Diana,
NIce mix of words and artwork. It seems this poem was written for the pictures as an ekphrastic poem.
This tells of a love we all wish to find.
Congrats of tying for third in the contest.
Keep writing
Joan

Congratulations on having your 5-7-5 so well received in the competition. I admired your ekphrastic poem and interpretation. Your use of alliteration added to the intensity. Cheers- Joan

this is really a fantasy poem. The image expresses how the woman is dreaming about a fantasy world of royalty. I can see her rising up, dressing as a princess and stepping into a carriage.

Hello Diana. Your poem is technically sound for a 5-7-5 and I like the poem. Your author notes are outstanding. That is an excellent appraisal of the picture and verse. Good luck in the contest. Robert

A fantasy in ones mind to be cherished by one so special yet never to be introduced except in ones dream. In the real worl it is filled with unhappiness and death.
