This poem/acrostic does what all good poetry should do and that is fully engage the readers imagination. This brought out fantastical and vivid images fore.

Wow, Lea, that's a truly explosive mutation! Love "the deviant soup" and the unstoppable force of this new creation as it terrorises nature, bursting forth in its new hybrid identity of man and tree - the Manitree. Well done on the acrostic element too. My only suggestion for the last line which doesn't really make sense is: Never doubt this transition of race, the birth of Manitree! Good luck, Lea! Warm wishes, Debbie

    Debbie, I took your suggestion to heart, and I used a variation of the line you gave me, which tends to make things a little bit smoother, so great suggestion on your part. Thank you! So i'm glad that you like this.This is a little bit of a leap, but hey, it's turning out to be fun. Again, I thank you for your wisdom for your time and your great reading.May the force be with you!

I do not believe I have ever seen a poem whose illustrations so perfectly match the words to a tee. Your words create a mental picture clearly articulated and then to see an illustration that makes perfect representation of what is written is in my mind, perfection. Bravo.

    I meant every word I wrote. I am truly amazed at your skill. I guess by now, I should never underestimate the skill of any and all of FanStory's writers.

If evolution is to be believed, eventually we may have Manitrees. I love trees and plants and treat them with respect. Your poem makes me think I like that and it is well written in the Acrostic style.

Another poem about the Manitree, Lea.
This one an acrostic on mutation. It's a great piece of work.
Are we going to have a full series on this interesting creature?

I enjoyed your inventive post about man and tree becoming one here, a very unusual word you have created here Lea.

(Undulating remains of life ooze a pestilent defense)

Suggestion here;
(Undulating remains of life's oozing pestilent defence)

    Hi Dolly, thank you. I took your advice and went ahead and made that change. Thank you for that! Thank you for a great review, too. This palm goes with the first one called The Meld where the Manitree began. As always, I thank you for your kind review and the great suggestion and the awesome rating too.Hope you have an amazing night!

This one has fever and passion and certainly moves along like the best melodrama. It almost echoes Bradbury in a way, Nice Stretch of the imagination. Regards from Gerard

    Thank you, Gerard, so happy you liked it. This is an extension of the first poem that I wrote called The Meld. Thought it might be fun to carry on the concept for a little while. Maybe make a story out of this blind poetry who knows no I really appreciate you reading and offering your thoughts. I'm so very happy you liked it. That's the best and I appreciate your time too. I hope you have a wonderful holiday and a great night!
