Notes About The Poem

June 17, 2026

For the poetry contest, "Forevermore," by Constance La France

Forevermore

Forevermore: is there such a place
does it perhaps exist on a star,
or, lost in clouds of lavender lace,
a secret saved inside a glass jar,
memories from a time very far

Forever more is in childhood’s tales
There it flies on a butterfly’s wings
It’s never found amid windy gales
but always found in castles of kings
And is in the notes a mermaid sings

Forevermore is the promise made
when love lifts those to walk on clouds
and dance midst colors of silver shade
Where only loveliness is allowed
and happiness is ever endowed.

I will find you in forevermore
We’ll wander through lilac-edged skies
On a bird’s wing, we’ll fly high before 
sending whispers in crimson disguise
to golden rays in morning’s sunrise.

Dear Ann, this is such a lovely lift into the dream-air of childhood and myth. I love how “forevermore” keeps changing shape, sometimes a star, sometimes a butterfly’s wing, sometimes the promise inside a love that never fades. It’s a beautiful thought that wonder isn’t lost to time, we just have to step back into it. Truly graceful work. Blessings, Daniel

Oh, Daniel, That's so kind of you. I love fantasy and have written some fantasy stories for young adults. I've never submitted, just like to write. I think, like you, that we need some fantasy and far-away, magical places to go to at times. I really appreciate your
