Give Thy Pen Life (acrostic)
When Inspiration Visits Contest Entry18 total reviews
Comment from Gail Denham
And never ending is the desire to express oneself in some manne r- for writers, it's the pen and blank paper - just waiting for the right, rich words. Imagination, whatever comes to you, and the full ink pen - important to keep on.
Good poem

Comment from dragonpoet
This tells of finding what to write and the process of writing. How it is cathartic and something that will never end.
Good luck in the contest.
Keep writing.
Have a good weekend.

Comment from karenina
Six stars without a doubt. Eloquent and elegant merging of Acrostic and Sonnet with impeccable rhyme and meter and a pristine ode to just what it is that brings us to write...that hunger to create! I better be on site when voting takes place because if this doesn't take first place I'll eat my hat!--Karenina

Thank you so much for the fantastic review and the big sixer, Karenina. I think it comes up around next weekend. Sure don't want to see you have to eat your hat. Lol. I dearly appreciate the gracious stars and kind words. I'm glad you liked the piece. Thank you again.

Comment from Sharon Haiste
I think this is very nicely done.
Your verse flows smoothly, is well rhymed, and the acrostic doesn't seem forced
Good luck with this lovely piece in the competition.

You've managed to combine two different formats to create a wonderful entry for the contest! Imagination well used here to build this piece. Flows naturally and highlights the skill and sensitivity of a writer. Well done.

Thank you so much for the great review and gracious sixer, June. I like to give myself a little more of a challenge, so I try combining forms here and there. I'm glad you liked the piece. Thank you again.
Comment from royowen
This is a very articulate way of writing an acrostic, and a very perceptive rendition in the form of a skilful acrostic. The words written are intuitive and well expressed with great detail of the poetic art. Well done, good luck, blessings Roy

Comment from Ogden
What bravado! That was quite a task you set for yourself, in attempting to give thy pen life acrostically, in rhyme, without compromising too much in the process.
Good luck in the contest!

Comment from LisaMay
I do like how you have given your pen life in this acrostic. By using the older-style words 'quill' and 'let mine heart fulfil' you introduce a sense of timelessness to the creative process - imagination will thrive through eternity.

Comment from Janice Canerdy
This acrostic sonnet is very skillfully-written, thought-provoking, and
expressive. Yes, those who are truly inspired to write usually find ways to banish obstacles, to overwhelm them with passion and imagination.
