I like this pen bird. Tell it to visit me )

There's a lot of poem comparison poems - i think every poet in the world has tried it once at least. This is by far one of the most original, honestly. I read here what i've never read before anywhere else.

Hughs "The Thought Fox" comes to mind.

Great stuff.

this .. in five minutes? wow ... i'm impressed.

i know that . a lot of people have written poems about actually writing poetry but your take on it very much poetic and so much nicer to see than the usual cliched versions.

and i especially like the last line :)

I really like this. It's got a nice sound to it, like the syllables are very purposefully chosen. It reminds me of Japanese poetry. Interesting concept. There's nothing wrong with writing quickly - a lot of the best writing is done right in the moment and focuses on right then.

I dunno, time is no measure of quality. I won first place in a contest with a poem that took me fifteen minutes to write and illustrate.

This is beautiful. I read this earlier and was reminded agin of it today.

It's a hell of a five minute poem.

I think that this is...cute. That sounds awful, but it's really the first word that came to mind. Good imagery throughout the whole bit, and the flow is incredibly well established for five minutes of work. Nice job.

Pretty good for a five minute poem. You have some simple but nice imagery, I liked the third stanza best.
