This is an exceptionally well written and impeccably well rhymed quatrain poem, Lyndas.
It's quite easy to see why you pulled off the win in this contest.
Congratulations and keep up the fantastic work!

Wow! Mr. Kuch I am so honored with this review. The stars are blinding! As I hold you in high regard, your comments are humbling and most encouraging. A couple of weeks ago I came across "Imagine That". I was literally hypnotized by the art and music. I go back frequently to center myself. This is powerful to me. This morning I reread your poem. I think we had the same thoughts in mind at the same time as we wrote. Both entries are dated April 19-20. I am a night creature so maybe we collided somewhere, up there, in the dark, eh? I thank you sir for all of this. Very much. Lynda

The praise is well deserved as far as I'm concerned, Lynda.
You are more than welcome.

A perfect contest entry! An absolutely beautiful presentation from artwork, background black, to font style and color.
Perfect rhyme scheme of ABXB.
The words seems to describe an appreciation for both the reader and the writer. I love this :)

Wow. How perfectly structured is this? From the graceful flowing beauty of the words to the incredible artwork you have added, what a fine work of art. I would find this piece to be very hard to top in the booth. I've no doubt it'll do great. Thank you for this. I thoroughly enjoyed your contribution and wish you the very best in the voting. I see winner written all over it. Have a wonderful Easter.

Nice one! From one poet to another, you have successfully penned the process: keeping an open mind to be receptive to all thoughts, then the awareness and skill necessary to translate those thoughts to share with others. This looks good enough to win to me, but I haven't seen the other entries yet.

Thank you, Lisa! I really like when a reviewer relays back to me what I was thinking while writing. These comments are great and I so appreciate them. There is magic in a poet's mind and I tried to capture that. Thanks again!

I have just read Silver Words by Maria Jose Garcia about that very thing. Worth a read.
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written four-line quatrain about the poets that always seem to be busy writing and drain their minds of all the thoughts they have and entice the readers with pieces of themselves.
