Short and to the point, but lacking in nothing. This was perfect the way it was. This is so true of most days for most people. Excellent write and good luck in my contest.
-
Succinct and well stated. Wonderful use of words and space. The idea is not weighted down with unnecessaries. I think this deserved at least an HM.
Thank you for sharing.

That's why tissues are better than hankies. If you blow your nose it's _supposed_ to go red. Fact of life. I said so.

i must be in a different mood cos this time it made me go aw....how cute.tissues make your nose red so you should use fabric hankies that wouldnt ring as well though would it after today there wont be enough fabric handkerchiefs
-
should i be crying cos it made me giggle out loud hehehe humans are so funny oh dahling dont you just love the drama of it all

short, but perfect. you capture sorrow so well in three, short, simple lines. it's something i know i can relate too, and am sure so many other's can.
simple, powerful. i love short pieces that can say everything they need too without cluttering up with un-necessary words. you were completely successful in this. nicely done.
keep up the good work! thank you for entering and best of luck in the contest <3 -
aww..short and sad..but good!
-
i would give you three rounds of applause for this one if possible, just simple and powerful, three lines of meaning, you have said all you need to say without clutter.
outstanding.
-
oo!
havent seen a poem from you for an age now.
this is really evocative, and so relative to everyones feelings. -
Beautifully AWish.
AW. This made me say aw and pout in only three lines. That's pretty flippin good. lol. Well, or bad, it depends on how you look at it. After a couple days ago, there haven't been enough tissues for my heart. <3 *Jo*
