A very well-written Triquatrain poem. A magical meeting in the woods that turns out to be someone who plays magical music just for you to heat and to never forget the experience.

This was beautiful. :-)

Perfect month to release it, with all our Irish celebrations. I felt a Celtic lyrical vibe, while reading it.

Really nice work, damommy. :-)

Hi Yvonne, I enjoyed reading this poem. Wonderful rhyme, rhythm, and flow. The artwork goes perfectly and the title too. A magical meeting would be wonderful to have once in life, twice would be a dream.

This is such a beautiful poem, everything about it is perfect. Your rhyming and presentation are both exceptional.

I really enjoyed reading this. The style it is written in allows the words to simply roll off the reader's tongue.

It wouldn't surprise me to see this one nominated for the "Poem of the Month" contest.

Have a blessed Sunday, my friend...Bill

What a lovely idea for a poem, well written. I'm not sure about the double spacing throughout... maybe it would add to the 'carry' of the poem if you changed that (?)
I really like: 'Then, he was gone, the curtain drawn,' -

With best wishes, Writeling

Very good with a bit of Irish influence.

Have you heard from Phyllis Stewart? She hasn't been on the site for over a week. I sent her an email asking about her, but she hasn't responded. I hope she's alright.

    No, I haven't. Hmmmm. Now, I'm worried. Have you tried telephoning her? I don't know if I should.

    Thanks for reviewing. Let me know if you hear anything from Phyllis.

This seems like you were hearing the music of nature in a serene place. If the speaker did see someone, she probably saw Puck, the Oldest of the Old Ones of mythology. One who protects nature. Though he is generally thought of only British.
Which goes with your Celtic blessing. Well done triquatrain poem.

Keep writing

    I hadn't thought of Puck. One reader suggest Pan. I didn't have either in mind, but I'm happy you enjoyed it. Thank you.
reply by dragonpoet on 25-Mar-2018
    I thought of Puck because I recently finished a fantasy book where he was an important character.
    Your welcome.

Hi Yvonne,

I can't attest to the conforming to the format but I loved this piece. The rhythm is great and very pleasing, very lyrical in its own right.

great job

Hello dear lady DAMOMMY: If your humor was CA$H, you'd be millionaire. You may see me a zillion times; but you'll never see me limping. LOL. You style is adorable. I love your poem. It's almost as witty as you are pretty. I've imagined that your musician was quite a magician with such an enchanting tune. That he could make your heart yearn to soon return, to your nook beside the brook real soon. Then he'd reappear so you could hear his magic music once more. And you could delight in the fruit from his flute, a wayward toot, encore.
DAMOMMY, I've written a poem somewhat like yours. If you can spare your time, please scroll down my portfolio page and view my poem entitled, "CLOUD MINE." Thank you. rhonnie69.

In my opinion, a lovely and irresistibly charming poem, in beautifully constructed, and musical rhythm and rhyme. It captured my imagination and fervent wish that the encounter will be repeated and the place will appear again, when you retrace your steps and find that magic brook...
