This 3-5-3, Eerie!, has the right set up and sets the tone for how we will see our once busy streets for the next month. The silence and stillness will be mind-numbing soon.

This work has reached the exceptional level

What appeals to me in this little poem is that it captures brilliantly the mood of the times. The repetition of the sibilant 's' is most effective and the internal rhyme of 'eerie streets,' adds to the feeling of loneliness the poem so imaginatively displays. Only three lines but I think an exceptional three lines. Well done!

The other night on the news Chicago's empty streets were shown. You convey this strangeness very well in only 11 syllables. Using S words adds to the ATMOSPHERE you wish to evoke. Rod

The illustration you have chosen complimented your title and poem perfectly.

Seeing the pictures from the camera of the streets- it is eerie!

Best of luck with the 3-5-3 writing prompt contest.
