mikey,
I love the artwork, it's lovely,
and the words chosen just go to
show that poetry CAN be made in
just a few short words!
Well done on winning this contest!
I love the word choices

My daughter is studying to become
a Latin teacher and I couldn't be prouder!
Well done
Cat

    I'm so pleased you liked this. I actually set my jaw and told my self, "I'm going to write something worthwhile in this form if it kills me!" Hahaha. I took four years of Latin in high school. It is something one doesn't realize the value of till much later. I owe my vocabulary and understanding of language to Mrs. Vernalis and high school Latin. Amo, amas, amat... mikey

    Yes, my daughter tells her Latin teachers all the time that they saved her from uncertain tumultuous times. And I believe she's correct. It's always a good thing to find a place to belong. ;)
    Well done Mikey!

This is gorgeous in its presentation Mikey. I love the colors throughout. This 1-6-1 is perfect. You knocked this one out of the part my friend.

Always,
Missy

    Thank you so much. You are so correct. The world has a lot in it that isn't available looking at a screen. :)

I like the imagery. It really sells the point that knowledge is power and that it creates a bridge to the future. That's very hard to do with such limiting criteria. You should be proud.

Wow, Michael--I like everything about this brief poem--especially that terrific picture! You spoke volumes in just 8 words--and you made it rhyme! Thanks! Caroline

Oh Wow...that's really good, Michael. The picture works great for the theme and you accomplish that fully with your poem. I do like the rhyme and the message!

Very good, Mikey. These cute little poems really do teach us all about rhythm and internal rhymes, as that would be an eight beat line.

Love it! I think you've outdone yourself.

Best wishes to you in the contest because you reached. :)

    Hi. Thank you very much. I haven't had a chance to review your awesome sonnet yet. There was rising from my chair and running around the room swearing involved upon reading it. That's what I do on the rare occasion something delights the hell out of me. mikey

It's tough to inject much meaning into such a short form, but you've done a good job with that--and also, of course, with meeting the 1-6-1 syllable requirements and the end rhymes. The message of the poem is quite important in today's information driven world. Nice job. Good luck in the contest!
