The simple vase against a black backdrop with unassuming flowers catch attention and draw praise. Beautiful lines and apt image.

Much is conveyed in your short lines of depth. I enjoyed your write. Is free verse your favorite form? I may not get an answer so consider it a rhetorical question. Good to read you, and to be the first to comment. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

I go through phases ~ I do enjoy writing free verse but rhyme is very satisfying... this particular poem here is a bit of a shape or symmetrical poem.
