Dragonfly Reflections
Unbidden, random memories flit in and out...22 total reviews
Comment from Bill Schott
This twenty-syllable poem, Dragonfly Reflections, has the proper formatting and seems to allude to the millions of memories that we can only touch on without fully reliving them.

Thanx for including me in your 'catch up' routine, Sir Bill -- I know you've probably got a immense listing and I am greatly appreciative! ;) ;) Yvette

This is a very creative poem. The picture is so colorful. I like dragonflies. I find them so interesting. The words you used in the poem go well with the picture. Great job.

Thanx for the review on this short one, my lady -- good to hear from you (again)! You enjoy the weekend and get ready for another GREAT week coming up! :-) Yvette
Comment from Shanbreen
Well done, Yvette. Your 20-syllable poem so very well reflects the dappled aberrations, the random memories that flit in and out of the mind. The painting depicts "happy" memories. Unfortunately, they get lost over time. Best for the contest, Yvette.

There are many times when in this life we find that we have memories of our past that split in and out of our mind. I enjoyed this poem very much and I enjoyed listening to it. May you have a wonderful day and may God bless you.

Yvette,
Do like your rhyme scheme and your alliteration flourishes throughout this contest post.
I like the simplicity of your font choice for this type of poem.

Comment from Robert Zimmerman
Hello Yvette.
This is an interesting submission seeing how it is based on a number of syllables. You meet the style requirement for the poem but you have used a word that I have never seen in a poem before today. I probably haven't seen the word susurrations since it's such a quiet term. There you are using those polysyllabic words again.
Good luck in the contest.

Well, hello there, Joan!! So good to hear from you.... again, yet another person that I know I was 'in fan touch' with on a regular basis years ago, but who has seemed to 'dropped off' my notifications upon my return... ugh!! :/ :/ Yeah, long story there, but I'll have to reinstitute the 'fanning' as I miss your pen! And thanx for stopping in on this one - always so good to hear from you, especially since it's been so long! Hope to be hearing more from you soon, my lady! Take care out there and enjoy the week! :-)

Welcome back, Yvette. Thanks for the review and refanning me. I think a just made up that word. I have fanned you back.

P S While you were gone I published a book title "The Interloper and other stories in prose and poetry". I have provided a link to it on Amazon.com at the end of my profile bio page.

Oh, Valda... THANK YOU! Those shining stars are a bright part in the beginning of another long week! So glad this one touched you as it did... it was one of those contemplative times spent on the bench overlooking my back yard... :-) Take care of you and have a great week out there! ;) Yvette

Well, I think this contest is sewn up -- your 20-syllable poem is wonderfully evocative and will undoubtedly resonate with many readers -- I know it does with me. And it rhymes, to boot! Excellent!
