Thank you for sharing the complex acrylic and your thought provoking poem. I liked the way the realization brought back childhood's memories. Best wishes in the 20-Word Poem contest- Joan

Thank you so much, Joan! ;) Twenty words isn't much to work with, but I enjoy a challenge when it comes to numbers - lol! ;) :) Once a nerd, always a nerd, I suppose... thanx for the review and have a wonderful week of lovely October skies! ;) Yvette

I'm in the same club! Enjoy the remains of your Sunday- Joan
Comment from Jasmine Girl
This is another good poem and interesting art. It is philosophical. Do you mean the eternity is where we are going back to be children again? It is like a closed loop. There is a show on Netflix called "Dark" which is a German series. It is very interesting about time travel and so on. I highly recommended it.
Well done.

I'm one of those nutty poets that leaves the final interpretation up to the reader, Lisa... so this is me smiling and nodding over here in response to your questions (wink, wink)! ;) You know, twenty words isn't much to work with, but I enjoy a challenge when it comes to numbers - lol! ;) :) Once a nerd, always a nerd, I suppose... thanx for the review and have a wonderful week of lovely October skies! ;) Yvette

You are a fun nerd.

Yvette,
As expected, you can do in twenty words what others try to do in thirty, forty words and still flounder. Super choice of artwork.! Best of luck my friend.

Comment from LisaMay
The title is rather thought-provoking before I even got to the poem. Sequestered could refer to the current Covid stay-at-home situation, or to the childhood rainbows that have to stay hidden.
We are caught in the middle - forever wanting something we can't have... we can't turn the clock back, no matter how appealing memories of those past times may be.

Comment from Mrs. KT
Hello dear Yvette,
I just said to my husband this evening how I wish we "could go back and relive our childhood." It all passes by far too quickly, and when it is occurring, do we ever really appreciate all that we have/had?
Beautiful imagery!
Thank you for sharing!
Best Wishes!

There are some parts I'd re-do and some parts...? No way!! ;) :) I wasn't exactly perfect and high school? Forget about it! Yessss... Sours and more and many logs for the fire! Oh, we do need to spend some time together one day!! ;) :) Thanx, my lady, and take care this week (I'll be in touch shortly... hopefully you'll have recovered your pride and dignity by then....) :) :) :) Yvette

This is a well written and engaging short poem which well meets the contest requirements. The picture is a great addition. It was enjoyable to read as the words fit together seamlessly.
