Hi Robina - correct format and syllable count and a pretty good message. After trying so hard to improve my writing skills, very believeable. Good luck in your contest. I entered as well, so hope you get second place! Bill

This poem is well structured not disjointed,it pictures in so little words how to develop creative minds. The words are simple and direct and the rhymes are not forced.

Would have wished that the poem had another stanza telling us more about the hard work needed in the building of creative minds.

Beautiful,direct naani poetry, great job.

Yes crativity is a gift. Sometimes things come easily and sometimes not. It usually helps your state of mind when you enjoy what you've created.

Keep writing

A very well written naani poetry. Yes, that's true, creative minds are not inborn, yet it can be learned through deligence and to know is to try. I enjoyed how you used the language, it's witty and punchy.

Nicely done. The piece reads well, with a smooth meter. Love the message here, and I agree, it is hard work. I envy those that have more natural talent than I :-)

Thank you for a great read.

Those simple short lines say it all. No "beat about the bush," but a straightforward approach to passing across its crystal-clear message to the reader. It's one fascinating poem. The choice of artwork further enhance its appeal. Excellent job.

a good poem, but i think at times, one is born with a gift. yes - naturally gifted. there is no one with no talent but many do not know they have

Thank you for sharing this thought, it was beautifully crafted, when you have not many words each one counts.
It has made me think differently about what are talents and what has to be strived for.

Your author notes are superb-you have good imagery and a good flow with your poem-your Naani has good syllable count-you write the truth-creative minds are a gift which we don't realize--great job.
