I love your choice of a poem and your own answer to it -- in fact, I would rate this as it deserves if only I just one more six available. I just assigned my last one. But I would be very surprised if this is not the winner of this contest.

I actually think I preferred your response, perhaps because it seemed a bit more realistic and relatable, and more mature in its expression. Very well done. Sending best wishes for your entry.

this was a good entry for the contest. I would have done it a bit different weaving my comments in and out after each stanza but this works fine whatever works for you.

This work has reached the exceptional level

This is a beautiful response to Anna Hempstead Branch's poem. I like how you added to it with rebirth, and you concluded with the same idea, adding blameless and less forlorn.

I really like how you achieved the same thing as the original poem but with more modern and relatable speech. I liked yours much better and it conveys the healing blessedness of sleep. Best wishes in the contest!
