Your picture is excellent, too!
