I tink this is THE best poem I have ever read about the process of writing. You have managed to distill the essence into a mere sixteen syllables, and present it beautifully. Well done. kay

Magicians are very clever as to their tricks. Many of them seem so unbelievable to watch; I am sure several have gone to some kind of acting school, don't you think? I watch a ventriloquist last evening. Like your poem.

    Thank you Rosemary. Yes, like a magician somehow magically produces a live rabbit, we want our words to magically spring to life for others. Glad you liked it!

This is a well-stated entry into the 4-8-4 poetry contest. The text is a great size. The message is clearly presented and easily understood. The presentation with the dark blue text on baby blue background looks great. The visual fits perfectly. Good luck in the contest.

A clever 4-8-4 and your words are so true here, words are powerful and when they are skilfully arranged in a poem they begin to conjure the magic you describe here, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

How cleaver to use the art of magic to mirror it with writing. We, as writers
"conjure" from our "imagination" to become "alive," I believe. I appreciate your poem so much. With the slight of hand, words create a living, breathing, passionate dwelling. Well done.

The first two lines of this poem flow and connect well. The last line
says it all! I enjoyed this 4-8-4 poem. The author words are thought
provoking and using imagination is fun! The artwork is awesome and
compliments the words and theme of this poem.
