Yes, I think both! I admired your use of alliteration and the "bleed" hyperbole to intensify the feelings. The "pen/well" imagery is quite evocative, and the artwork is striking. Well done! -Joan

I think both as well, you certainly have created art with words and you have certainly talked to me with your poem. I sense a certain sensual feel to the Free verse. I'm glad you did not use punctuation as it frees the reader up. Don and Vicki

Inspire me is just what you did with this gorgeous poem. My new poem "Creative Whispers" was inspired by the elegant words of your poem. I can't express myself nearly as well as you, but I am thankful for the lovely inspiration. YOU have such depth in the words you write.

Love Every Verse in this poem My Friend!

I can connect with this. A poem should be more than just words and images. It should prick the skin and dip into a reader's heart. If the poet feels it, the reader should too.

Offhand I'd say that you are already drawn girl. This is a wonderful write. Love the phrase "Prick the skin of my soul".

Hey this is very cool! The presentation is beautiful and I like the way you've laid out the words and phrases of your poem. May I suggest, replacing the word 'drench/drenched' with something else as it is almost conspicuous in its repetition in such a short piece. (although it is a fabulous word!). Also second last line, I would add 'me' after beseech.

Hm, the Great Poet (is he/she related to the Great Pumpkin?!), or your Muse - I say your Muse is teasing you into writing more.

Dear Jewel, This has such lovely images flowing through this piece popping up in my mind. A soft and yet seductive piece - I've missed your writing and enjoyed this one. A lovely expressive work, well penned.
Thanks for sharing it.

If you are dipping and drawing, that sounds like masterful artistic calling to me, although these words you paint are masterful as well. Beautiful, Jewell
