I enjoyed your terset very much. It was nice to relax on that rock with you, by the mountains. The field of flowers all around, makes for a very pleasing place to be to smoke your pipe and enjoy some time alone. You used the six words so well. I enjoyed! Well done and good luck in the contest. :) Sandra

'Mountain repose' is an extremely well written and delightfully descriptive piece. Penned with craft and skill. It was a pleasure to both read and review this talented poet's work. Good luck with the contest!

Such a cute and enchanting poem: "
'twas good to spend some time alone, a wee cry
to begin the year, starting with a sigh.
knowing in the village friends are nearby..," Thank you for sharing and good luck with the contest.

This is a beautiful poem, celebrating the freedom to be rejuvenated by the peace and beauty of nature away from the pain and hype of city life. Very good wishes for the contest.

Hello anon, this is a lovely poem, beautifully expressed and does not sound at all contrived in order to include the contest words. Also written in mono-rhyme with a lovely accompanying picture. Good work - very well done. Good Luck - regards Dorothy x

The six words bring you to a peaceful mountain sitting on a rock. That is beautiful.

I do not like the ending to start a new year with a wee cry. This destroys "such a beautiful scenery". It may be more appropriate to "Cry loudly" expressing joy and welcoming the beginning of a new year. Just a thought.

    Well it seems in my reverie of writing this I tapped into a real present emotion of the death of a family member we had on New Years day. Tough to cry out in Joy welcoming a new year after 2020 and all that was lost. Good thought though.

This was a wonderful poem and clever use of the words in the writing prompt! The scene itself is lovely, but when you see that you were required to use specific words for the poem, it makes the work that much more impressive.

Wonderful poem, and good luck to you in the contest!

It's an amazing poem. I give you a lot of credit of using the prescribed words, and make such a beauty out of the write. Excellent imagery, visuals and artwork.

This should do incredibly well in the contest, and I wish you luck in the booths.
