Exceptional

Exquisite! This measures up by any guage or crierion I know.

Lines that sum up:

"My whisper is the violin caressing my soul.
...
...I surrender my soul for this is my moment
I;m alive, therefore I am."

Wow.

Thank you so much for this wonderful review. I am ever so humbled. I wrote this while listening to Andrea Bocelli "Melodrama". I am so inspired by his music.
Again, thanks very much. I am encouraged to write more and more because of mentors like you.

So many great lines in this poem. I especially like, "My whisper is a violin caressing one's soul." I am alive - therefore I am, fulling embracing all that that means.

This is well written and has good flow. It gives us a picture of nature and the reminds us that God is in everything around him. At the end it seems to say it is about the feelings of one close to death.

Hope it did well in the contest.

Keep writing.

This is beautiful. I love how the artwork just enhances the poem and makes it better. Even though it's free verse it definitely feels like it rhymes and flows throughout. You have a winner. Keep on writing.

My New Year's resolution was to become more spiritual. I need this for my soul because I feel myself becoming hard, intentionally shutting out too many emotions. Thank you for your inspirational poem. Today, I will surrender my soul a little more than usual. Maybe I will feel this warmth and beauty that you so eloquently portray. Thank you.
