Marlene, your poem was a breathtaking description woven with words. The line "Astride the dark cloud's fringe of despair" immediately captured my attention, painting a poignant picture of vulnerability and hope clinging to the edge of darkness. It reminded me of a time in my life when I felt similarly lost, yet still held onto a flicker of dreams. Your use of musicality, with rhymes echoing like whispered promises, drew me into the poem's emotional landscape. -Blessings, Daniel

Thank you Daniel. Daniel, my brother (from a song), there are instances in one's life that the force of darkness comes and drags you down, but with hope and faith you would be able to overcome. Vulnerability is a good thing for it makes us understand more and accept and embrace yourself. Blessings to you.

What an excellent take on this form. You’ve highlighted various forms of art and described them and phrased them in such a poetic manner to deliver how you perceive and profound facts in such a lyrical manner. This line especially stood out for me “ P oetry, when spoken out loud is a performance art, like dance, music, acting. So true: well said. Best wishes for the contest: absolute pleasure reading this. Sending you light always

Well done, Marilene! You have covered every form of artistic endeavor, including dance, with the grace and beauty of your words. I know this comes from the heart of a musician and that makes it even more special! Gratitude for this lovely poem and blessings! Best wishes for the contest.

Thanks so much, Sam. I'm not a musician by trade. I'm just blessed with musicality, just feeling every rhythm of the song that I usually self expressed in dance while singing the song, if I know the lyrics. Thank you.
