This is so well done. I do not think I have seen a nicer, smoother, prettier poem on here in my three months here. This presents well

Jewell,
your poem is exquisitely written with fabulous imagery painting a picture in the readers head. The art work is amazingly gorgeous you used. Excellent rhyme and word structure, superb use of metaphor, great rhythm and good use of alliteration. Love and creativeness flows smoothly down the page. I love your lines: "I know you too have found a voice You visit here in freedom's choice Remember I do hear your song and welcome chance to sing along Inspire tunes again to ring in every new found offering Come dance with me between the lines to music of our heart's designs." I loved this poem which deserves a six and I have one to award you, I've been very stingy with these as of late, but you knocked my socks off with this one. I'd recommend you awesome poem to other reviewers. I loved you many metaphors such as: "listen for all silent screams, surrounding you in mystic hues, Come dance with me between the lines, All dreamers rise to vision's quest, Reveal the treasures of your dreams,Caress my mind with sultry songs (that killer phrase gets you my six), and when secrets rest behind each moon." I love the moon. Keep on writing wonderfully. Please have a super weekend.
Melissa.

This has me thinking about all the different things we could relate to our individual songs. Life being the main song. I love the gentle rhyme you have going on here. It's like reading musical lyrics. I can' almost hear a melody with it.
Lovely and so well written

What a lovely poem! The words you have chosen to use are wonderful. Your poem is very creative and the rhyming is super! However, as I read the poem I began to stumble a little over the inconsistent meter used throughout the poem so I went back to make sure. Using a syllable count for each line and stanza, this is what I discovered. The first stanza has a 8/8/7/8 count, the second has a 8/7/7/8 count, the third has a 8/8/7/8 count, the fourth has a 8/8/8/8 count, the fifth has a 7/8/8/8 count, the sixth has a 8/7/8/8 count, the seventh has a 7/8/8/8 count and the last has a 8/8/8/8 count. Even little rhythm changes can have a a negative effect on an otherwise lovely poem.
Once again, congratulations on a lovely poem.

Who's countin'? I wasn't obviously, but maybe when I gave a computer I'll go back and tidy up. ;)
I'm using my smart phone right now and editing is a pain.
glad you enjoyed it for what it't worth.
