Congrats on your win for this charming poem--kudos for taking on the challenge of a fifth letter for "extra credit"--lovely imagery--do you realize you have several more B's, D's, and E's sprinkled throughout?!

Melissa,
This poem gives strong images of the sights of dawns sights and effects on the mind.
It doesn't need the beautiful artwork that illustrates it.
Congrats on winning the contest.
Keep writing and stay healthy.

Melissa,

Bedazzle was a great word choice. And then there's the cavorting breezes that dance upon the day. Great imagery with your words. The photo is nice, too. Congratulations on your win!

Excellent word choices in this--bedazzle, cavorting, tryst. Lovely picture of the early dawn. You capture the sense of renewal. I don't put much stock in muses, but the early morning is a time of quiet and a good time to find inspiration in peaceful surroundings. Good luck in the contest. judi

This ABC poem, Trysts at Dawn, has the proper ABCDE acrostic formatting and brings the morning on with all the refreshing light and wind to startle our waking senses. Nice.

Your ABC poem flows well and creates a lovely story. The presentation is enhanced by the image that you chose to accompany the work. Those early morning meetings can be the best part of a day. Thanks for sharing.
