Congratulation, Susan, on a most well deserved win with this wonderfully illustrated, composed, and presented Quinzaine.
Your "Little Bird Told Me" series should, also, be a top winner.

Your skills are genuinely shining through, Dear Lady-Poet.
It is such a joyful pleasure to read your excellent and inspiring efforts ... thank you! ~ Richard

Susan, your choice of artwork allows me to look at it and your words this way. The picture says to me you are a fallen angel and revealing your true self to him suggests that now he knows, will be release you to fly heaven bound!

You truly bundled everything together in creating this most excellent piece of poetry my friend,,,,,,,Jim

This-15 syllable Quinzaine asks a classic question -- would the one considered your captor let you go if you revealed that you are more than just the adoring, subservient person he thinks you are? Would he be caring enough to acknowledge that you have a right to be your true self and allow you to leave if you so choose or to stay under better terms if you prefer, or would he tighten his grip and become even more domineering and difficult to live with? You captured all that in just a few well-chosen words. The apt illustration is an excellent metaphor for baring your soul to reveal your true self.

    You are welcome, Susan. Having experienced a broad spectrum of life over more than six decades, I think deeply about and understand some things others may not. Your brief poem speaks volumes to me that other writers have taken whole books to express. -- Mike
