A short poem, Darlene, but the image you present makes us think, reflect and look for answers as to what could have caused such a situation. ~ Regards // paul

My friend, you did wonderfully well. New poetry forms are always hard to get into. Especially so short forms. Yet yours speaks of expectation. promise and mystery. A very creative concept to fill into such a brief space/poem. I think yours is very fine. God bless..

A form I haven't heard of but there are many forms not listed on soup. I'm sure at the end of the day those chairs will be used. Tom

I want to tell you that the only way I could put this poem through is using the Englyn form. The reason is this poem is called a Elfchen. It is not listed here. it does exist. i looked it up.
