Notes About The Poem
Edward Ibeh's This or That Contest, Vol 26 Written Jul 16. 2024 Form: double couplet in every line

Acme


Images surge through April bold, a magical thrill I do behold; Across the earth a glorious rite, surpassing human delight. Clouds descend with minty air, their luster beyond compare ; This tableu...a prelude call, as peaks of my soul's climb enthrall! Such grandeur holds out its charms, when crest of nature's glow disarms, And her pomp explodes on skies that resonate with my sighs... To bask within this flaming scheme; earth reaches its height, supreme As ecstasy fills the whorl where mirth and magic unfurl A canticle rings out so soft as ingots of stars flick, aloft... finally the view is set in one fire glow I can't forget; sweet the acme of divine core as my exultations soar!

So upliftingly and gorgeous! An excellent rhyme poem that I dearly adore too. Big congrats on your well-deserved top win my dearest Nette! Thank you so much for sharing. Blessings to you always and your writings. Btw, I've invited you in fb but up to now, still unaccepted. I also sent you message. I hope you're always doing great. I'm always praying for your safety there. Sana wala ng malakas na bagyo na darating. Tcare always. Sending love and hugs

The cadence and the way youv woven words here to paint imagery and flow it with emotions is beyond impeccable! I love especially “ on skies that resonate with my sighs”” where mirth and magic unfurl” seamless alliterations too! Pleasure reading! Best wishes.

wow, I love your take on this theme. It almost felt rhymed to me. I guess because it flowed so smoothly. A FAVE. I would be surprised if this did not take first place. My entry sucks by comparison.
