Wow. This says a lot in ten words and it rhymes. Good job. I am in awe of anyone who attempts, let alone succeeds in expressing so much in such few words. You did it. You are awesome.

Hi Olivanne, thank you so much for your very kind review and words for my Haunting poem. They are so appreciated, my dear friend!

Now this is spooky. Sleep will be a long time coming and tossing and turning will give us a good workout when those unreconciled sins show up to haunt us.
Excellent presentation. Your color scheme and the artwork enhance the message in your verse. Perfect word count and well chosen words. Your message is concise and flows well.
Best of luck in the contest.

This really resonated with me. Simply because when the day winds down that's when you start to think. No distractions or things to interrupt the flow of thoughts. Not just bad thoughts either. I really liked the simplicity and concise poem. Gretchen

Wow, this was so real as past sins have a way of multiplying. Wonderfully penned and aptly illustrated in only ten words, mystery poet.

Sending you my best today as always and my best wishes for the upcoming contest.

Hi Sally, thanks so much for such sweet and kind words for this poem. I know it is a little eerie, but it rings true for so many. The artwork is my granddaughter's and thought it was perfect coming down the bedroom steps for this poem. Thanks again sweet friend.

Thank you T for such a kind review and comments. You are so right, that we must look for the light and take care of them before they look like this snake coming down the steps of the upstairs bedrooms. Thanks again dear friend.

Wow! You got right to the heart of the things that haunt us in the nighttime darkness.
Great artwork to represent the darkness of our past sins. Thankfully, we can be forgiven and see the light again.

Well done

Well done. I enjoyed reading your piece and the wisdom you provided in it. And I believe you are right if we do not give our sins to God then we will be miserable. Great work with this wonderful poem.
