Rachelle: perfect and beautiful equals: perfectly beautiful! Definitely a contest winner. "Bonfires in my veins" was my favorite part. I would have never thought of that. Original and wonderful. livelylinda

Well, I have to be honest here, Livelylinda - I didn't think of it, either. A reviewer I respect tremendously advised me that my original word here -fire- was not two syllables, which mean that my syllable count was deficient. That's when she suggested 'bonfire' and it made the poem come alive. So three cheers for FanStory reviewers are that level of generous. That's why I love this site so much.
Thank you for YOUR lovely review, as well. I appreciated hearing from you. xo.
Comment from estory
I really like the fire image, the sense of the words burning in our veins as we read them, inspiring and energizing us. There is also an element of pain, and that's interesting too. The sense that words can bring pleasure or pain, depending on how we look at them. estory

Comment from Oatmeal
RACHELLE ALLEN,
Short and sweet ...just like I like them! The meter count is correct.
The theme was well thought out. The descriptive words are well chosen.
I saw no SPAG and no typos. Everything looked in place.
I look forward to seeing you again.
Love you,
Oatmeal

Comment from godlucifer
a vein of fire is a vein of forgotten words. the forgotten word is the burning desire in the power of the written word. your poem was well thought of and well written. thanks for the read. "your so vein" means mood or humor.

Comment from LisaMay
I loved the hot stuff imagery in your 5-7-5, portraying the transference of heat and lust energy. But i didn't like the red type on black background... it made my eyes fizz.

But they're the colors of smoke and fire! It was short; your eyes weren't fizzing for very long.

True enough, but now I've gone cross-eyed (as you will see in my story to be released in April. Watch for "Chewing With My Mouth Open").

I'm anticipating it with bad breath...oops, bated breath.

You'll appreciate my dental hygiene then, too.

That goes without saying...as in, literally...
