This poem beautifully evokes a sense of wonder and ascent, transforming a simple staircase into a magical path towards a star-filled, sapphire sky. Its imagery is both elegant and imaginative.

What a magical and spellbinding poem this is dear Andrea! I love how beautifully you've chosen words here, making a seamless flow of alliterations that really allure the heart and I could actually imagine that staircase ascends in the satin sapphire skies. So gorgeously done for the contest! Sending you best wishes! I have been unwell and that's why slowly catching up. Hope you've been doing good these days :)
