This is excellent! I have a little image in my mind of this conversation happening on a dining table with a cup of tea and a pad with crayons nearby. It's excellently written, great imagery and really meaningful! I hope you win the contest!

Hi friend, and if only my 12 yr. old pre-teen granddaughter could be as innocent as yours. She's in a hospital in a deep depression, and maybe bipolar. I only wish that my girl could ask those questions of what poetry means. I love your answers and how she accepts them, and you explained to her just enough. I wish you the best of luck in this contest. . .Sharon

Oh Sharon, so sorry for your pre-teen granddaughter health's condition. You know, I know what you mean. PM to you.

Pre-teen, eh--they grow up too soon! I relished your dialog and wonderful equating of poetry to flying. Your picture choice reinforces the description and title well. Best wishes in the contest- Joan

You certainly did capture her sense of wonder--it is a delight to view the world through a child's innocent eyes! Thanks for sharing- Joan

Comment from RGstar
A beautifully bright write. Full of imagery and description.
A great image and layout, with clear dialogue to complete the romance of the piece. It can be quite difficult to explain to a child the dimensions of poetry and personal feel as it is never ending...you did a great job here. Best wishes,
RG

Thank you Roy for liking my poem and the dialogue. It was a pleasure to receive this inspiration. (She loves to draw)!
Comment from Willowsong
An adorable and awe inspiring portrayal of what poetry means to you. I quite enjoyed how you used the amazement of your granddaughter's realization to express how poetry affects you. It was a simple, yet eye-opening emotion that came through emphatically.

Hello, my dear amada,
This was absolutely delightful! You made the little girl come alive before my eyes and the personification with the rainbows and crayons is just spectacular.
In case you haven't guessed yet ... I loved the poem!
Best wishes for the contest.
Have a lovely week!
