Hi, I read your poem and must apologise for wanting to comment. I mean no ill-will by doing so, just that I like the sound of your poem but stayed with these thoughts that I communicate to you here.

The opening line hooked me. It is simple and natural and evokes a certain pleasant feeling.

In the second line you use “stick out like a sore thumb” which I find unfresh and over-used. It killed the initial euphoria I had upon entering the poem.

Then I was intrigued again:
“How did it end up in the middle of the field,
Hidden from the machine’s blades — it remains concealed.”

I wanted to know.

Everything went well for me… I didn’t even notice the end-rhymes. Then the last line used a cliché: “in dire straights”, and misspelt, too (in dire straits is the right spelling).

I love the way you approached and told this poem (otherwise I wouldn’t have stayed to comment). I mean no harm. Just thoughts I had on reading your work.
Best

Thank you for commenting, I fixed the spelling mistake and apologize for the clichés. I don’t write poetry that often but I will avoid using them in the future.
