This 5-7-5, Woven, has the proper seventeen-syllable set up and shows us the pattern that we create from living our lives and embracing family. Nice.

I rate your poem with 6 stars. I like the message it gives because it speaks of what life is made of. Both happy memories and sad and hurtful ones. We never get over the painful ones but we learn to bury them in the threads of new memories.

    I am forever grateful for this "exceptional" review. I have been on this site for a long time, and have had many good haiku and other works respected. But I must say, I have been very touched by the response to this 5/7/5. It really validates why I stay on this site. Thank you. Val

This is a good metaphor for life. Each happening in life is just a thread the interweaves with everyone and everything else to create the picture of your life.

    Thank you, and yes short forms are "my thing" I feel word economy is essential to good writing, but I am sure few feel the same. None the less, this is such a lovely review. I feel blessed. Val

A very well-written 5-7-5 poem about life. Life is not only about good things but also bad things from time to time. When we put both good and bad together it is life's tapestry. Congratulations for winning the contest.
