A beautiful description of both the countryside there and of the burgeoning love experienced in that lovely place. I very much enjoyed the lyrical qualities, the imagery, and the measured pace and flow. Lovely poem.

Hi Jim, this wonderful love poem evokes long forgotten memories memories along the Serenade Mountains. The imagery is beautiful as the Sequoias stand guard protecting that special memory. Ulla:)))

This poem, Song of the Serenades, is a classic love poem that connects the beauty and memories of a natural environment, visited together, with the splendor of a solid, endearing relationship.

Thank you! I really appreciate and respect your poetic talent!
Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
Oh wow, Jim, this is so evocative, romantic and beautiful! Your fine free verse skipped and danced along embracing those awesome mountains and the love affair, so special and poignant in your heart. As nature blends inextricably with your emotions there is a poignant and nostalgic tone reflected in those echoing "eerie tones" of the Serenade Mountains. Why no contest for this beauty, Jim? A virtual six from me. Take care Debbie

I appreciate your very kind words. I originally was going to enter it in the Free Verse contest but misdirected it. So I entered another instead, granting me twice the experience.

HI Jim,
This is a poem full of nature metaphors and personification about what seems like memories of a first love. It is very romantic. I like the repetition and alliteration too. You chose a beautiful picture of the mountains.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Have great rest of the week.

Comment from Michele Harber
Your descriptions are lovely, and very visceral. I'm totally straight, yet you nearly had me drooling over those crimson lips.
The repetition of "the Serenade Mountains" to end each stanza is very powerful, as is each stanza giving its own version of the mountain's actual serenade. I love the way you touch on both the aural and the visual. Beautiful job!

There's more where they came from, but I didn't know if you could handle it all! Have a pleasant night. I'm going to try a little rest, and also try to see if I can do a post at midnight for as closing contest.

Bring those emojis on! (?I am woman, hear me roar.?)
Go get some rest, and I?ll look forward to whatever you post for the contest later.

Your words paint a most beautiful landscape, one that leads us into the landscape of feeling, longing, and wistful nostalgia. Expertly crafted and a pleasure to read.

Beautiful, as I read, I could feel peace and serenity. You spiked your poem up with a touch of romance. We should all experience a time in our lives to reflect upon when times are rough. Your poem rejuvenates the soul.
