Hello Sharon. Thanks so much. It was difficult for me to write the rondeau. It took me two weeks to get it right. So glad you liked it!!

Hi Sugarray.
First off, I wish I could give you a six, but I'm out.
This is a flawless rondeau with rhyme and meter scheme followed correctly.
You have great descriptors...reflections of a maiden's blush...so pretty.
Rondeaus are hard and you've met the challenge admirably!
Best luck with this strong entry.

i am not a poet and can't judge the technicalities in regard to your poem. But your words took me to a beautiful place of calm and tranquility. Taking in the beauty of the day, letting go of the burdens we carry, and drinking in the moment ... wow, what a place to be!
Hugs, Carol

Comment from Jill McCauslin
I love the poem and your comment about fireflies being three syllables. I'm trying to change my pronunciation to understand that! Lovely rhymes. It doesn't feel forced at all. Good luck with the contest. Also, I like the photograph.

Hi Jill. Thank you for your lovely comments. In the South, we say fire as a two syllable word.. I do not know why, we just do, but I must admit we add syllables to a lot of words and draw out endings for an hour or two? wink :)

A lovely Rondeau, written, "as daylight fades." Melissa, you know how to dance with your poetic pen. :) I got to start writing other forms of poetry. I know how, but lately, I haven't even wanted to try. Thank you for sharing. This is a very good offering for the Rhyming Poetry Contest.
