The author's words are sweet, beautiful and creative. I pondered on
the feelings I experienced when my grandchildren were born. Congratulations! The poem flows and connects well. The artwork is breath taking and compliments these words.

Double Congratulations dear! For the Beautiful kyrielle and for becoming a grandparent. I think the stork flying to bring a baby is simply adorable. She is such a cute lil one too. Lovely indeed!

I am sure the new young parents will love your poem.
Isn't it always the greatest if close relatives not just
give money (understand me right, money is, of course,
always appreciated) but something which is especially
for them and the baby.
Thank you for your Kyrielle and also best wishes to little
Maddison Grace from Switzerland.

A fine sentimental poem and the only suggestion here is to bring the repeated line into correct metre: "A cute little bundle encased", perhaps "A little bundle here encased". love Dolly x

    Hii Dolly Thanks for your review and suggestion I swapped the little and cute around as I wanted to use the word cute (I did struggle with this meter for this line when I wrote it so I hope the change is a little better probably not but it will stay now
    Cheers

Congratulations to your son and his wife - and to you for writing this poem to celebrate the arrival of Maddison Grace. What a joy and blessing to you all. I hope the stork also left an instruction book! Well done.

A beautiful baby the stork has delivered to you. You have good
rhyming in this poem telling the story of stork's delivery. My
favorite lines are I saw a stork fly overhead. He landed on a feather
bed. Sounds like a perfect place to land. Congratulations.

You've written a kirielle sonnet, the kirielle is the same as the sonnet, with a couple of lines tacked, repeating from the first verse. My first child when born, was a filip to my doubts of loving children, I was smitten straight away. A beautifully written and rhymed, in aabb, a great language and them, plus last repeating line, well done, good luck, blessings Roy

Nice poem that pays tribute to a newborn (who is featured in the adorable photo displayed). This sounds very much like a nursery rhyme. It would be the cutest poem to include in a children's book, complete with illustrations. Great job and good luck on the contest!

You did a great job with your sweet kyrielle, Mystery Author. I enjoyed reading it and thinking about the beautiful little baby girl--what a sweet name they gave her, too. You handled the style of kyrielle well. The repeated line works perfectly. Best wishes.
Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan
