Another fine acrostic you have there! I can't help wondering though, how it might look if you changed the second line so it reflected more the statement in the first - possibly: Yet NO speed limits are there for me ... Might that better complete the thought/condition you laid out in the first line, and make it more of a declarative statement? Just a thought that occurred in my first reading.

HELLO ART ASYLUM: Truer words are never spoken. You never did turn from grace here.
You glided through your unexpected flight with courage and ease. You have expressed witty self control here. I like it. Do it again, Art ASYLUM. Encore. Encore. Cordially: rhonnie69.

Your art background is getting reflected in the poetry and the pic in the background.Creativity is very well captured with the light and the halo around.

Opening lines are good.

This is a terrific contest entry. I envy people with imagination, I'm afraid that I don't have one. Your words paint a magical picture in the mind and the image you included is perfect. Thanks for sharing, good luck in the contest.

I do see in you the esprit you possess. Within this acrostic poem and otherwise. I love the line above and the title, "Join Me!". And that is what I did by reading your wonderfully delicious work or art. The artwork is amazing and shows off your spirit of plenty. I love the 'high' you're on as you expound your feelings of boosting creativity in this well written piece. I love your rhymed phrases, such as "phosphorescent sea" and "earth's grand prix". Your last line is provocative in that it can be taken in many different ways. It could be taken as 'religious' or as a spiritual state of being, or any number of ways one can imagine. The use of the term, "turn from grace" is an unusual way of describing your outcome. But, I like it none the less. Thank you for the definitions in your Author's notes. They helped to bring your wonderful message home.
Take care, Jesse

    I feel that every one should fly around with me in their respective imaginations... What a fun flight of fancy that would be... Interesting you should notice the last line it was meant to be ambiguous... Well really never did I turn from grace. Thanks kiddo... a pleasure to read your analysis of it. yours, diana

    Ambiguous is a good way to describe your last line. I love your unique view of life. "a fun flight of fancy" is a great way to live and write. I'm glad you liked my analysis of your poem.
    Take care, Jesse

Hi Artalysum,

A heavenly poem. The description about dreaming times we would visit heaven and the pleasure of it. Very positive cadence and content in the poem. And your grace awarded to you. The graphic used is vivid.

Peace be with you,
Urial

Hello Artasylum. The acrostic Poem, My imagination is a very good entry into the contest. I like the poem very much, I did not see any errors, wasn't expecting any cause you write very well. It carries the mind into all manner of magical imagery and you have created here a virtual mental picture show. Thanks for sharing.
