This poem, A Mix of Meanings, is a choice representation of the challenge given. Your poem captures the purpose and renders a neat poetic capture of the theme. Nice.

Thanks Bill.
Comment from Anne Johnston
Great rhyming and excellent descriptions of what each colour means to you in your painting. You have chosen a good picture to illustrate. This is a great entry for the contest.

Author,
This is an exceptional poem celebrating and using these 4 colors. I am amazed that you chose "effect from and spectrum to rhyme. I can use that technique when I write some more poems.
Great work.
Good luck in the contest.
Blessings,
Cindy

Thanks for your wonderful review, Cindy. I very much appreciate the high rating you gave my story.
I was a bit concerned those last 2 lines made the poem's finish rather clunky, but your comments about the unusual rhyme have validated my decision.

You?re welcome, Lisa.

Thanks Dolly. As an artist yourself, I know you enjoy colours too.
Comment from Wendy G
This is wonderful! But it's not in the contest about colours? I very much enjoyed it and thought your imagery was beautiful as you chose to paint with each other. I could feel your joy in the colours and the moods they created.

You had me worried there for a minute,... I thought I might've done my entry incorrectly. Yes, this is entered in the colours contest. Thanks for your remarks.
-
I thought I checked. That explains why I didn?t get notified if it too. Best wishes for it; it?s excellent.
You should have won that other contest about caring for your father. That was very moving. Glad you won the winter one. I entered the summer 5-7-5, ( came third), and the winning entry did not mention summer (or heat) except in the title! The actual body of it could have been in any season. Made me wonder why it wasn?t dq since your first winter one was. I?ll never understand this committee. Anyway I thought your winning one was amazing.

Congratulations on your Dear God podium finish!!
(The inconsistency of the committee decisions and vagaries of voting choices are indeed perplexing... it's all just pot luck.)

Many thanks. I appreciate it. Yes, it seems to be quite erratic.

You have done a good job on this writing prompt. The rhyme scheme is okay, but in some areas, it feels a bit forced as in verses 2 and 3. Also these two words should be written as one (in to) word on line #1 in verse 3. You have selected an excellent visual. Good luck in the contest.

I enjoyed your approach to this prompt, showing us via the medium of paint how we also mix with words, imagery and emotions. I thought this was a very clever take and I very much enjoyed the read.
