Your nonet contest entry is in perfect form, Mystery Author. Together with the image your poem is remarkable. Good job with the syllable count per line. Your message is loud and clear and so true even if it's difficult for those left behind to understand.
Best wishes.
Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan

What a stunning image, and the presentation of white on black is perfect for this Nonet. Your theme is well expressed in these nine powerful lines. Best wishes for the contest.

This is quite nice, and I love the center formatting with white text and black background, that goes along nicely with the picture.

Good luck in the Nonet Poem Contest.

Have a great evening.

Don't grieve for me

A fine entry for the Nonet Poem Contest. I like the Nonet Poem form. It has an spiritual sense. Your poem flows well. The structure makes sense. It draws on emotions. it presents strong images.

What a superbly written Nonet my friend. One of the most difficult things to do is to make this great shape out of the form, and you've done yourself very proud with this beauty. Well done, good luck, blessings Roy

A nice message conveyed in a difficult format. I know the prompt says Nonet is a simple format, but I've written some, and it isn't that easy. Yours was well written and beautifully presented.

I like the depth of the message in the poem. How you have managed in so few words to express what could so easily fill pages is really awesome. This one is a good read. Perhaps I will try a nonet poem someday.

This work has reached the exceptional level

I decided to promote and write this review on behalf of your words hit my soul. Thoroughly. I just lost a friend a moth ago. We both found out the same day that our cancer forms had become terminal and we used to say the title of your poem to the ones who pushed us away or treated us as if we were already dead.. Dont grieve for me im not dead yet. And even when I do die it wont be my death it will be my beginning

Greif is suffered by the living as death halts any more feeling for the dead, it is the end of suffering fo them, the final release and I know my Grandma wanted to go and finally gave her our blessing. A fine nonet, good sentiment and perfectly formed, love Dolly x
