I think you've done a marvellous job with this poem, capturing the grace and beauty of this 'Goddess' and her effect on you.
But you are going to have to prune 2 lines off the poem as the contest requirement is for a 7-line poem and you have 9 lines.

A very well-written Pleiades poem it seems you meet all the requirements except for the fact that your poem has nine lines instead of seven as stipulated in the rules.

A great entry for the contest! Totally titillating and tantalizing- flowed nicely without feeling contrived. I wish you the best - should do well. Nice artwork, too.

This work has reached the exceptional level

In my opinion, this lovely poem not only complies perfectly with the prompt, its adherence is smoothly articulate and beautifully rendered, both in compliant verse and artful image,. I thoroughly enjoyed my read, not at all strictly aware of the prompt's dictate. It was presented both smoothly and artistically, an "Exceptional" write indeed...

I know that seeing a striking woman causes us to feel like we've been translated to other realms. We visualize all of the possibilities before we touch down on earth again to ask her to dance. I like what you've done with this and enjoyed reading this well written work. Well done l

Looks like you are doing a great job adhering to that Pleiades poem format. I see T at the beginning of every line and some T alliteration with such phrases as "tender thoughts," "Tingling...transcend..." Dancing can certainly be titillating!

Your Pleiades poem is vividly descriptive, romantic, creatively composed,
and delightful. I love your approach--describing her as a majestic, mesmerizing goddess, then asking her to dance.

You certainly seem intrigued by her dancing. You describe your desire for her in so many ways. I must say I noticed something in the first line. "To see her dance in the moonlight, she so captivating." I suggest it might be better to say that "she's" so captivating. Or "she is" so captivating. I like the artwork you chose for this piece. I appreciate that this must be difficult to write using the Pleiades style of poetry. You accomplished what you set out to do, and it is interesting to read. Thank you for sharing.
Take care, Jesse

This is a lovely poem, and I am sure was a lot of work. Your words are graceful and delicate, yet show strong emotion. The only thing I see is that you spelled titillating wrong in the title. I think it is a typo because you have it spelled correctly in the poem. An easy fix. This is beautiful work, and I wish you well in the contest!
