Dear Edward, the natural beauty of your imagery brings me to the center of your “field of yellow gold” with ease. Your last three lines are a grand finale to a brilliant poem. A round of applause for your lovely win in Constance’s contest. Your format is striking and your Yalto poetry form frames your artistry beautifully. Warmest wishes, my friend.. ~Susan
