Wow....this reminds me of some poems I read years ago. I don't mean you have taken words from other poems..it's the style/layout that you have presented here. The rhyme perhaps?...I'm not sure what it is but..I am sure that I absolutely loved this one...I will come back and read this again I'm sure...

I really liked it,the way you have depicted the persistence we all display in our daily life,to fight all that is bad,to be at a place better than the one we were yesterday,I love it all,great poem.Thank you for sharing it!

I wasn't sure when I started to read this that I liked the repetition, but towards the end I started to enjoy it and look for the repeated lines.

I also think it fits in well with the message that it keeps coming back, and I like how you made the sweeping dust different each time you mentioned it.

I think this poem makes you feel connected to a character, so you can imagine her, feel empathy for her and understanding. It reminded me very much fo the lady in the street who is always out sweeping her garden and the street in front of it, she always seems so lonely and like this sweeping has become a natural coping thing for her, but of what, who knows.

Interesting write.

Judging Comment:

Bill wrote a wonderful gem of a poem this week!

I can visualize a woman walking with a style and grace about her, but as I read on the message is much deeper.

The journey of the day begins with the same routine and rhythmic chaos, turning a possible ordinary day into a thought provoking whirlwind of emotions. A well written and unique poem that leaves the reader in awe! Very nice!!
