Comment from Father Flaps
Hi Melissa,
Nice entry for the Nonet Poetry contest! And what a great picture, too. Could this be our own earth? Or is it a distant planet in the galaxy? Actually, I see those tumbleweeds. So all we need is a cowboy and his trusty horse. I'm betting the picture came first, and then you wrote the poem.
My favorite lines,
"Sporadic raindrops
bullet the dust" ... terrific use of "bullet" as a verb! It creates perfect imagery. Awesome!
Good Luck in the contest!
Hugs,
Kimbob

Who can argue with that forecast. Warm dry Southerly Foehn winds spiraling down mountain slopes
No better place than the desert since the moisture was removed on the other side. Tom

Comment from Eleri
This is a very descriptive poem and I love the colours in it. It has the correct number of syllables per line for the contest and reads well throughout. I also like the rhyming in the first two lines but why not carry it on a bit further maybe to lines three and four or even further.
Good luck with it

Hi Melissa,
I struggle to write what you write so smoothly ... Any chance I can your course? I'm willing to sleep in the barn. Kidding aside, I prefer Motel-Six.

Comment from country ranch writer
Many canyons are flooded by water rushing through causing the sand to act as sandpaper grinding against the rocks coming through. Many rocks become come slick and beautiful stone works of art. There are gems to be found buried deep with in those rocks. People risk their life to to bind and sell them for nega money.

Ciao Sugarray,
First off bentornata!
Secondly, I can't believe 25 views , 8 reviews and not one gave your beautiful poem 6 stars.
This is a winner ..there is no need of a pic ...
every line is like a piece of a jigsaw puzzle hence by the time I had read your poem those wondrous canyons were clearly imprinted with detail in my mind.
These are my favourite lines:
sandpaper canyons
raindrops
bullet the dust
I missed your poetry!
sandpaper canyons is beautiful description

Here we gave an excellent nonet that covers the subject well and maintains the syllabic rules of the form while maintaining the desired isosceles triangular shape.

Comment from lyenochka
Your nonet poem paints that picture well. The "sandpaper" adjective works to describe the color and texture of the canyons. But my favorite lines were "Sporadic raindrops
bullet the dust"
Beautifully descriptive and shaped nonet! Hope this does well in the contest!
