Twilight Comes
Twilight a most peaceful time.6 total reviews
Comment from Liz O'Neill
You have used several literary techniques. Your use of alliteration becomes onomatopoetic. The s's effect the quietude of the night, of the wind of the moment. It ends with personification. This will draw the reader in.

Thank you much for your read and encouraging comments.
Comment from Karen Estep
I really enjoyed this piece as it flowed quite well, and the graphic certainly fit with what you wrote. Personally, I think it would have flowed better if at least two of the lines in each stanza rhymed. It was a little choppy. That being said, you have a wonderful way of telling a story. Keep up the good work!

Overall I find no fault with the poem but it fell a little flat for me. I think the simple images that the poem evokes are done so often that the poem isn't pulling me in or pushing emotions.

Urgent Warning! At the moment this will be disqualified from the contest because a minute poem has to be three stanzas long. Each stanza has twenty syllable and the syllables equate with seconds. 3x20=60 the number of seconds in a minute. Hence the name Minute Poem. This minute is only forty seconds long!

Please check: Directions say:
Minute Poem
For this contest, you are required to write a poem that has 8 syllables in the first line, then 4 syllables in the next three lines. This is one stanza. For this, you are also required to have two stanzas. In total, you should have 20 syllables in each stanza and 40 syllables in the poem.

Directions are incorrect. A Minute poem has three stanzas as I stated. I suggest you contact the sponsor for the contest and point this out.
