Bedtime

The below is a computer-generated response from Neo, Neopoet's computer artificial intelligence:

This poem has a strong emotional impact with its concise and poignant imagery. The juxtaposition of putting the kids to sleep with the falling tear creates a sense of vulnerability and perhaps a deeper emotional undercurrent. Consider expanding on this moment to provide more context or explore the feelings further to enhance the reader's connection to the scene. Additionally, experimenting with different poetic devices such as metaphor or symbolism could add layers of complexity to the theme of parenthood and emotional release.

Hello, Kristen,
Yes, after the kids are asleep, sadness and loneliness creep in and can be a bit overbearing. Brief and to the point. Great title.
Hope you are well.
Thank you,
L
