Awesome guitarist, I see. His outfit could use a little improvement. LOL. I think everyone would love to have a song they wrote be heard. Superb rhyming. Would make good lyrics. Good luck with the contest. Les

    Les, thank you :-) When my daughter posted this on Facebook, the first thing I told her was he needed a decent pair of rocker pants. LOL :-) Brooke

Sawyer, the rock-star on his Guitar:) I had a quick look at the form(the wrapped refrain), don't think I've tried one of these, but you my friend smashed it out of the ball park. Very cool, very cool indeed, good luck!

You wrapped it up tight and left it singing. Looks as if Sawyer is getting ready for the big moment. Well done Brooke. Another goodie. Best to you in the contest.

Ah, look at the Cute Little One rocking out on his guitar :) This is very well written and having the Cute Little One as support, the others stand no chance. Good luck in the contest.

This poem type was a little tricky at first, but I caught the rhythm and was ok after a time. The poem was good, as if you have ever written one that was not good. I loved the picture of Sawyer playing a guitar, this really helped to sell the poem. As always this proved to be a welcome addition to your growing list of well written poems.

A new, (to me) form that looks to be a bit of a challenge with its changing line length. You do the switch well and have written another delightful poem/song for us to enjoy.

    Thank you so much, Rose, and you are spot on with that comment about the 12 syllable lines :-) Brooke

This one appears to be about Sawyer's obvious musical prodigious talent, but it really masks a love poem exhorting life improved, in the presence of 'you'. The musical metaphor is spread throughout the verses, building the sense of harmony and joy experienced in the other's company. Very enjoyable! Good luck in the contest.

This poem is beautiful. I'm sure we all can relate to it in some way or other... we all need others to listen and support us to be happy.

Hi Brooke,
The first lines of the poem are so compelling in their depth and scope. We sing our song of life, waiting for someone to understand our verse. When that person appears, life becomes complete. Suddenly, trials become easier with the help of a mate to stand beside. Wonderful thought and delivery...top notch! Best wishes, Bill
