Hi - very well written Quasi-Triolet in abaaabab. Lovely the way you have described the reason why we all write on Fanstory. The purpose of it all is made evident in this work. Well done. Good luck in the contest. Warm regards Dorothy

This work has reached the exceptional level

I really liked this poem - it flowed well and the rhymes didn't seem forced. The last line (Your post is really all we need) is my favorite; it's inspirational and concise. The first couple lines were somewhat confusing and seem unclear, I felt like they didn't follow the theme of the poem until I reread it, but when I reflected on it more it made sense. It made me think, which is what poetry is supposed to do!

Interesting artwork and a well written Quasi-Triolet poem. We do re-create our inner thoughts, but we do need others to take the time to read them.

Yeah, I agree completely. You never know unless try, and you'll never begin until you start.
This was short, simply worded, but powerful and profound in its delivery and message.
Best of luck to you in the voting booth.

Very nicely written. Holds to the quasi-triolet form required. I am certain many writers on FanStory will relate to the message within, though I confess the image is very confusing. Good luck on the contest.

    Hi Thal1959. Thanks for your review for my quasi triolet. The image is of city lights taken from above them I assume from a planes window and when you fly over the city is reminds me of seeing stars so hence the sky turned upside down. I hope that helps it is a bit ' left field' LOL. Cheers Christine😃

A very well-written Quasi Triolet. We create with words for others to read and review. We sometimes make a small mistake, we did not realize ourselves at the time.

I might be wrong but I think line 3 has a typo
the're(they're) great
