Beautifully written triolet about hopes and dreams, burdens lifted and a brand new start. When a poem speaks of so much in so few words, I consider it a very well written piece of art. Judy

Good job on this poem. It gives hope. I enjoyed reading this. It was smooth flowing and your word choice made it a effortless read. I found no errors.

Excellent use of the rhyme scheme and the choral tonal quality gives it a forceful yet gentle and powerful quality. There are no errors that i could find, either in structure or in grammar, and it was a pleasure to review this work.

An excellent triolet that carries a positive uplifting message behind it! The rhyme and rhythm were spot on, and I liked your personification of time as a friend (which makes a big difference to its usual personification as a thief or death-like deity).

What a wonderful poem! There is so much power in knowledge of hope. I think you did a great job conveying this in your poem.
Hard times are that but then hope steps in and there is an end in sight, the knowledge that hard times will not last forever. This is the interpretation I take from your wonderful writing. Thank you so much for sharing.

RSayre, you interpreted it exactly as intended. To be honest, yesterday was not good, but I always know that in time, all will be ok. And, Voila! Today I'm great. Ha!! So glad you really enjoyed this poem. And thank you for your very kind review and words! With warm regards, Sue

Simply wonderful. I liked the pic, too... and that you did not name the poem hope. The repeat lines flow nicely, not glaring refrain. Good strong message. BRAVO!

JoAnna Lee, so glad you enjoyed this! (ha! - glad I didn't name it hope - no way). Glad you liked the punctuation changes in the repeated lines. I really appreciate your review and your very specific comments. With warmest regards, Sue
