Comment from Erika Whittle
I never would have thought of writing a biography in the form of poetry. It's a great idea and you did a fantastic job!
I don't know if it's just me but the stanza with Cherie Amour seems to read a little off. It's kind of like the flow is slightly different from the rest of the poem.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading your work!

Thank you so much, Erika, for your kind and thoughtful review! If you read Cherie Amour as in french the strong beat is on the second syllable of each word: cheRIE aMOUR. I hope this helps the read. Take care Debbie

As always, your poems are inspiring and practical to the life they compliment. I truly enjoy how you incorporate their artistry in defining their lives. Thank you for sharing your artistry.

Comment from Enrico Langfordino
'Ebony and Silver'. I love the ending to this wonderful personal saga Debbie. Sorry I have been so long in answering. You know, technical problems. His life story was well worthy of your clever assessment. And what story. The explanations alongside each stanza are a worthy addition.

Thank you for this wonderful coverage of one of my favorites! I think in middle school is when I started to buy 45 single hits and songs by him were the first I bought. I didn't know about her personal life at all nor about his work to make MLKJr Day a holiday. Great information here!

Thank you so much, Helen, for this kind and thoughtful review! Yes, he definitely worked hard to get that day recognised as a holiday and put his own career on pause in the meantime. Take care Debbie
Comment from mermaids
"Call to Say I Love You" is one of my favorite songs. I am enjoying your poems about artists. I learned much about Stevie Wonder from your words that I was unaware of. He has made his mark in musical and social justice history. Excellent poetic form and use of words that holds the reader's interest.

An excellent poem about Stevie Wonder, Debbie. I think he is definitely one of those artists whose music will live on long after we're all gone. A really entertaining piece, I enjoyed reading it.

Comment from GoWiSt
A blind visionary--very good paradoxical oxymoron. But so true about this great artist. I've noticed you've been paying literary tributes to great African-American artists. Very noble of you. Yes, indeed, Stevie Wonder is a great one, as imagine all he had to overcome to get where he is. Well crafted poem.

Thank you so much for your kind review! His talent was truly amazing and he never seemed to feel deficient in any way but, instead, empowered by his music and his mission. Take care Debbie
Comment from Brenda Strauser
I enjoyed reading your poem. I've always liked Stevie Wonder and am amazed at him. He can play the piano and he is blind. He is an inspiration. I like the way you give information about him at the bottom. I also the video choice.

Hi Debbie, our poem pays a beautiful homage to Stevie Wonder's remarkable legacy, acknowledging not just his musical feats but also his lasting impact on the music world. The way you've crafted the structure, rhythm, and language resonates perfectly with the essence of perseverance, optimism, and love that define Wonder's artistry. Your skilful integration of song titles seamlessly into the tribute is truly commendable. It's always a delight to review your work. -Terry

You have done it again. Your "hits" keeping coming, showcasing your incredible talent for telling the story of so many varied artists in poetry form. This is exceptional.
