This flows like free verse (from me a compliment). To write such a gorgeous poem within a disciplined form is amazing. This is definitely a 6. "Creation sings the melody" is something that I wish I had written. I hear creation's symphony all around me where I live.

As per your usual. Need I say more. Yes. Beautiful and flowing. Each stanza flows to the next like steel to a magnet. How's that for a metaphor. lol. Great entry for the contest.

I found several parts of this interesting. You mention songs of birds and beaches, ever see a grown me trying to convience the sand pipers that he is one of them. That jem took two hours. In that case, it was a song of movement.

With nature photography, I have found myself in many dischordant climes, yet it matches your image of a ballet. I also know the percusive nature of waves, but what I enjoy is the retreat of them which is a symphony of cymbals. This poem reminds me of why I want to enter into auditory synthises that I may more accurately represnt sounds that would add to recorded poetry.

I enjoyed this very well thought out and written poem, with all of its dynamics. I find the form especially suitable for the poem.

Nature and creation is behind everything, within our daily lives. I really love the writer's words written here about "Creation Sings." Within our daily lives we are creative when we speak, write, or sing and living our lives to the fullest.
Life is creative and God is creating all the time here on earth also out their among the stars and planets.

I love the art work and the authors words very much here.

Honeytree.

You picked four wonderful examples of life's reasons to listen and sing, Brooke. I especially liked the final stanza. Best of luck to you!

As usual this is an awesome work. The first 3 quatrains contained a hint of an ending. The last quatrain did not for me evoke any finality. I am wondering if this was intentional. Creation sings the melody is a great line. You never disappoint- thank you for this poem.

I think the middle ages is something I experience long ago. I never did the kyrielle though...who makes up this stuff.....reminds me of the Dewey Decimal Systm for Poetry.

Whoever made up the kyrielle is so long dead and buried, my friend, that he makes you like a newborn babe!!! LOL Thanks for your most smile-inducing review :-) Brooke

Very interesting--again, I have been introduced to a new form of poetry through you. The concept is really wonderful--I hear the wind whistling and the waves pounding. Great job.

You really do "lift your voice in harmony" with all artists. It's a beautiful Kyrielle. You can change the art you know. I asked Tom. Lovely, graceful poem though as the art is lovely and graceful. "Creation sings the melody" is so charming and perfect. I just love it. I'll wish you luck in the contest even though you don't need it.
