You are certainly unique here in the way you present poetry. I will have to go back and read some more of you.
Here is my offering to you, to see if I can write in your style.

Centuries old she bides her time
Winning will be quite sublime
Others tempted her to fight
But she knew it wasn't right

She watches from her fixed abode
Following her lonely road
A battle will come soon she knows
She'll be the one to give the blows

She has gathered her army of stone
It is time for all to atone
Her win is clear for all to see
After all it came from me.


I hope you liked what you inspired in me. Karen

    Drop the she in the first line, and you'll be seven syllables.Like all the rest of the lines. Second stanza of first line take out her.
    That's beautiful. That certainly feels like something I might have written what you've done it in your own style and makes it extra special. I'm glad these words came from you and that you were inspired.That's a fine compliment! I thank you for that. I gave you a few little twerks and ques down below. That will line your poem up imperfect.Cadence and correct syllable count per line. Once that's done, you have a perfect poem. I can donate contest you choose.Pretty much, and it would have well. Awesome! Thank you too for your great review. In you, encouraging words much appreciated by me. I hope you don't mind me. Giving a couple little changes on your poem. Changes will take nothing away from your meaning or the beauty of it. Thank you again have an awesome night!

    "A battle comes soon she knows" small change " she'll be one to give the blows" the first line last dances take up the word has. Second line last stanza change, it is to its third line last stanza, change win is to wins. Small little tweaks keeps you at seven syllables per life. perfect cadence, that way and takes nothing away from, I must say a beautiful poem.

    Oh, my lord, that's just the best review! Wow thank you very much! I'm doing good. My book is released globally. I've almost finished book 2 of the series. I call it the spirit series. Book one ghost book, two spectre book three apparition. How nice to chat with you again! You can do anything you set your mind to you. Just gotta take one step out of that fear circle.Dip your toes in the water.At least you can say you did. And you are much better writer than you give yourself credit for. Onward and upward I always say! Thank you for this wonderful review for your time. And the great rating you have provided. But just seeing you here is great enough. Thank you again. I hope your Christmas was great. I hope new year brings you everything you wish and hope for!

Powerful, Lea. If I'm interpreting this correctly, it seems like this embodies the transformation of a tortured soul who imagines the strength of stone and fantasizes about having that sort of strength and then transforming herself into such a species where she now has the power to crush her enemies. This powerful fantasy has set her mind free and given her the power to face her enemies and triumph over them.

Perhaps this is a little like your own personal story?

    Thank you Jim! In some ways there are some parallels. An interesting observation. New mutants come have different mixes, and blends each having their own trade. Your own survival skill in our own places to do so. The battle is more internal.If they are mutant, or if they are human, each side determines their destiny. Super, glad You like these? Happy to have you as always. And thank you so much again. You honor me with your presence!

Hello Lea. You are doing a great job with the descriptions of your stone people.. your explanations of their strengths and action match up with their stone facades. Well done.

    Thank you Melissa! That's a great compliment! Glad you like this! These folks, these mutant people seem to be carrying on blowing out the end of my proverbial pen. We'll have smartphone in games too. New characters and such should make it even more of an interesting story, I think. I truly am honored and privileged to have you here.Always encouraging for which I appreciate very much! Hope you have the best evening!

This is a thought-provoking poem, Lea
It is good to see your longer works as you can fill them with so much more power and descriptions than the short ones.
The short ones are good, but I personally find the longer generally better.
However, that said, don't stop the short ones as a great truth can be encompassed in a few words.

Your poem brings out the strength of all women, I have always believed that women are smarter than men. Your superwoman poem is a tribute to all women.

Lea, I could look at that image forever! She's amazing! She certainly does steel the day for me! And I wouldn't want to mess with her either. My impression is that she is omnipotent as a mutant woman and her great strength and purpose is liberating to the author. Well done again, Lea, on another impressive contest entry about your remarkable characters! Good luck! Debbie
