First, your notes -- amen. Giving thanks and being grateful is a challenge in trying times, but it is so important to remember that God is good ALL the time. We should offer our praise every day.

Thank you for sharing your faith in this lovely poem. Good luck in the contest.

Hello Author,
I liked your Thanksgiving Kyrielle.
I will say that the random capital letters confused me a bit. Words like Holiday, Blessed, Best, and Thanks, although I can understand you wanting to accentuate the word Thanks, it does seem strange to have it capitalized that way, at the end of a line.
The other thing I would suggest is a change in the font which I found a bit hard to read. Could be just me, or the size. I've used the script once before and did think it was a bit challenging. I almost didn't use it.
The poem is really good though, the things I suggested were all simply visual.
Good luck in the contest!
Susan :)

    Hi Susan, I read your review and I thank you for lovely comments for my poem, and I always appreciate the feedback. Even though I had received many comments from people who liked and thought that the font was perfect, I don't want my work to be hard for anyone to read. So I was wondering if you could look to see if the font I changed it to reads better. Also I took the caps off blessings, (that's one of those words I always thought should be capitalized because it comes from God) but I know that it isn't supposed to be, but left it on the word thanks because of that being my main theme. Thank you my dear friend for your valuable suggestions and kindness!

    I do like that font better, it's not quite as curlicue as the last one, which makes it easier to read, for me anyway. It does work better that way, I think. It's all up to you though, you're the Author, and it's YOUR poem!
    Susan :)

    Susan, I would rather fix something to make it better because there are many with vision problems, including me. Shingles in my eyes a couple years ago left me with much blurr so I can't tell. That's why I appreciate you so very much.

This is a very beautiful and well written Kyrielle poem you have penned about giving thanks. You used very good descriptive words that are so true. There are so many that won't have Thanksgiving, and some don't even have a home. We should all be thankful this day and every day! Thank you for sharing! love and blessings, Teri

    Teri, I was checking out the club event and was looking through the prompts and your requests for poems for mothers, which I'm sure, made me think of mine. So I didn't write a poem, but I did start a thread and left a comment and something else, especially for you!

It is Saturday and out of sixes to give to a deserving poem. I did find many deserving this week. An excellent entry for this contest. Although, I do admit I know nothing about a kyrielle. But the message of this poem is clear and beautifully written. Well done, Mystery Writer, Terry.
