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

The poem "Contentedness" captures a sense of freedom and tranquility through its imagery of soaring, drifting, and reaching for the skies. The repetition of short, impactful lines creates a dreamy and ethereal atmosphere that effectively conveys the theme of contentedness. However, the poem could benefit from further development to provide more depth and complexity to the emotions and ideas being explored. Consider expanding on the imagery or introducing additional layers of meaning to enhance the overall impact of the poem.

Contentedness

That sounds wonderful! I think I'd remove all punctuation, just let the poem do all those things, too...
Thank you!
