Comment from June Sargent
I've never read a cleave poem before today and this one is exceptional in the way the words flow. And the three poems made sense! And expresses a profound truth. Well done.

Hello June!
Thank you ever so much for your exceptional rating and review. This is my second cleave poem...ever... May be my last! :)
But it was challenging to pen...I love writing in constricted formats...yet I also am a huge fan of free verse! Too funny!
Thank you again; your sentiments are deeply appreciated.

Excellent Poem! The author's words are kind, heartfelt and
thought provoking. The artwork compliments both the words
and theme of this poem. The reader pondered on the theme
of this poem.

I have never ventured writing a cleave poem, I believe I am not cut for this poetic form. I don't want so many rules restricting my flow of thought. But I definitely enjoyed reading this excellent poem. Keep writing. All the best.

I think this is one of the hardest form and you did it very well. It scares me. Every way you read it it gives you the meaning of forgiveness.
Good luck in the contest.

Hello dragonpoet,
The cleave format really isn't too difficult. I began with the poem on the left, and then wiggled in the one on the right, and then adjusted where needed so that together it all flowed together as one! Just make certain you have plenty of coffee when you attempts one of these! :)
Thank you!

My pleasure, Diane.

A cleave poem is one poem I have never heard of but, it seems a bit complicated but, I still want to give it a try. You certainly did well in your performance of the poem, and I don't know why I said performance but, it just seems to fit? Excellent write. Tony

Hi Tony!
Snowbound.
House is clean.
Had to find something creative to do.
So...I wrote my cleave poem.
Not a performance.
Just a challenging format...to see if I could do it.
Glad you enjoyed!
Thank you!

In my opinion, another beautiful poem by this gifted writer - while I paid little attention to the actual construction, the message was clear to me and written smoothly in its free verse style, and is fully compliant with the prompt. Much luck in the contest...
