I love birds of prey, and the eagle is the king. This is a very descriptive nonet and describes well, the beautiful mountain scenery and hunting eagle. Well done..

I like the IDEA of what you're writing about & I love the words you're using to bring many images to mind. The problem is that the words don't go together for me, to form complete thoughts. It's more like random words, disconnected in some cases, instead of flowing. Still, there are many good aspects to your writing and the picture is the frosting on the cake. Good luck!

Comment from Gungalo
Distant scenes majestic mountain slopes
Clear day skies cobalt blue reflect
Eagle soars keen eyes survey
Lush fruited plains of prey
Talons razor sharp
Shrill screams exhale
Swiftly springs
Nature's
Snare
A beautiful nonet and beautiful subjects for this one. What a wonderful write. Syllables all in place.

Comment from Apryle Willis
This is such a beautiful picture. A fantastic form. I love how you circled around to the "catch". Talking of lush fruited plains of prey and eyes glaring.. Then, swiftly springs, natures, snare. It tells a great story as well. You can visualize the scene. Your friend, Apryle

A fine nonet in perfect form. I like the subject and your picture enhances your poem. My favorite lines are "Swiftly springs/nature's/snare. Well done and good luck in the contest.

This is fantastic! I enjoy the detailed, deep images with figurative imagery: "swiftly springs," "lush fruited plains of prey," "eagle soars keen eyes survey." Awesome words paint the 'soaring eagle' perfecty.

This nonet is a vivid description of a scene in nature. I particularly like "Lush fruited plains of prey". I think this will be a contender. Good luck.
