What a beautiful poem, a joy to read, I am afraid I do not
understand the different forms of poetry but, most important,
I know what I like and enjoy to the full.
Thank you for sharing.

I really enjoyed reading "Our Dream Come True". An excellent ocotogram with great rhyme, meter and I loved the repeating line. Great alliteration with wings of wind our wish, cosy cottage, and surrounds and swirls. Very nicely done and good luck in the contest.
Blessings
Janet

You have a nice bouncy beat that goes with this tale of happiness. Very appropriate in cadence and in rhyme to verify your message and the reality of the theme.

I really liked this wish-borne home. So many of us dream about one for our very own. Yours sounds absolutely perfect. Great flow and cadence in this well-written Octogram. Rose.

This piece meets the criteria of the Octogram poem. The syllable count is right as the message is clear. The rhyme scheme is effective as the rhyming is good. This piece flows well as my attention is captured from the beginning and held to the end. Nice job

    Thanks, garth - not my usual style but I tried (unsuccessfully it turns out) to get into the voters' heads.
