I've never seen such a work before, but to be sure, I am delighted to see what you have done with this poem. The picture with the words express everything. You left nothing for chance. It is beautiful and I loved your wonderful poem. Congrats!

Comment from barbara.wilkey
I do not know the rules of the tetractys poems, but this line 'Take hold my hand,' to me is missing a word, if it's not, then to me it sounds forced. You are the poet not me, so if I'm wrong, I'm sorry.

Barbara,
I am limited in syllables so I had to word it that way...a little poetic license. Thanks...Smiles, Carol
Comment from Sally Carter
Love this one Carol.
The whole idea you have used is clever - growing, expanding with every line. Then, in that last line, the natural break after the internal rhyme of "hand" and "expand", those additional words which emphasise the human potential to stretch just that little bit further.
I would not have believed so much could have been said and implied in just 13 words. I applaud you!
Kind regards. Sally

Begin Again,
Your Tetractys is very inspiring and in great form! I has a great message and presentation. I especially liked your
ending line and in particular these last 3 words:
"expand our boundaries"

Comment from flygirl254
Your poem made me smile. It evokes a sense of adventure and permission. I like that the person in the poem is not only giving the advice to "reach beyond your limits", but is also giving an invitation to become partnered in the endeavor, thus excluding loneliness from someone's life. I think this is a wonderful poem that gives a great message to those willing to listen. Good job and good luck in the contest my friend!

Thank you...people have had different variations of what the poem means but mostly they get the idea...reaching out not only helps someone but it gives you something as well...either friendship or in love. Thank you for the wonderful review. Smiles, Carol

Hi Carol, this is great! I saw this photo and almost chose it for Sweet Linda's contest, but you have this perfectly matched, with your words and the picture "going hand in hand" :) "together" the key...Very enjoyable Carol!! Susan

Comment from Nanette Mary
Hullo Carol ...
This is well written and attractively presented and, of course, your syllable count of 1-2-3-4-10 is as required for the Tetractys format.
There is much that could be read in and behind your well-chosen words and I certainly enjoyed it.
Thank you for sharing this with us and I wish you well in the Contest.
With love from ..... Nanette Mary.
