This is an excellent example of a lune poem, meeting the meter requirements. I love poems about the art of writing, and the phrases you chose are engaging.

    Thanx so much Susan -- always so good to hear from you, ma'am!! ;)
    Please forgive my 'running behind' ... as mid-terms close in, my tutoring schedule has ballooned and my 'free time' has all but vanished! Exams are next week so there is a light at the end of the tunnel - LOL! :) A very Merry Christmas to you from my little corner of the world!! ;) Yvette

HELLO Y.M.ROGER: I like your poem in that it is brief, clear, and to the point. With just nine words and three lines you express how you pass your poem from your imagery, through your pen, onto your paper, and then to your reader. Well done, my dear friend. Thank you for sharing. You are appreciated. God bless you, Y.M.ROGER. Cordially; rhonnie69.

Oh indeed dear Yvette,
Quite prophetic and visionary your poignant Lune Poetry
contest entry here. Rightly or wrongly writers and poets
often rely on or envision something akin to mystical
in their writings, and do end up in penned form, one
way or another. Were that not just a mysteriously
so, there would be lot less writers and writings to often
warrant those mystical visions.
I do hope your pen always stays fully inked to the fullest,
and your extraordinary visions keep you challenged and
energized and excited to keep sharing them. As you have
already!!! And love it you keep living up to those visions
and irresistable tenacities to keep expressing them dear!!!
Thanks for sharing, best of luck in contest!!!
Blessings, Ronni

I could visualize your "mystical visions" and hope your "poet pen" stays loaded with ink! Yes, that had to be you in the picture--best wishes in concluding the semester and in the Lune Contest- Joan

This is an excellent entry in this lune 5/3/5 poetry contest friend Yvette, you have posed a literary dilemma for me, I knew you were a clever writer, but I think you're right, sometimes (frequently) I wonder who just wrote my last post, sometimes I have to think...but my head hurts when I do. Good luck my friend, blessings, Roy

Ms. Roger's pen-umbral poetry shines most brilliantly against a dark background. Her pellucid plume serves as her link/conduit to a world of light and inspiration -- Plato's Ideal Realm of Archetypes, perhaps? -- that feeds her visionary verse. It is her word-wand. Kudos.
