Hi anon - this is a very lovely Kyrielle - it floats along beautifully as this form should do. Your rhyme and rhythm are maintained throughout the poem and the picture is delightful and appropriate. Good Luck in the contest. Warm regards Dorothy

Love the message of hope in the Robin's song. We never seek everything we truly need to know, lIfe teaches those lessons. I have lost a true friend and I went through a very sad time. I did learn to hear the Robin's song again, but only after I felt the pain.

Hello Author: I must say that you did a magnificent job with this entry. This style of poetry certainly isn't simple.
You have written sixteen lines, each with eight syllables, each stanza with amazing rhyme and it all comes together resulting in a great story for your readers.
Sorry, I don't have anymore "sixers." I think this one should be hard to beat....Happy Easter....Bill

Good rhythm here. Your repeating line fits in nicely, as should, without being obvious enough to upset the rhythm.
Nicely done.
Wishing you good luck.
My best wishes.

Hello Friend,
Thank you for your excellent rating and complimentary review.
This is the second Kyrielle I have ever written = challenging, but rewarding.

Comment from Pantygynt
This kyrielle interprets the instructions in the simplest way and repeats the same line the whole way through as a last line refrain. This one is written in excellent iambic tetrameters in order to comply with the syllabic instructions. The rhyme scheme here is in couplets.
The salient feature is the idea that the robin's song is somehow "felt" rather than heard, and unusual physical reaction that adds a certain piquancy to the piece.

This is a great entry for the Kyrielle poetry contest. You developed a good verse with The Robin as your theme. It flowed well and met the syllable count. Well done.

It seems the things you haven't done aren't as important as hearing the robin's song.
It is a sign of hope for Spring and new life.
I hope this did well in the contest.

Comment from nartoonla
Hi, A robin song is delightful as it sings and so was your piece, yet a little sad in the end... especially if that friend was once most dear to you. Whatever the sorrow may spring as Easter bring a new beginning slowly your way to ease that pain away.

Comment from Writeling
This has a very pleasing message. I really like:
'At times, I never did belong,
but I have felt the robin's song.'
May I suggest you continue to use the past tense in 'or be adorned' (been) ... and
'or seek glory' (sought).
With best wishes, Writeling

Comment from Zue65
Again, a perfect rhymed verse swaying with lilting cadence. The rhymes are so smooth and unforced , they glide while being read. There is nothing wrong in this piece. Excellently executed that I will never tire reading this again and again. Thanks for sharing.
