Yvette,
This is a well written minute poem which seems to be about aging and fantasies about being young again. I like the colorful text and the artwork.
Congrats on the honorable mention in the contest.
Keep writing and stay healthy.

I feel transported away to a beautiful world where everything is just the way I imagine it, both physically and mentally. Joyous emotions and contentment abide here.

Hello!
Beautiful art work! Like, just really, absolutely stunning. I love how you match the font colours to the colours in the art.
Your words create beautiful imagery. This is a perfect poem for early summer. It is romantic and spiritual and full of mystery.
I imagine a woman sitting on a front porch, maybe in the country, watching the sun rise early on a summer morning, and feeling full of life and peace and joy, as she writes these words to match the moment.
I could be way off, but that is what I got out of reading this poem.
Great work!

Comment from Lucy de Welles
Just lovely! The way the whole thing appears is a work of art in itself. The gradations of coloring in the text, complimenting the impressionism of the art work. So beautiful. Love the idea of the relaxation of a stressed mind and desire for that peace to continue past dream time.
Well done!

Comment from Eternal Muse
Masterful word weaving on this, metaphoric heaven.
Beautiful lines soothing the mind and drawing pictures in reader's eye:
Soft incantations soothe the mind,
leaving behind
dreamscapes of flight
and heart's delight...
I wish you luck in the contest. With an offering like this you won't need it.

Comment from Alchera
"Would that the talisman of dawn
such bliss prolong,
and fantasy
set love's heart free..."
How much I wish I had the strength to be able to drive the fiery chariot of Apollo until dawn to remain in the arms of Aphrodite! Would this magic talisman of yours really work? Perfectly written within the minute rules contest structural format: syllables well counted 8/4/4/4 in all three stanzas, versification exactly rhymed, and beautifully described through its magical story lined content. Great work!

Comment from estory
I thought you did a great job with the rhythms of the lines to generate this spinning effect. Good example of form providing the framework for theme. I think your images of moonlight and stars slowly circling create this sense of magic and a mystical connection to nature. There's also a surreal, dream like fantasy feel to it. The possibilities within fantasy. estory

This confirms it, you are from another realm. This was so magically sweet and hopeful. It left me starry-eyed. Beautifully penned and aptly illustrated, too. Dreamy! Sending you my best today as always,
