An interesting perspective on death. I thought you used imagery very well to show the transition and final demise. Well done. Thanks for sharing it and good luck in the contest.

You did a great job with this "off and on rhyme" for the writing prompt. The poem made me sad, but that's a good thing. It means you got a strong response from the reader. I also liked the picture. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

I was drawn to this as the weeping willow is one of my favorite trees. I wanted one in my garden but my husband thinks they look too sad. This is a lovely poem. You have done a great job creating an alternating free verse/rhyme verse poem - the flow is maintained despite the alternating style between verses. Thank you for sharing.
