wounded -left withering - you capture the essence of the artwork perfectly- hope stems the bleeding heart - most excellent considering when I looked at the picture when the contest was announced, I couldn't think of a blasted thing LOL

    Brooke, YOU can ALWAYS find words to an artpiece! LOL!! Guess the rose didn't do anything for you? Thanks for your close read and great review. Always, Sue

    yeah, just looking at the rose was not moving me - coupled with your poem - now it moves me! :-D

Hey Sue! This is a great entry. Your version of the intrepretation is on the mark. The reason I LOVE CP's is because they convey the many ways one word can be expressed and thought of. It depends on the person writing it and their perceptions of that word and shows that everyone is unique in their thinking.

I would either double space the first triplet to match the second one or visa versa, hunny bunny. This isn't the proper format.

Thank you so much for participating!

Love,
Pen

You really do know how to say so much with so little. That is the mark of a great writer. You have it, you definitely have it. Good job.

This is such a powerful pyramid, piling on the words to heighten the impact, but succinctly. And, you added the strong element of alliteration and a sense of hope. Bravo!

    I don't hand them out easily, but that was truly awesome, tell me it took you awhile to put it together? That could quite easily be a published piece Sue, Credit to your emerging talent!

Ooh, I love your quote at the end. Man, that is one of the most stunning picture's I've ever seen. Could mean so many things.

Like that you've chosen 'pierced'. Fits perfectly with this picture. Just leaves me feeling sadly chilled. Well done, and all the best in the contest,
Heather

I am so impressed, Sue. This is a very powerfuol poem. As I said to Pen, I was not sure how entrants were going to interpret the art. You outdid yourself with imagery and power. "Pierced, impaled, inflicted." - wow!
'wound left withering'- fantastic. What more can be said of perfection. A fantastic interpreptation and clarityn pyramid. ~Contrats! Joyce

The last line was the gem of the entire piece and I suppose that's the aim of a clarity pyramid? This was well written and I've come to expect nothing less from you. Great work.

    Rivaling Mimic, thank you so much for saying that about the last line. As I wrote it, I felt good, but then have had doubts ever since. Ha! YOU know that feeling....don't we all. Well, I do appreciate it. And thank you for your very generous review. Sue
