Ciao Sugarray!
This poem is worth nothing less than a six star review
A well chosen artwork and a vivid and charming description of the surroundings sets the mood.
A skilful poet knows how to use, in the finest way, words .... which is what you achieved here in these two beautiful rhyming lines.
Her words resemble violins
that soothe your brow with calming strains,
providing rest to ease your pains.
You illustrate well the gifts of a skilful poet who knows how to soothe, enchant , beguile with his/her words.
This is such a lovely read to the ear Sugarray... you really bewitch the reader.

Beautifully written rhyming quatrain. Wonderfully expresses the workings and craft of a poet. The image you chose also pairs well with your writing and adds to its meaning and memorableness as it seeps into the quiet corners of the mind and rests.

I very much enjoyed your poem. The words flowed so peacefully just as
you say, "her words are chosen carefully, entrancing you so peacefully."
I feel that peace with your words. I also like the alliteration. You have
found a great picture for this poem. Congratulations.

Comment from Teri7
This is a very interesting and well written poem of rhyming quatrains about a sleepy poet. You used very good descriptive words and very beautiful imagery from the art work you chose. I wish I was lying in one of those right now in the cool breeze. I am sleepy too! love and blessings, teri

Comment from Therese Caron
I needed this poem tonight. It is gentle and soothing and reminds me why I love to read poetry, and to write it when I have time. Sometimes I lie in bed at night and write it in my head. That's actually my favorite way to write poetry. And in the morning I write it down and straighten out the meter and the rhyme and everything else. Maybe my brain is most relaxed at night. I love the line that says providing rest to ease your pains. Beautifully written, beautifully illustrated. A definite six!
