I felt all stress leaving my body as I read your poem...

Nothing like a tranquil night on silken seas to allow us to count the stars in our lives!

This is my third attempt to reply to your review. I have no idea why the saved message was not sent.

Silken seas is a great phrase and terrific alliteration! Maybe I can use in a future poem -contest or not.

Pleased that this contest entry gave you a relaxed feeling.

Take care.

Thanks Marilyn!

I try to use FanArt for all my FS posts. So credit goes to the illustrator.

You got the syllable count right for the contest, and I liked your use of "o'er." The menal image you painted is lovely. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

Cool entry for the 2-4-2 Poetry contest. Good syllables count though the o'er sounds forced.

Nice presentation and imagery.

Good luck!

Probably does, but I needed for my syllable count and I wanted a descriptor for seas.
