Thanks to my granddaughter, Kenzie for her Amazing Artwork46 total reviews

I guess this was for a blind contest? Love Kenzie's amazing artwork! What a great contrast of spirals and straight lines. I like your rhyming couplet that shows us that our bedtimes can bring up troubles from the past. Congratulations on your second place finish. (I just checked!)

Comment from Dawn Munro
Holy smokes! If I wasn't so dag-nabbit poor, I'd ask if she would like to illustrate my next book! Your grandaughter's art is outstanding! (So is your poem, but my last six won't do anything to promote it, so I will save it for the next piece I meet that is worthy, k? xxoo) :)

Lol, hope you know I wasn't begging for reviews. Haha! I just can tell you really liked her art. I can't use her work as often as I like, because her portfolio is that of a tattoo artist. But actually we just talked before her trip to Europe. if I ever figure out how to do the Amazon books, when she gets home she will be coming over to talk about illustrating my book. But I don't even know where to start, Do you start by editing them and putting them in a book here?
And I love your sweet comments. I will tell Kenzie about you. She loves hearing things like that. Thank you again my sweet friend.

-Effective imagery and rhyme.
-Good description of "bedtime's darkness" and the
reason for the fear in the second line.
-A good entry; good luck.

Comment from Spitfire
This well-constructed couplets make a point, debi. Consonance with the s sound in bedtime's darkness, past and sins. Alliteration also with the s sound. Good luck on your entry.

Oh Rebekka, I thank you so very much for your kind comments for my haunting past sins poem and for always being so thoughtful in your reviews.
Your kind words are always so appreciated. Then you made it complete with the generous gift of six stars. It's like the full meal deal in a review. It doesn't get any better than that. Thank you once again my dear friend.

My pleasure entirely dear debi <3
Comment from papa55mike
Memories do flood in at night when we still our hearts and the mind takes over. Abuses that I endured surface. What a wonderfully written poem. I wish I had a six for you.
Good luck in the contest!
Have a great day, and God bless.

Comment from Terry Broxson
You only get ten words, and I think you chose some good ones to make a thought-provoking poem. I do think you have some wisdom with the poem. Good luck in the contest. Well done. Terry.

Awe Thank you Terry. I appreciate your kind comments my dear friend!

Interesting, when I reviewed the poem, it was in a blind contest, I had no idea who wrote it! The contest says this entry is waiting to be entered.
-
The contest just got over.
I can surprise you after all!
Haha! I just added that the art was more of my granddaughter's amazing art.
-
I see you tied for second. I realize that is below your standards...LOL.
-
Haha! I am fine with that. But what I am not fine with is it looks like Jessica and I split the second place winnings and the third place got the whole amount. They could have at least split it three ways. Don't you think?

I have heard that complaint before.
Comment from patricia dillon
The "terrors of the night" are proverbial. It is easy to imagine all kinds of monsters lurking in the darkness, whether or not they arise from a uneasy conscience. Good luck in the contest.
