A mong the ash, the beech, the birch they fall, U nder the boles of white, beige and gray, T hickening piles, a golden cabal; U nvarnished leaves all in disarray. M audlin, they lack the rouge kissed spark of red N earby, oaks brown, await the children's tread. * an acrostic done as an English Sestet 9-29-14

I loved this one from the first time I read it (and I've re-read it many times!) it flowed well from one line to the next, which is the sign of a good acrostic, and, of course, it was also an english sestet, and I took the technical skill into consideration when judging, but that fifth line really made it for me - congrats on your 1st place win in my contest :)

Ahhh........ couldn't be more beautiful, and of course, you went beyond a simple acrostic, and made it a duel between two forms! Wonderful ! and...ps......I am honored beyond words to have a win in your "Device" contest......wow, Deb, what a thrill. For as you know, I hold you in such high regard! Thank you very much!!

I forgot to say I loved the photograph you chose. For me that too is important when we choose to add them.

This should rank high in the contest. I found it to be striking. I am sorry but I have to fav this one too. You are going to think me a cheerleader but I am compelled to react to my heart.
