Well, I have another six left so you're getting it. I love the rhythm, the repetition and the momentum I agree that the photo's the perfect complement to the poem. Gorgeous.

Comment from Carolyn 'Deaton' Stephens
I am not sure I have read a Quatem. If I have it was probably from you or Gungalo. At any rate, I enjoyed the poem immensely. The repeated first line throughout was very effective, and the 8 syllable lines kept the flow steady. Well done Brooke, :-) Carolyn

Comment from Dom G Robles
Pretty and well rhymed. A very strong image. However, the picture should, (I think), have a steady Oak that the wind never shook--a steady OAK that stood on its ground, to me, that could and would be more appropriate or meaningful. I say this because in your last paragraph, you mentioned of STRONG OAK that stayed steady, strong and still, but instead I saw the picture of tall lean stalks of plants flapping by the wind...This is but my view no meant to offend.

Dom, thank you so much, my generous friend - of course I'm not offended by your picture suggestion even though I think mine is more appropriate to the breeze theme. :-) Brooke

Oh, alright. It's really something from the eyes of the beholder.

I've come again to be amazed at Brooke's creative profligacy. Seriously, your poems seem to come with such incredible ease. You are such a joy to read.
Not all's a war to lose or win.
A breeze swept through and brushed my skin.

Gosh, what a perfectly composed poem, Brooke. Your rhymes, enjambment, repetition, and alliteration all make this poem a delight to read and envision. I especially like the power and emotion in the last verse.
Smiles,
