You lift me from mundane reality, with wondrous flights to lands of poetry, where there, my simple visions come to be expressed with chosen words of imagery. Implanted in the heart and soul of me, your brilliant gems become the words I see. My clouded concepts there to you transferred to be refined through vetting of each word; to shape so artfully my thoughts conferred that mirror passions of my heart incurred... reanimated with your words preferred. No turning back once our sojourn begins; surrendering...the only choice that wins. The hunter and the hunted, we like twins, bind close together through the thick and thins as words and thoughts unite in final goal... all fragments melded to create a whole and we together merge in heart and soul. You soon present your gift of polished thought; each word alive, well-chosen, sorely sought... so bittersweet...my muse...poetic art. My poem shines in your finality; a diamond, honed from visions undeterred. Through mazes, it encountered many spins composing imagery through word control, until your tranquil spirit knew you caught that inner feeling deep within my heart. January 30, 2018 Contest: Poem On Poetry Muse Poetry Contest Sponsor: Beata Agustin Form: Minuanetta, which is a rhyme form fashioned by Gregory R.

Thank you so much, Gregory, for your very inspiring contest. I loved working with your form and I used a theme very close to my heart. I am overjoyed (and humbled) by my nice placement. There were so many excellent poems on your winner's list, and I can see the judging process must have been difficult for you. Sandra :) <3
