A very nice crown of sonnets you. I love the lines you joined them with and thought you did a real great job. This is not an easy write nor is it any the less daunting. My hat's off to you girl. Bravo!!!

Comment from Fleedleflump
You win huge points from me just for getting the word 'clandestine' in there, and making it work perfectly! This is a marvellous piece of work, Yelena, telling us both a story and speaking of temptation, escape, and belonging. Some amazing words used throughout, and your steady, committed rhythm is almost flawless. I say almost only because I had to re-read a couple of lines to get the flow right with them, but they weren't wrong, it's just my English pronunciations!
I loved it :-)

Thank you so much, Mike, for this exceptional review and the six stars. It is an honor indeed coming from a poet like you! I am deeply flattered, and thank you for "clandestine" (smile). This is an amazing adventure, this contest, and I am having lots of fun!
Love, hugs and blessings, Yelena
Comment from oozer
Very very good poetry. One wee suggestion I tentatively give: Would 'One breath of healing air and I revived' not be somewhat smoother line than what you have?

These 'crown of sonnets' are mega-long...
I liked this one. It's not my image of Vegas, but the author does a good job conveying emotions both before, during, and after Vegas

Thank you for your good review. The particular length is a requirement of this strict poetic form. Glad you enjoyed the contents.

WoW! I lived on the strip for six months. I feel Vegas :-) This is a wonderful poem. Your notes are very informative and I enjoyed the read. Great Job and well done.

Oh, you lived on the Strip? I love it, but living there would be too fast for me. I lived primarily in Summerlin the two years I've been there. Glad you enjoyed the piece. Love, Y.
Comment from Poetic, Just Is.
Wow Wow Wow.
This is amazing.
I'm totally and completely impressed... though not with Vegas! LOL
I did not like the noise, the lights, the brew ha ha that occurs in Vegas... It did not ignite me, rather, it depressed me, or rather I just wanted to be left alone. I guess.
it was too loud, too noisy, too fast for me. LOL
But your sonnets are beautifully executed, and masterfully planned and written.
I loved them... and found a love for YOUR Vegas.
Well done and good luck in the contest!

Comment from Ted T
Hi :)
I loved the picture and the warm background of your words.
Rarely do I review poetry because I believe a poem comes from the heart and sole of the writer, and should not be judged.
I've written many verses, but not with the skill of this piece. It tells a bittersweet tale and sends a universal message.
Excellent work.
