River, like silver strip Runs down from mountain slopes Rides through planes and dales Replenishing all lands Replete with nourishments Resonant with music Roaring and romancing.

Wow wow wow, what a breathtaking pleiades poem this is, definitely a magnificent take for the contest and truly one of my favs I've read so far! How gorgeously you've described the essence of rivers.. "Like silver strip" Absolutely love that! "Resonant with music", "roaring and romancing" I'm in awe of your R alliterative magic here and also, the way you've painted a fascinating imagery in front of the eyes.. This is magical~ :)

With your comment my poem gets a rare sparkle. Clothed in ordinary words, it lacks the ornate splendor of your poetry. Still ypou make others feel that they are great poets. Thanks Hiya for the largesse of your heart.

Excellent sense! So much like our lives -- we ride down from the high of personal ego, to learn the lay of the land and its needs for selfless, spiritual nourishment. We are absorbed, hopefully to give back blossom, thus honoring our creator.

What an amazing pleiades, ah I absolutely love the imagery and how effortlessly and creatively youve written this in a very vivid manner: i can see those rivers running down mountain tops, and how melodious the sound of that would be: great word choices throughout, that fits R theme. You’ve nailed it. Goodluck for the contest
