This was a great choice for the contest... and your middle line just infers such gentle quietude... love it! :) ;) Thank you so very much for joining us for our romp into the realm of 'new words'! :) :) Y. M.

    Thanks for the contest and review. Who knew there was an actual word for some of these vague feelings? Cheers, j

Hi,
Not sure if you defined the "word" as required by the contest (thus 4 stars). Using "moment in time" is redundant... I believe it's "at this time" or "at this moment" ... Sorry, it's the teacher in me. - Lobber

Oh my! This one's quite deep! A little yoga meditation-esque. Cool photo of what looks like a bass clef sign. Cool obscure word find! Good luck in the contest. xo

    Thanks for the review. I have had this feeling, just never knew it had a name. Cheers.

While the phrase is unique and cute, the rules call for an obscure word, not a phrase. Knit isn't an obscure word. You might want to recheck the contest announcement. Also, the definition of the word is to be shown in author notes.

This is a great entry for the contest - and I love how you your words open up the poem to say so much, in a way that reflects how Newfoundlanders open up the conversation with few words. I've been to Newfoundland and recently spent a week in New Brunswick too. That east coast warmth is incredible.

    Thanks for the wonderful review. Yes, Newfoundland is Canada's hidden jewel. I love their take on language and the wonderful images this creates. Who knit you, is such a delightful way to ask that question. Cheers

I am big into family genealogy so this one is very appropriate. Do like the idea of 'who knit you.' I may steal that phrase the next timeI ask someone about their family lineage.

You may want to edit 'Is' without capitalizing it.

Unraveling one's history is always an issue, even without DNA help.

Good luck in this entry.

    Thanks for the insightful review and advice. Genealogy is so like a knit, that it has to make you smile. Cheers

I haven't heard of 'who knit you' but it is indeed a cute way of asking about ancestry. And you've defined 'unravelling' quite well too. Good luck in the contest.

    Thanks for the insightful review. I just thought it was such a simplistic way to ask this question, cheers
