Hello Koyel~writing again

Thank you for sharing your work with us!

Hi there! I remember your name from years ago working with Talent Pond. Do you remember? What a cool surprise. I found your piece on the Please Review page.

I'm a novice at free verse but I can offer what I felt as I read and I sincerely hope it's helpful or at least interesting. :) To my knowledge, the most important thing in free verse is the line breaks. With that said, I felt two places it felt slightly awkward as I read.

In the first stanza, I wanted to take a break while reading the last line after temporary. "like these" felt like it should be in a new line.

In the third stanza, it seems 'like' in the second line is more connected to the next idea "happiness or sorrow" making it -

is permanent
like happiness or sorrow,
pleasure or pain,

Other than those observations, I really felt this was a strong poem that projected emotion and had good word choices. It's a thought-provoking piece and it makes me want to visit your other work. Again, thank you for sharing this. I really enjoyed reading it. Good luck with the contest.
