Hello, Susan,

A beautiful constanza poem about nature. I love the presentation. I like this poetic form, I never saw it before. Well done.

This is a beautiful constanza, Susan. Great job with its style. Your words are well-chosen and create great imagery. Your theme is well-expressed. You are right about the inspiration that nature provides. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe. Respectfully, Jan

What an uplifting piece written in a format that could easily feel stunted and contrived. But this flowed beautifully and naturally. And you took us on a journey that we so much need in these days of forced isolation! I love contanzas and you did well with it.

And what a beautiful form is this Constanza. I love it.

With each of the first lines of each tercet rhyming weaves together the entire verse with each couplet rhyming to itself with serene imagery throughout.

This is a terrific entry into the rhyming contest, Susan.

Wishing you much luck with the Contest Committee.

Gloria

This is gorgeous and every line a poem in itself. Yet, it comes together and tells the full story of God and His creation. A beautiful offering, dear Susan, from a beautiful soul. Sending you my best today as always,
Sally xoxo

God has nothing to do with this.
He has nothing to do with this at all.
God has nothing to do with your love.
He has no care about what concerns you and your life.
God does nought care for the little things.
Like how you appreciate the wildlife
God does hate comparing your love to the life around you
He doesn't care for it one bit

    Kit, you must be new here at Fantstory. Please review the guidelines for a proper and constructive review. I see you have granted me two stars based on your opinion. We will just set that aside for the moment. I have been through many trials in my life, starting in childhood. I know pain when I "read" it. There is anger in your words and I am truly sorry for that. I understand anger always comes from a place of deep hurt. I will not engage in a conversation in regards to religion. My beliefs are my own, and I chose to live out my faith rather than preach. My poem was not meant to be offensive to anyone. Remember, you have the choice not to review if you just don't care about the subject matter. I'll admit, it wasn't a very good feeling reading your review this morning. This is a complicated form that required a lot of work and I am proud of it. But, I will get over it. Kit, clearly there is more going on here with you. like I said...I know pain. If you need a non-judgemental friend to talk to...reach out via pm. I hope you read this with an open mind and consider all I have said. Stay safe out there and I truly hope you have many many reasons to smile today. :-)

Loved your choice of words, how descriptive they are & how the poem
flows. My favorite verse is the kaleidoscope decked wonderland, I think think is an excellent poem for the constanza contest Xo-kellie

Elegant in presentation with astounding imagery and masterful alliteration. Refreshing--"visually delicious" just popped into mind; got to use that one again. Flawless rhythm and rhyme. Cheers. LIZ

You picked the perfect form and illustration for this absolute delight. Your words are every bit as vivid as the colors in that image. Your Constanza is masterfully crafted and reads well in both ways. I really like this form, which I have never seen before. You are so good at finding and effectively using lesser-known forms in beautiful ways. The second stanza is my favorite, but I really just love it all. Superb.

    You are most welcome, Susan. You are on a tear with these posts! All that pent-up creative energy you had to store away when you were too busy working has become a gorgeous waterfall of lovely posts.

    I think this one is among your very best. :)) -- Mike
