I enjoyed your poem's theme of how a poet's pen can keep "Bright recollections of childhood's rainbow" alive, even though memories fade and life slows down and loses its colour.
Your range of poetic topics is beautifully expressed:
"From pure fantasy to whispered voodoo
Through fields of stars or yon meadow...".

Very nice picture to compliment your well written rondeau poem. The repeating line worked very well. The rhyme scheme was good.

Well done.
Blessings

Childhood is a wonderful time to dream and you envision the world with new eyes that have only begun to see the beauty that lies around them. That is what I take away from this wonderful piece.

You've written an excellent Rondel for the contest
with very good rhymes to the form.
The two repeat lines work well in all locations
and the theme is uplifting.
Nicely done with very good art work to match.
Good luck in the contest.
Robert

Very nicely penned poem. My favorite lines: Dreams of today will find breath tomorrow.While drowning in sweet mem'ries' hue. That is so profoundly stated about our hopes. Keep writing.

Such a lovely rondel poem which brings to life the nostalgia of "childhood's rainbow." And these dreams still return through the poet's pen. Especially loved the second stanza. Best wishes in the contest!

A very fine example of a Rondel, a French form I tried myself once or twice. I find it very melodical. Your keep the rules to a "t", great descriptive imagery, impressive artistic presentation and photo.

I wish you a lot of luck in the contest with this strong entry.
