a summer teen romance, I see. That is a great age when the tomboy all of a sudden becomes romantic with that first kiss - and by moonlight during summer vacation, no less - I love the use of morphs as a verb here. Good luck in the contest - this is a creative entry :-) Brooke

    Brooke Yes, it is a moment that will remain very special in my heart forever. We still speak one every so often through the years. I was an awkward tomboy able to beat any boy in the neighborhood at baseball or football. One special moment changed my vision completely. Thanks for the review. Carol

Moonlight kiss, tomboy morphs, love blossoms

hi carol, you got a story here, but when you were a child? lol. but those are the sweet things about childhood. i thought the classification should be non-fiction. checked the rules and it says must be a true story. add a period after 'blossoms'. good luck!

    I never thought to change that...sorry! It is most definitely a true story, though long ago. A moment in time when a simple kiss changed me from awkward teenager to demure young lady. Thanks for the review. Carol

Carol, love this delightful piece of whimsy! The two words which make this poem stand out are "tomboy morphs". Fabulous!

    John I was an awkward tomboy, beating the boys at football and baseball. Suddenly, I didn't want to beat them at their game. Thanks for the awesome review. Carol

Dear Begin,

I absolutely loved this! Not only did you say so much with such few words, you managed to tell my story. I was once a hardcore tomboy, transformed by love. I liked the way you changed colors in the text...it gave it more "punch". I loved the word "morphed". It really made the poem magical. I am quickly becoming a fan of yours!

This is a very good effort for the
contest with an excellent picture
to support it. However, the text
appears to be out of line. Did you
use the advance editor?

    Phil I'm not sure what you mean...I'm not real good on this editor thing...tell me what you think I should be doing, please. Carol

Carol...And so it goes. A master crafts woman plies her talent on the subject of love. But in six words? Yeah and Verily. You are an amazing woman. So talented, expressive, full of joy, wisdom, and understanding. The depth of emotion and meaning within these six words is genius. When one has the creative spirit flowing through your body, your soul...beauty, passion and art are the result. Nicely done. Michael.
