Thank you very much for using my work to accompany your beautiful poem.
You chose the perfect words to match the syllable requirements and to make a meaningful point that provokes moving emotion and thought. I'm happy to have had a photo that goes with your work so perfectly.

A very well-written Tetractys poem. A child is very sensitive and can quickly feel unloved when others around them are treating them without love or care they will feel alone.

Your use of the Tetractys form to frame your message is very effective. The artwork you selected parallels the theme, and the final line is quite compelling. Best wishes in the contest- Joan

Well, so far this is the first poem that I read that has syllables right for this type of poem. You poem brings a vivid image of a coldhearted person neglecting a child. Good luck in the contest.

Hi, this is a very poignant poem. The image of the leaf frozen in the snow works so well and is a wonderful image to represent the early departure of a child. I noticed no errors and found this poem a pleasure to read and review, cheers, Ana.

    Thank you for sharing your insights. It's sad but a realistic commentary. It's what I thought of when I saw the frozen heart shaped leaf.
