Hello author, well done, well said 5-7-5 poem. In 17 syllables, your words speak of wisdom and experience. Of special note:

Equally Hopeless
(Like the saying goes, "You can't get blood out of a stone.")

Well chosen photo. As this is a contest entry, I wish you good luck.

Makes sense, but then I ask when has love ever made sense. It arrives unannounced and hangs about, sometimes for a day, or night, with others for life. Who is dealing the cards anyhow?

This one is excellent and made me stop and give it a second read because it was so good. I bet I am not alone liking this entry. I'll be keeping a close eye on the voting to see if I'm right. Good luck to you.

    My pleasure! (though I have no idea why my review went through twice! It was so gracious of you not to write, "Helloooo! How many times are you planning to say the same thing!"

This is a poignant and well-stated 5-7-5 poem. The message is clear. The visual fits. However, the text is too small under that large visual. I would enlarge the text, make it that dark blue of the stems and center it. Those changes would enhance your presentation of this well-stated poem. Good luck in the contest.

    You are welcome. It's so much better under the visual. Thanks for being receptive to my suggestion.
