I got it before I read your notes. I wondered why you spelled beach that way. You're kind of dating yourself by using the word groovy. Very nice job. Good luck in the contest.

A very creative topic choice. This 5-7-5 piece creates a wonderful image of the symbiotic relationships that can be found throughout the natural world. Nicely presented.

Oh, cleverly done. You have the winning touch these days, and best of luck with this one. I like the play on the word "beech." Nice alliteration with beech, blanket, and butterfly, too. What a cozy picture of the butterfly all curled up in the leaves. judi

Of course, I get it. Your contest entry is groovy. I like the play on the word 'beech.' The art is a great choice. Good job with the syllable count per line. I like the alliteration of b. Your words plus the art make an interesting poem. Best wishes.
Thank you for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan

(Are butterfly gender neutral?) He/she looks comfy nestled there in that blanket of leaves. It also looks dangerously tempting like a salad for some hungry beast looking to slake its hunger.

    A lot more violence here than I thought.

I get it and I see a fantastic photo. How unique. Some photographers are able to get such original pictures. It is a match for your words. How they find such great scenes is beyond me.

Dear Bill, I for one, got your Pun! But I think only you would see in this picture, a beach blanket for a butterfly.
I do hope the judges at the CEC will appreciate the humor, and the poetry. Good luck in this contest

Good one, Bill. I sincerely believe due to the originality of this three lines, you have the winner here. It's not that easy to write three meaningful lines of poetry in the same poem, is it? Take care and thanks for sharing, my friend. Bob
