Amazing write Linda and congratulations, regarding the nightingale poem, check your spelling of nightingale, maybe I am wrong?? and line 5 needs a space, otherwise gosh is it beautiful. Love Constance

a very CLEAR and vivid contrast of good and evil, or rather the places we can end up!! I sure hope hell is not really this way. (I can only hope. haha. I'm such a little devil)

What a wonderful way to approach this contest Linda-Marie! I hate to tell you this but you are missing a line in your Visit to Hell Nonet! The 5 syllable line is missing! I noticed you had only eight lines in the first nonet and thought something was missing! It was the 5 syllable line! I hope you don't mind me telling you this! I just wanted you to have a good shot at this contest! This is a very incredible write as it is my friend! I really enjoyed reading this fabulous poem! Great Work!!
