Comment from Erika Seshadri
I love this one. Can't quite put my finger on why it got me, but it did. Maybe it's the thought of doing somewhere incredible without going anywhere. Good luck for the Art Inspiration writing prompt!
All the best.

Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
I enjoyed your well thought out contest entry. Great job with the theme, the art choice, and your syllable count. If not for those that came before us in this field, we would know so little about our universe. Isaac Newton said that ' we stand on the shoulders of other great men.' (I may have paraphrased that. Thanks for sharing and best wishes.
Respectfully, Jan

You have made excellent use of your seventeen syllables in this ekphrastic piece that alludes to the days when scientists reached for the stars without
the modern devices now available.

This could be described as the infancy of astronomy, but without it, perhaps we may not be where we are today. A beautifully written 5/7/5 poem as an entry in this contest, well done, blessings Roy

A wonderful description of this painting. He looks like a dreamer and ultimately they are the ones who make all of the most fantastic discoveries. Best of luck in the contest. :)

Comment from RetroStarfish
Great poem! It is lyrical and evocative. The five/seven/five format really works for this. It is as beautiful as Vermeer's painting. Well done and good luck in the contest.
