I liked your garden of words that you planted on your page. I enjoyed reading your poem and learning a new word. It flowed well and good choices for rhyming.

Well, I for one, am proud of you for publishing your anthology, Craig. I know you take pride in all of your poems. I enjoyed reading this one, Craig. I like the presentation--the color scheme, the picture, the inspiration from WS, and rhe message contained. This poem reads smoothly with great rhymes. I like how you used the word of the day to tell this story. Good job and thanks for sharing. Jan

I love your word of the day idea. I rate poetry on four criteria. If it rhymes, if it makes sense, if it's spiritual, and it touched me emotionally. You hit three of the four criteria.

    Well, sadly, I'm not ever likely to meet all four of your criteria, if I understand your meaning of those words. Three out of four will have to do. Still, I'm very grateful that you read my poem, and were kind enough to review :) Cheers, Craig

I'm sure Shakespeare would be happy that you quoted him so no apologies are needed. A great way to describe the collection of our creative efforts as a beautiful, well-cared for garden.
