This poem, Magical Moonbeams, presented with three ABCB-rhymed quatrains, brings the reader into the ethereal dream of interacting with those mythical figures who make meaning of distant planes.

Love this one, its rhyme is fluid, and full of fabulous descriptions. I also thought the title which sparkled with alliteration, Magical Moonbeams, was a brilliant touch that automatically brought me into read the poem. So well done, and I wish you the best of luck in the contest. :)) Sandra xx

I love the title of your poem. Alliteration has always been my weakness.
I wanted to choose a favourite line, but it's really difficult.
Thanks so much for sharing.

That's very lovely! Filled with beautiful and sensory descriptions. I'm not great at metre - but I like what you've done here with Amphibrach metre! I wish you every success in the contest with this one.

Lovely picture. This is beautifully worded. The alliteration, "magical moonbeams" and "silvered and shimmering." Lovely imagery with "dawn's sunny bright face" and "Moonbeam's embrace." Great work, too, with the rhyme and flow. Best wishes for your success in the contest. judi

A really good job with your chosen meter. The poem flows very nicely, and the meter really fits the subject matter. You should do really well in the contest.

Haha, you are so charming, Rachelle. I loved the class and had so much fun playing with different meters... I absolutely hate anapaest meter which is an unstressed, unstressed, stressed pattern i.e. comprehend, unabridged, contradict. Keeping that pattern through the entire verse is hard. Thank you for a lovely and gracious review!! Hugs.

Beautifully penned and illustrated poem in one of my favorite subjects: the moonlight. Aw, yours is perfect in meter and rhyme, and has an allure of fantasy.
Sending you my best today as always and best wishes for the upcoming contest.
