'Gifts from the Gifted' is a wonderfully descriptive poem of artists driving compulsion to express themselves in their chosen medium. This talented poet has captured their un-ending search for visual perfection. It was a pleasure to both read and review a poem of this caliber.

A very well written poem with an excellent rhyming scheme making for a very easy read. There is very good imagery and descriptive scheme.

Heart, soul and mind; they all agree. - Your meter changes shape in this line to a dramatic degree. It might jus be my reading, but I think it wouldn't hurt to come take a second look, either.

Good piece, dude, and a KILLER picture!

The gifts we have such as writing, singing, painting and the list goes are wonderful to have and to share with others. Sometimes a word within a poem or story can actually help others in a very special way. This writer has wonderful talent and expresses her words in very special ways. I really loved reading these words very much.

I enjoyed your poem, 60s kid. Certainly the verse below serves to remind us all of what our artistic goal is: to be heard by others and to hear them, too. Larry
"Determined by the viewers' eyes
The artists' roles may soon arise
By building bridges for mankind;
A common language we can find"

This is a nice poem on the role of the artist in the society. I particularly like the title that says gift from the gifted. Your words are true. Art has the potential of uniting the world. kudos

I thought your poetic definition of the artist was on target. I would only make one minor change in the last line - "the times" -> "all times".

The first thing I thought of when I saw the picture was 'Gulliver' of course 'Gulliver's Travels'.
I thought I must be on the right track but then BANG when I read the contest rules I realised what a wrong track I was on!!
This is well and truly within the contest rules. The flow and pace... perfect. The rhythme and rhyme... perfect. The meter and timbre... perfect.
I am certain you will do well in the contest.

This is very nicely written, Sue. I like your use of meter and rhymes. The picture is nice too. I have seen some of that street art, and it is amazing. Good luck in the contest. I think you should do very well with this poem.
