What an excellent poem and picture presentation supporting - a real eye popper! Certain to provide attention to your poem - nice. Your poem has the proper word count - nicely incorporating 'ebb and flow' into it - life's motion - yen and yang - nicely done - wishing you well in the contest - Bless AP

Yes, mankind's journey keeps ebbing but time continues and we won't know the outcome beyond the Age of Man, except we what God has shared with us in His Word. Best wishes in the contest!

Comment from Pam (respa)
-Very good artwork to go with your poem, kahpot.
-I agree with your note, but it will take time.
The question is, how much time?
-You wrote a very good poem with
effective imagery and a good topic.
-A very good opening line, followed
by man struggling in his journey of life.
-Very good concluding lines showing
the contrast to the opening line.
-Very well done. Good luck in the contest.

Hi Kahpot, your poem is a strong contest entry. I wish you the best.
Of note:
while man's embattled journey
continues to ebb
(Nice)
Well done. Beautiful artwork. As this is a contest entry, I wish you good luck. Margaret

Comment from Mark D. R.
kahpot,
With all the current political rigamarole, one hopes the tide will turn for the better. Let's hope the (embattled) journey is not difficult.
Your artwork selected is exceptional. My go-to for illustrations is FanArt too.

The tide never stops its ebb and flow and the time seems endless when only us mortals have our limits. Much enjoyed, this post makes you think, love Dolly x

I like these thoughts, with the contrast of time flowing ceaselessly on, and fast, while our lives ebb and we are like a vapour which soon dissipates. Best wishes for the contest.

An excellent entry for the 5-7-5 Poetry Contest. Boy, isn't that the truth. time just keeps flowing faster and faster and I feel like I am paddling in place while life goes by me. Nice analogy. good luck in the contest.

Comment from SimianSavant
Content is good. Presentation needs work -- your line height is too narrow. It's a problem with certain fonts especially when they are enlarged. If you can't figure out a way to do it in the "advanced" editor, you can add the CSS property "line-height:{decimal}" to the parent tag in the basic editor. It defaults to 1 and you will need at least a 1.3 to prevent line collisions. Let me know if you have questions.
