Hi Brigitte. Congratulations on winning the contest with this fine entry. Your father's painting is gorgeous. How wonderful that his work is exhibited. When I lived in New York, I visited the Metropolitan many times. Marilyn

Hi Bridget you don't look a day over 51 by the way and your father's picture is quite amazing also as your home your 575 with the she goes flying through the clouds that would be your theme and imagery ejective content of course is to win the contest and the object to that is to use your father's artwork it read well flowed well with no grammar issues the descriptive measures were perfect in in place thanks for just talked to Ricky 1024

This is a great 575 poem about autumn. I love the art that was done by your father. There is something very majestic about clouds and the geese flying in the clouds. Patricia

A very well-written 5-7-5 ode to Autumn. The puffy clouds remind of God's breath he blows down to earth in Autumn to remind us that winter will soon be here to complete the seasonal cycle.

The painting is wonderful and so is your ekphrastic poem using the breathtaking view of the gulls among the "mighty autumn day clouds." I also like the last line which hints at the coming winter.

WOW! What amazing photo. You just got a thumbs up that launched you upward by yourself, so hope you keep it. Looks like could be "the Breath of God," and that photo looks like someone or some being breathing. The clouds so puffy and white feels like wind is blowing right through them. Powerful metaphors. truly, liberty justice

The picture is beautiful and the poem is a nice change from the orange ones.
Well done and good luck to you with the competition.

Hello poet: Compare: GENESIS 2 : 7. And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.
I'm glad about that. Seems as though, you are too. The breath of our God is the reason for every season. Which makes your poem, right exact. This work is testimony for our God.
I just want to say that you and I are on the same page in the Holy Scriptures. For us, beloved,
it all started (life) with the breath of our God. Keep up your good work. We need it
Thank you: rhonnie69.
