This is very smooth and the precautionary message is clear. You have done the quatrains beautifully and presented this poem in a very attractive manner. Great job!

Comment from Dr. Nad
I need to tell you how much I enjoyed your poem "A quill through Casanova's Heart". One of the things I would say about it is that it is very Romantic. From the beginning into the middle and on through the end. "Deceptive Lust" is a subject that is familiar to all of us and one we shouldn't ignore. We have all had a few times when we were tempted to stray off of the virtuous path, but God just placed a big warning in our lap. Today's warning came through "A quill through Casanova's Heart".
May God bless You. Have a Merry Christmas

What a wonderful and insightful review. I have found through writing these that I am a hopeless romantic. Ha! I didn't know that before to be honest. Thank you so much for this excellent review. Big smiles! Merry Christmas and blessings to you and your family as well, mikey

Comment from mfowler
This is a wonderfully penned poem with excellent lyrical qualities and versification. The writer sets his honest writing toil against the absurdities of Casanova's charm. he'll write his love in granite and the lady will give in to the cad who leaves her immediately after. Excellent rhyme and meter; a great story and inventive language use. Loved:
My quill I set to granite--words so grand!
I'll dazzle with my heartfelt, soul-scribed song.
He speaks, his words are sugar in the sand.
The dawn reveals your sin; he's done you wrong.... really nice alliterative image employed with sugar in the sand.

Thank you so much. I think I have this meter in my head now. This was actually fun to write. So glad you liked it. Very encouraging. mikey

You realise, Michael, that I know your work as sooon as I see the first line. Like the Scarlet Pimpernel (an English fop who disguised himself in ingenious way to rescue people from execution in the French Revolution), you pop up everywhere, but we who pop up everywhere too, get to know the styles of each. I bet you can spot adewpearl, Kiwisteve, Dean Kuch etc without needing to look at a name.
-
Yes, I do recognize others as you point out. I suppose I don't think of myself as having a style. :) I must since I've put plain black type on white with no picture and still been pegged. Ha! Mikey the English Fop, love it!!!
-
Can you spot me as I fop about?
-
Oh yes. But, you surprise too. I don't always know it is you. :)

You summed up the scoundrel very well. Love the first stanza that sets the tone nicely for the excellent poem.
Nicely penned with a great piece of artwork to depict the era. Good presentation.
Good luck in the contest.

I'm pleased you liked this one. I'm rather pleased with it! It took a lot of patience from a lot of people trying to teach me the meter!! Thank you so much. It's hanging in there. Some top entries. mikey

Oh my. "sugar in the sand". What a metaphor for his words.
I loved that. Good job. Ah he was such a devil, that Casanova fellow.
