This is a charming contest entry :) I'd like to try a contest like this one day. I've been watching them for a while. Maybe the next one if I see it on time. Congratulations to you for taking first place. Well deserved in my humble opinion.
This is a pay it forward review as started by I am Cat. I searched through your portfolio to find a post that needed just one more review to bump it up to blue ribbon or all time best status. I hope this helps you!

What a wonderful idea! Thank you for thinking of me and taking the time to sort through my mess of poetry to do this. I will have to pick up the baton.
Comment from dragonpoet
Good rhythm with the rhyming couplets that use strong imagery to bring you into a magical but garden of a child's dream. It turns out to be beautiful and scary.
The artwork is a good choice to show the door that just had to be opened.
Congrats of the win.

Comment from Marvin Calloway
I usually avoid commenting on poetry due to my lack of knowledge about it.
I like poems that rhyme, 'perfectly,' without straining or almost rhymes.
But that's just me. It has little to do with how much I enjoyed your poem. It made logical sense, telling a good story along the way. Squeezing in that range of required words makes this effort even more impressive.
Congratulations on your being a contest winner!

Thank you for your time in reviewing and commentng on my poem. I had so much fun writing this one.
Comment from mvbrooks
fun, whimsical poem that at first seems a real event--but as it progresses are mild clues (like the fir breach "whisking" her up and then gently placing her down) that lead to the final revelation that the poem is actually a dream. Clever.

Comment from sbedian
Reminiscent of "Alice in Wonderland", for some reason I made that connection. I loved the descriptions of nature's beauty. My favorite line was "A lilac tried to make ME drink and grabbed the dipper cup." I guess it was based on a beautiful dream, and it seems like you love a nice garden. Great poem!

A solid write. It held my attention from start to finish. It was very descriptive and I found myself watching in the garden. Well done on this enjoyable poem and for winning the competition.

Comment from Joyce Long
Contest winner. Congratulations.
No wonder you won the contest. This is really great. I like the Alice in Wonderland affect: "a fir tree branch whisked me through the air."
I woke up. Your ending worked in well as there wasn't much else that you could do.
"Where did the end begin?" is an awesome statement. No one knows the answer to that question.
Thank you for sharing this.
