Comment from ReaThomas
I think your poem is an excellent example of free verse. The words are profound and that's why I awarded this a 5. However, I must agree with another reviewer that it doesn't fall in, technically, with the intended 5-7-5 format. I would also recommend not writing in capital letters as it can seem quite aggressive, and also distracts from what is otherwise a wonderful piece.
Much love,

Comment from jpafford
I loved reading your poem and it deserves a 5....but since this is contest entry for a 5 7 5 poem, I must point out to you that your poem is not a 5 7 5 poem; it is a great poem but not 575 - what the 575 is
lst line - 5 syllables
2ndline - 7 syllables
3rd line - 5 syllables
only 3 lines and must stick to the 575..understand now?
I'd post your poem in another category where you aren't limited by format
