Contests attract poets with limited self motivation. The results are usually low compared to self-inspired poetry, so I rate it on a lower scale. Thus you get five stars for a three-star poem. Not you fault. Just poor motivation for poetry.

Inspired poetry paints a thousand pictures, contest poetry .... eh.

Thanks for the review and well worn cliche. I don't see how this formulaic reviewing would create inspiration in anyone.Seems to be the antithesis of what this site strives for.Cheers, j

It is a turn-about cliche, so not a cliche at all.

I don't just enter contests, one of my stories was just published in a travel magazine. No prompt. Cheers j
