This is a very well written poem you have penned. I like that style you used. I have tried it a few times but not too many. Very good imagery and good wording. Teri

Comment from Joy Graham
I love the shape you created in your double tetractys poem :) Your message is witty too. I like that you combined two poetry forms so smoothly and enjoyably. You make it look easy, but I bet it's not.
One thing, "imaginative" has five syllables im-ag-in-a-tive. Shouldn't this be a four syllable line?
Best wishes in the contest. I think this is imaginative and well done!

Hi Joy!
Thanks for all the great comments. You are correct about the imaginative line being four syllables. Merriam-Webster breaks it down like this:
imaginative
adjective | imag·i·na·tive |
Thank you so much for taking the time to read and review my poem. :)

Comment from Pantygynt
Normally I am not a fan of these abbreviated forms because they are often done with thought only for the syllable count. This however is a bit different you have ted yourself into two forms at one and the same time, the alphabetic and the tetractys. That must have made it more challenging. You have risen well to the occasion.

Thanks, Pantygynt! I just thought I'd have some fun playing around with the forms, a bit. I was thinking about the ABC and it suddenly hit that it was a tetractys waiting to be born. :)
Have a wonderful day!

Comment from Sambangi
Hi Kim,
Enjoyable, no revision needed. Enjoyable because you have combined two different forms of poetry double tetractys and double ABC in one poem. I guess people can rarely do this. This is a difficult skill that is what touched me. And this poem is about writing a poem.
Wish you all the best
