Not one but two great poems. I still can not believe her demise. She was full of the spirit and executed for it. So now she is St. Joan of Arc.

I happened upon the artwork and knew I had to write something for it. Thank you for a great review, William.

An excellent response to the contest challenge. Both poems convey Joan of Arc's mission and innocence, and demise. Both poems are very well written. Best wishes in the contest. Thank you for the demonstration. janbar

Comment from psalmist
Excellent job with both styles. Excellent syllable count on the nonet with a great mini-bio of Joan of Arc. Your acrostic was superb and a good job with mono-rhymes. Good luck to you.

The artwork inspired both of the poems. Thank you for an excellent review, Angel. :)
Comment from dragonpoet
Both forms are well done. I like that you rhymed the acrostic with all the same end rhymes. Most people don't rhyme acrostics. The story of Joan of Arc is well told in both short poems.
Keep writing and good luck

Comment from gsuarez
I think you met the challenge of the contest with " flying colors ". The message was clear in both the nonet and the acrostic pieces. I tend to favor acrostic but that's just me Nice Job.

Comment from manicblue
Very well written. You've remained true to continuing the topic in the second style...from her devotion in fighting for France to her demise.
The only thing I would do is to make the acrostic "flush left" so the words "Joan of Arc" would easily read down the left side -- this is the usual way I have seen acrostics done. Am just cmpelled mentioning this. :)
It's very well done and I wish you well in this contest! Take care.
