Hi Bill. Not only are you a writer but now you are an educator too. You are on a role (smile). This entry was clever and upbeat with flair as well. I haven't written in this format in quite awhile. Thank you for making us think with inspiration. Have a wonderful night and weekend. Blessings and Peace to you and Sara. (smile)

I am still learning so much, nice poem :)

We all are, Aysha. There are so many different forms of poetry, and so much to learn. I think it's best to just go with the inspiration each of us has to write. Write your own way, to let your individual voice be heard. If you like contest and the challenge of writing different forms, there's plenty of them here at Poetry Soup. It's always nice to meet new poets and see them grow in their writing style. You write very well, and your poems flow well. Thanks for the visits and comments, my new friend.

Oh wow, such a wonderful nonet poem and now you've inspired me to try this form, new to me! I love the way so uniquely you've crafted this.. Although I'm a free verse person but I love trying different forms and exploring vivid dimensions :) loved reading this!

This was my second one, but I thought it would be unique to use the form to promote the form. To each their own, Hiya. Your free verse is so beautifully written, and your imagery always paints a meaningful picture in the mind of the reader. Thanks for sharing your poetic gift with us, Bill

I am challenged any time I am restricted in writing. For me it has to be free like a wild animal waiting to leap!

I feel that way sometimes (well, most of the time), but I can write in any form if I'm willing to take the time. LOL Thanks for reading my poetry, Karen. We start another month tomorrow! YEAH! A poet friend in Texas, Bill
