This is a lovely Kyrielle.

I like the repeated line of hearing the robin's song. It gives one the feeling of nothing mattering but hearing the robin sing with joy.

Good luck in the contest.

This work has reached the exceptional level

-Very nice image and presentation.
-You have good rhyme and repeating line.
-I like the topic, imagery, and ideas in your poem.
-Your repeating line is a strong one because
of the examples in the previous three lines
in each stanza.
-The conclusion is also strong, especially,
"At times, I yearned to just belong..."
-A good entry; good luck.

This is a lovely poem....I really like the style. It reads as lyrics of a song which bodes well with the last verse of each stanza of a "robins song". Very clever and enjoyable.

Mystery writer: an amazing poem with your repeat. I like the
images you add in with the kings, jewels, rings, scaled a
mountain and the robin. My daughters love mountain climbing.
Enjoy your weekend. God bless. flylikeaneagle

I love the narrator's voice in this poem. His modesty matches the idea I have of a robin: an unpretentious little bird.
Robins are cute and it makes me really happy when I see one in my garden.
The repeated line is sweet and very well written. The lines in between are gorgeous as well.
Good luck in the contest. You deserve it.

This is a beautiful kyrielle poem. I loved the artwork and the repeating line. Very winsome and tender.

I found only one hiccup in the whole poem and that is the meter in the 3rd stanza, 2nd line:
"or seek glory beyond my ken".
I think it can easily be remedied by interchanging seek and glory to read:
"or glory seek beyond my ken".

If you read these lines aloud, It think your will see the difference.

This is only my humble opinion.

I truly loved the poem and wish you well in the contest.

Blessings
Janet

    Hi Janet!
    Thank you for your thoughtful review! I agree with your assessment of that last line! My husband and I have been driving in blizzard for past three hours. Now at rest stop. Will promptly change!
