Another deserving of six, so another apology on my part. None left. This was superb. I couldn't stop reading. I truly loved this story. And in my mind, I can hear Englebert Humperdinck singing it.

That was both romantic and magical with a wonderful sense of storytelling. Fine rhyme and flowing rhythm as befits a folk song. Well done. Best wishes for the contest.

Thank you for sharing this contest entry with us. I enjoyed reading this story, poem, song. It flowed smoothly. Good luck with the contest.
He called, "You won't be able
"if once from here you are gone!" (you don't need the quotation mark in front of 'if' it's a continuation of the dialogue)

Thank you so much! The quotation marks at the start of a second line in a continuation of dialogue were drilled into my head in Honors English--LOL!

Makes no sense, because it's wrong. One doesn't put quotations marks until the end of the dialogue. Please check the grammar books.

Gail,
I've just run out of 6's, I'm sorry. Because your story-poem is so deserving.
I love the mysterious allusion to the Moonbi Inn. If I ever find it, I'll know not to leave.
Best wishes, Gail.
An exceptional poem.

Thank you so much for the kind 6-star thoughts. I appreciate it. Yes, I've lost the Moonbi Inn twice and have been searching for it ever since. If I find it again . . .

Oh what a wonderful magical tale you have told. It was a joy to read and imagine - because of course how could one not want to dance in the garden of Moonbi Inn. Well done!

Thank you so much! I've lost the Moonbi Inn twice and have been searching for it ever since. The tale is a strange one, perhaps someday I'll write that one.

That is a incredibly beautiful song for the song contest. I love the picture. I can see the woman from the song vividly in my mind. You did an amazing job on this. Even the picture matches great with the song. I hope you win the contest. I can't wait to see what you write next.

This great sum of verses reminds me a little of the film Brigadoon, with the stars Gene Kelly, Cyd Charisse and Van Johnson, were this Scottish village appears and disappears every 100 years, I love these verses of yours dear friend, and fits beautifully into those wonderful legends of yore, wonderful job, blessings Roy
