"Wise Bards", is short, succinct and very much to the point. Woven through each line of this talented poet's work are woven the golden threads of truth. To me, this is a six, but unfortunately I'm not given enough of them. I look forward to seeing your next post.

Again, very well written and as far as I could tell the count was right on. It seems that your work has dominated the front page of Fanstory. you seem to be a poetic machine. I look forward to reading more of your inspiring work.

My first read and I was trying to count syllables. All good on the word count. A unique and creative free style verse. No edits or adjustments necessary.

Great form. Love the homage to Shakespeare. The graphic and quote work very nicely as compliment to this piece.
Well executed. I'm certain your readers will appreciate this offering.

I enjoyed this word restricted contest entry. I now know a bard who eloquently spelled/carved out his wisdom in a few words. (-:

The illustration's saying is excellent too.

Good luck in your writing prompt entry.

Very interesting and challenging. While it has gotten me thinking about the relationship between wisdom and poetry, I am not sure that I have a grasp of the topic. Thanks for the challenge.

I am not a great poet, but I am glad the illustration you selected indicates I might have a special wisdom of humanity! I admired your reflections and your punctuation-free, twenty-six word poem. Cheers and best wishes in the contest- Joan

This is a tightly packed gem with much wisdom inside. I love your use of bards and how you connect our current world to that of the medieval scribes. Such brevity yet such depth.

Thank you for the word 'poetised' It is a new one to me. You are fortunate to be among those who love language and explore its use. I'm sure you could 'stump trump' with this one!
