Your granddaughter is absolutely gorgeous!
excellent use of abab rhyme
good incorporation of the quatern's repeating/descending line
when the eye's shut tight - when the eye is shut tight doesn't make sense
lovely descriptive detail and your poem is just filled with love :-) Brooke

Your poem is a sweet as the sleeping child in the picture. They sure are angelic in sleep. Your form is wonderful with you words.

"The angelic face of a sleeping child." - A simply elevating experience to read this lovely poem. It is masterfully constructed and flawlessly expresses the feelings evoked when seeing a child at rest. Thank you so much for sharing this with me.

Hi, Treischel,
This is an excellent quatern. It has good flow and rhyme is effective. It has good figurative language and imagery, The refrain is effective.

Comment from ravenblack
So true! Both our kids had colic pretty bad, and the sight of their sleeping faces was beatific indeed! It meant that we would get a few hours sleep.

Thank you ravenblack, yes, they tend to be much more angelic when they are asleep.

This brings my thoughts back to when my kids were babies many moons ago. I now just have the memories and the pictures. A great poem that depicts the innocence and beauty of a baby and their angelic face. Well done.

Thank you rod. I find the very angelic when they are sleeping, not so much when they are awake.

Hello, well first of all beautiful child. Thanks for the great read and I feel the same way about my grandson, but sadly he is ten now, so I just have to look back at his pictures.
Regards, CC

Lovely and well taken photo of your grandchild. And then an excellent poem about her, describing her as an angel. I loved it.

That's quite a beautiful tribute to your granddaughter. She is a beautiful child. But there you go losing me in all that poetry stuff technical jargon ... suffice for this pea brain just to read the poetry.
