After receiving a review from you I took some time to look at your beautiful poetry. I am brand new to writing and I appreciate your style very much. I think I could learn a lot from you. Thank you.

    You are so very welcome, ma'am -- and thank you for stopping in today, Constance! :) Sorry I missed you, but please know that you're welcome to drop in anytime for a visit... got a sit reserved for ya out on the front porch! ;) Please know that if you have any questions, I'm usually hanging around since it's summer time (during the school year, I'm more 'hit and miss') so, let me know if anything's on your mind! ;) :) Have a wonderful upcoming weekend and take good care out there! :) Yvette

I adore this poem :) I love everything to do with nature. My favorite pass-time is walking down trails for as long as my feet will let me. All that time spent outside, gazing up at the forest and the sky, and I never once noticed that jagged border you spoke of. You have a beautiful eye for detail. I'll be able to appreciate my walks tenfold now because of this work of art. Thank you so much!

Have a great day :)

    Wow, DG! This is such a lovely review on my little contest entry... it was just one of those things occurred to a mom and teacher who actually had a few moments of peace out on the front porch: all grades in and all of my boys graduated and moved except the high school grad remains.... I hope you enjoy peaking through there on your walks! ;) Take care this week! :) Yvette

    Nature is definitely the best place to find peace! You'll be finding it more quiet with the nest nearly empty, you must miss them! I certainly will... about to go for a walk now as a matter of fact :) Thank you, take care!

Wow, I'd love to climb into your mind and explore for a day... I'm afraid I might become disoriented though because your imagination seems boundless! EXCELLENT 5-7-5!

    Thanx so much for your review on this one... it was certainly one of my 'out of left field' writes, but they happen when the brain's tired! :) ;) Take care, O Lady of the North! :)

Excellent entry and well within guidelines of the five, seven, five contest rules. Deep thought behind this post. Should fare very well in the contest. Very well done. Good luck in the 5-7-5.

Yes, indeed. . .and who does know what lies beyond? I have actually taken a road that seemingly went to the top and it called my name to follow it to see where it went. Never went to eternity but it was fun to see the other side. Well written with a profound invitation to see what's beyond. Good luck.

A few words can hold a lot of description, if they are the right words. Your poem spoke to me. The picture you chose also heightened the feel for nature I have.

A very well-written 5-7-5 about an afternoon out in nature. We enjoy the things we can see but we would also like to explore further into indivity beyond the treeline

The scene you have truly projected in words, the jagged border seems in vision opens the secrets of infinity's key between the tree top and the sky borderless space; well said, well done. Write to inspire -- DR ALCREATOR
