I don't understand the contest, went cross-eyed and cross-brained trying to decipher it. In all honesty this confuses me a bit, too, but I recognize it as very creative and packed with a punch. Good luck with the contest, Kim. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

What a stunning poem, poet friend. The last verse and the form are superb. If it is for a contest, it is likely to be a winner. Like you, I prefer the quiet peace of prayer. Though alone I am never lonely. in solitude I find multitude and in multitude i decipher solitude. Reiterating to you my wishes for a blessed weekend.

Have a blessed weekend, dear poet! Suzette’s contests can be a bit tricky, but if I didn’t do it right, I am still happy that it came out satisfactory. Thanks a bunch!
