This work has reached the exceptional level

Congrats on winning the contest! I love the alliteration and the important message...indicating a theme of interconnections. The AHA effect of highlighting the blossom's true beauty being the bee's buzz is sheer genius. Brilliant. I can see why this won! Bravo!

Warmly,
rd

Hi Wendy,
This is a wonderful ekphrastic 2-4-2 poem. It tells of the interconnection in nature in constant alliteration.
Congrats on winning the contest.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Have a great day.

Great idea for this contest. Nice picture you have chosen, and great use of all the "B" words to describe it. I hope it does well in the contest.

Nice entry to the 2-4-2 contest and the use of letter "b" up and down your poem.

Good luck in the contest. This could have a stinging effect on all the other entries.

Cheers.
John

Hi Wendy,
Bees are so important in nature. Just ask an apple!
Nice entry for the 2-4-2 Poetry contest! I especially like the alliteration with "b" words.
Bees are never far from a blossom.
Good Luck in the contest!
Hugs,
Kimbob

    Thank you so much. It?s hard to say something with so few syllables. But I wanted to prompt thought about the importance of bees. Thanks too for the good wishes.

    Thank you Dolly. I wrote and prepared this one the very morning before you posted your very beautiful one on bees, and I was a bit ashamed of this little one when I saw your brilliant one! So thank you for reviewing it.
