I read this poem and I really enjoyed it. I can relate to the subject of the frustrations of life expressed. It is a great free verse poem. You write very well with much emotion that most people can relate too. Thank you another wonderful poem.

I enjoyed reading this Pantoum, which meets the requirements of the contest. This is quite a fun entry, which flows freely and was an enjoyable read. Good luck in the contest and warmest regards, Marijke :o)

This is a delight. Loved it and identified with it. It's an ongoing job, taking care of the plants and gardens we love--or NOT! Humorous, well done, nice form and rhyming. Much good luck in the contest. Marilyn

This is a nicely written Pantoum poem about your yard and the frustrations of keeping things groomed. I certainly can relate to broken"lawnmowers" This poem made me smile. I never wrote a Pantoum poem and it seems you met the criteria so nicely. Well done!

What an exceptionally funny, witty, clever, creative poem that you have penned here.
The downhill devolution of a mans energy and thrust for life and giving up on his garden, lawn, birds, hedges and so on. Why? Due to the failing grace with his woman slowly but surely. How sad and pathetic he is. Exceptional. Good luck! Tony Bronk

You say the design is simple but I can tell that you have put a lot of time and effort into making this satirical poem. A very good job on this one.

You have done a wonderful job of this, not knowing what in the world was a Pantoum, your explanation below your verse sent me back to the verse to re-read and in the end it all made sense. Well done and thanks for sharing and the best of Aussie luck to you. Don't think the lawnmower can be salvaged.
Cheers, Kev.

    Thank you for reviewing. It is fun writing for new types of poetry as this is new for me and I am finding so many types of poetry that I did not know existed.

A well-written Pantoum. There is many things we like to do but when we get older we don't have the energy and strength to carry on with those things we loved to do.

I think you've been taking a crafty peep into my garde. Lol. I've even got the ants but at least they're not carpenters. It just got on top of me. Now it's a mess I just can't be bothered. Better things to do like writing poetry. And I like the pantoum form. It works well here as all the jobs crowd in on you and repeat their demands on your time.
