Comment from Linda Engel
This is a terrific ABC poem. One with meaningful insight . Shadows dance their way to the surface, and not wanting or willing to confront them we push them back... for awhile. Well written and well thought out.

I enjoyed reading your contest entry, Melissa. Good job with the prompt. Your choice of letters many people avoid. But, your words make perfect sense and flow nicely. The picture is super and a great choice, too. You give readers much to think about with your well-chosen words. Thanks for sharing and best wishes. Jn

Thank you very much,.... you mentioned the sequence of these letters.... I was trying my hardest to work with A-E... and one flub after another.... I gave up and was going to shelve the whole project, but R-V came out as smoothly as silk... go figure?? Thanks a bunch, Jan, for the great comments.

Oh how many of us know this dance with truths we'd rather not face head on! You've captured it well in just a few lines. Impressive! Six star material.

This is a well thought out poem which resonates on two levels. The beautiful scene and those things which we try to hide without thinking about, but pop up anyway. Nicely expressed. Last line is a gem. Marilyn

This is really awesome, Melissa :) I had to read it over a few times to get the full flavor of your message. Once I got it, it resonates and I love it. This is a fantastic contest entry. You should be victorious in my humble opinion. When I grow up I want to write poetry as well as you.

Hi Melissa, this is very good - well worded with a very beautiful choice of picture. The whole layout is very well displayed. 'Victorious again.... for the moment' - I like the momentary pause. Good luck in the contest. Warm regards Dorothy xx

A very well-written ABC poem great format and presentation. The shadows dance everyewhere and we often are just too late to see them before the light takes it away.

Gorgeous artwork...perfect for your verse. I have a shelf in my mind filled with boxes, filled with things I do not want to contemplate. Maybe one day I will bring them to your rocks and dump them overboard! Fine write once again.
