Hello!

I found this through the 'Read and Review' button, and was happy when it came up with one of your pieces. It's been too long

This was a really beautiful poem. It's well written, it meets the requirements of the poetic form that you used, and it has a really great message. What I really enjoyed about it was the language used, it felt very timeless - which is great, because the message is also timeless, so it all worked together splendidly.

In particular, I thought the opening stanza was very gripping, and it caught my attention right away in a manner that was most effective.

I also really loved the annotation where I learned about the great contest and the poetic form that you used - I love author's notes generally, but specifically when they teach me new things about poetry. It's also really interesting to me to get that little bit of insight into why a piece was written - those behind the scene's things always add something to the experience.

Thank you so much for sharing this piece with the site, and I hope I get to read more of your work in the near future.

Sincerely,

-Cat
