specificity in poetry narrows down possibility. With this nonet, I portray my theme as a word stream. See it now narrow as it flows with exactness to the end. April 17, 2019

And from a lump of coal into a diamond. Specificity. That words a poem unto itself. :) I almost have to bite my lip just to wrap my mouth around it. :)

I had such a wonderful time, Connie. I only wish I had made a whole week of it and enjoyed lots of international movies. Whether the movie ever makes it or not, it was a once- in -a lifetime thrill.

It's also shaped like a spinning top! Lovely execution.

Apology not accepted as this is practically perfect in every way, Andrea.

G'day Andrea … appears to me you end up with little unless there is an exactness of word use. Very good Andrea - Lindsay

Haven't given much thought to the theme either, Andrea..but I guess they mean: instead of using the word flower..tell what type of flower it is (rose, jasmine). I admire how you write for so many contests so well..with exactness to the end. All the best, Andrea. I am certain I missed your poems last week..I was away.

thanks for telling me that. It makes great sense to me now, what you said!!I've been away too, vijay. Please see my other poem, which I think is much better than this one.

Very cleverly done Andrea. I would be totally out of my area on this one. You show great imagination in this. Well Done. God Bless, JB
