Delicious imagery! What a beautiful presentation too. Tasteful and artistic. Outstanding phonetics in this polished 5-7-5. Extraordinary word economy too. I applaud all the S and soft C resonances and the subtle counterpoint of hard C and T. Loved reading this aloud. The consonance and alliteration of P is superb as well.

A six if I had one.

Great choice of background. And what an excellent image of a night with heavenly light. We always anticipate summer nights out camping when we will be able to fully appreciate the majesty of the heavens.

You have written two lines to set the scene and then two words to make it an outstanding poem. Carefully chosen words, alliteration, picture and colour scheme all make this a winner. Best wishes, Peter

Very nice - love the picture you chose to accompany your poem.
I thought the first and second lines complemented each other but wonder if jewelled and opulence are too similar. Nature's opulence or God's opulence (as you are using the word heavens). Just a thought - take no notice as it is a lovely poem.

This work has reached the exceptional level

"stars piece the heavens", is short, succinct and very much to the point. Each word of this talented poet's work is woven with the golden threads of truth. To me, this is a six. I look forward to seeing your next post.

The words go perfectly with the picture, Janet. Great match-up!
The "Recognized" and "All Time Best" Awards are well deserved.
Good luck in the contest.

Hi JMF, You must be in a really beautiful area that is away from a large town or city. My parents have a summer place in such an area, it's a place where you can see it all when the stars come out... so pretty.

I enjoyed reading your short nature poem (5-7-5). It is well-written and well received. I love the stars and the heavens. Your artwork is beautiful and your message spiritual and powerful. Good use of alliteration of m letters and sounds. Best wishes!
