"Sour Grapes", is short, succinct and very much to the point. With a minimum of words, this talented poet has told it as it is. Good luck with the contest!

Comment from Bill Schott
This 2-5-2, Sour Grapes, has the right set up and seems to place the traditionally bad sour grapes in the same cornucopia as lemons, which life sometimes gives you.

Bill, you nailed it!
Comment from Frank Jauregui
Great entry for the 2-5-2 contest. While it is true that sour grapes make the best fine wine sometimes, I think the other times it just makes some of the worse people whine. LOL!

Comment from Gloria ....
Hey, great job with this contest, author. Tis true that sour grapes can make some fine wine and of course then are just the thing within which to drown one's sorrows.
A thoughtful and worthy entry and I wish you great luck with the voters.

I rather like this very witty contest entry, I must admit I didn't know how to take at first, but then, revenge is a dish...and that wonderful ambiguity one needs in a short form poem, makes this a good entry, well done, good luck, blessings, Roy

Comment from Ben Colder
Sometimes? Here in our woods sometimes a person can find what we call Fox grapes. Wild and strong and makes a good wine -sometimes. LOL. Good poem.

Comment from harmony13
The first two lines of this poem flow and connect well. The last line
put the poem all together. The author's poem made me ponder
on the these words. The artwork is perfect and compliments this
poem well. Have a great weekend!

Sour Grapes
Hello my friend
Good syllable count and connection between lines. A fine entry for the 2-5-2 writing prompt contest. I like the presentation too. I don't like the last line. It leaves the poem hanging without an ending. I know you did it on purpose but it seems like a short cut to stick to the Syllable count.

That is the intent... makes the reader ponder sometimes... life throws us sour grapes yet we can still make a fine result still happen.
Comment from Amanda Louise Davis
I really like this poem. It's very true, and it sort of sounds like it could be a metaphor for life. I appreciate that. I hope you do well in the contest you did this for.

Comment from Pam (respa)
-Nice artwork and
presentation.
-The syllable count is good,
along with the topic.
-I like how you use
sour grapes in the poem,
and not just in the wine!
-You also leave a lot
to the imagination with
one small word: "sometimes."
-A good entry; good luck!
