The comparisons and imagery are great...(serene escape to connect)(in distinct folds and layers of plentitude)
(as I breathe out my internal race)love the imagery of the 5th verse..(emerges into a magnificent fresh healed vase)
Love it.. Bryan

This is a well written poem with a smooth flow of words, making for an easy read. The exercise looks simple, but it's not for me. Good luck in your contest.

To amanda,
A very surreal poem that twinges on the goodness that yoga can bring to the body.
Hopefully dispelling any chance of depression and fractures of the body on a normal day.
Great rhythm and a fine presentation to the subject.

I like your theme, you used the words well. The worthy theme/ode to child's pose/some kinda yoga and the connection to spiritual rise is driven well.

Bets of luck

Hi amada,

You used the required words with ease, they are not forced but fit into the lines of this poem well. You wrote this well. The theme and word choices are excellent. Good luck in the contest...blessings....chey

Amada, I have never attempted yogo as a form of relaxation, or considered it a spiritual journey of sorts. You atistically brings its practice o life, and I love your brief history given.

Thank you for sharing

Absolutely brilliant Amada, and I like so many others by Friday, have no sixers left. Every line in every verse is superb!! This is the best I have read for this contest.
A smart, smooth, clever, flowing piece. Just superb!!

    I am so, so sorry I have no sixes for you. Just a superb piece of writing. It should be printed as a poster and hung in Yoga Studios everywhere!

Wonderful use of the words required, making yoga attractive to those of us who cannot get into one of those poses.
Your words are peaceful, well written.
