The title and photograph establish the setting well and your sonnet provides transporting details. I enjoyed your rhymed couplets and rhythm that "decorate the morning skies". Happy upcoming weekend- Joan

You captured the silver screen and scenic scene of the shining sea well, Tom. The beauty of the sea and sun sure made your cup of coffee taste better. Well done.

Comment from Preston McWhorter
Hi, Treischel,
"Silver Scene is excellent sonnet but I cannot give it six stars as "traffic is a collective noun that requires a singular verb. Also the first 4 stanzas convey the "delight" but it is my under standing that concluding couplet of a sonnet should contradict or be a twist to the arguments developed in the body.
I have posted Part II of the Priestess of Anubis. Please review as I am still trying to perfect my blank verse and I value your opinion.

Comment from Shirley E Kennedy
It always amazes me the wide ranging subject choices used in sonnet poetry.
This choice is unexpected yet works so well.
Perfect attention to detail and adherence to rhyme and meter.
Great pic.

Comment from Green Lake Girl
Ah, yes. Superior, the coldest of the Great Lakes. I saw that you took this photo in March of 2012. What a different picture this would've been in March of 2014!
Very nicely done poem capturing the "diamonds" on the water. Do you live near Superior?

Beautiful descriptive lines place the
reader right there in the scene.
Strong rhyme and meter carry it
along to the final couplet.
Nicely done. Great picture.
