This nonet is timely for the holiday season and would have made a good entry for the current contest. I enjoyed your description and use of alliteration. Thanks for adding the photo as well--I'm sure your husband is pleased with the result. Hugs- Joan

    This was a fun project and thanks for your positive comments. My husband is very pleased. He is into electronics, so I amazed he was interested in this mermaid. Elaine

Wonderful. I can see that a nonet is a challenge. Twice I had to recount! What a charming and whimsical mind you have. Thanks for sharing.

This was really different and a great nonet, to boot. Nice imagery, that is unique, with the pumpkin and the mermaid. Loved those first four lines. Holly

Oceania is a very sweet imaginative poem. Mermaids....hmmmm...I guess it is a topic close to your heart as your pen name also reflects that. Lovely descriptive verse.

A lovely poem with a simple topic that you have crafted very well so that we get fine imagery and a lot of daftness, all bound up within a few short lines. Well done, and thanks. Cleo Belle

I like how you wrote this short poem. I think having someone watch over is important. I like mermaids and for you to use it as a protector for the fisherman was a great choice.

A delightful and difficult assignment. But you got the job done. Although it takes lot of imagination to dream up something as unlikely as a Sea Pumpkin.

Half-mermaid, half pumpkin--how could one go wrong. This was a good nonet, being enjoyable to the reader while adhering to the rules of the form. I liked the picture you painted of the different things the mermaid sees while in the water.

Superb.
