What a gorgeous composition. The artwork is spectacular in its own right, but the Rictameter is a perfect choice to mimic the pattern of the flower and butterflies. Then the blended background and font take it to a higher level. The poetic imagery perfectly paints the portrait in words. This is a gem.

    Thanks Linda for a great review.
    I don't feel in the league of competition writers so I don't bother anymore.
    I appreciate your positive encouragement though.

I like your poem about beautiful butterflies and how they drink nectar from flower to flower. It is amazing how you made such a structured format seem easy. It flows well. Good job!

As I've grown older (okay, I'll say it - "aged" - yikes!) I seem to have turned into a simpering sack of tears! (LOL) But seriously, when something is especially beautiful, it brings tears to my eyes. Your poem did that, and you must have read my favourite colour is yellow (*smile*) because the artwork is stunning too.

...sigh...so gorgeous!

This is yet another interesting poem that the author has created with this piece of writing. The flowers are indeed beautiful. The bees and people alike are drawn to the. The bees are after nectar and humans are after seeds and perfume. Well done.

Not bad at all. I have never tried this type of poem, although the contest entries have allowed me to attempt others. Was this for one of the contests? I would suggest different formatting that is easier in the eyes to read. I do not know if the sites restrictions had anything to do with the way it appeared or if it was intended. The picture is nice, don't describe it though...verbally paint the picture and evoke how it makes you feel. Please keep writing. You have great potential!!!

This is a beautiful poem my friend. I enjoyed reading it and the yellow writing really fitted the poem well. The picture and the background blended with the words. Thank you for sharing.
