'Watermarked by hand of grace...' What a perfect line!

You selected a nice picture to begin the thoughts on your poem.

Best of luck in the ABC writing prompt contest.

A very well-written ABC poem. In the darkness the smallest light is visible and when it grows into a Kaleidoscope of color and light it is the most beautiful sight we can see.

This is an orderly composed poem tells about timidity; I find the flow of thoughts is free, with some good word imagery; well said, well done; thanks for sharing this. ALCREATOR

This work has reached the exceptional level

What a joy to read. Your creativity shined throughout this poem from beginning to end. My favorite line is the one that begins with "Unbowed". It made me think of fearlessness with good intentions. Your poem resembled the gracefulness of the butterfly and highlighted it's unique features and strengths.

All elements here. This is the third mention of Kaleidoscopes that I have read today. Must be a theme going on. Indeed, the art work and the last line tie this concept of changing scenes together in this piece. The viceroy by faith, hope, grace, can surely create a scene that is delightful, and never stop until he is satisfied with his picture. Darkness to light. The kaleidoscope must be turned to the light before a picture, design, can form.
Very nice!
Lucy

Stunning imagery--elegant and startling--masterful wordplay re dual meanings--of viceroy and kaleidoscope--thanks for footnote! Fine work, even apart from the added challenge of the form--impressive choice of uncommon letter sequence. Cheers. LIZ

What beautiful images in both the poem and the illustration you've selected. My favorite line is "Viceroys with wings of faith." What a lot of meaning lies in that line. Thanks for sharing this, and thank you for the information about the Viceroy butterfly.
