I was always fascinated by fairies, but I learned more about them since I started to live in Canada. Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful piece of poetry.

Thanx so much for the review, Iza -- your support is always so wonderful and I am forever grateful!! ;)
I do so apologize for the tardiness (and cut-and-pastiness!) of this response, I have been (still am!) in the midst of converting everything to online learning for the mandated school closings for the foreseeable future. Once I get ?ahead? in this ?change of venues? (i.e., instruction in cyberspace ? lol!), I promise to be back to ?me? in my responses? you know, the crazy blonde fantasy chick! ;) ;)
Be safe and, remember, if you see any offerings/reviews from me, they are my ?escape? from this insanity? you know, my pressure release valve!! ;) ;)
Take care of you and we?ll be sailing smoothly again in a few more days? hopefully!
Comment from June Sargent
Hey, to these old rheumy eyes - they're still fairies! I don't care how old I get, some fantasies will never fade over time. Reality is over-rated. These days, we need to hold onto some things in the realm of imagination. I enjoyed this piece.

I enjoyed your contest entry, YM. The image is beautiful and a great pairing with your well-chosen words. I can see this from a child's POV up to and including and adult's POV. Thanks for sharing and best wishes. Respectfully, Jan

Hello, Mark,
Beautiful presentation! I like the Cinquain Poetry form. I like the font color change for beginning and end. I watched a play of Peter pan and when they asked the audience to clap if we believe in fairies so tinkerbell would not die....I got goosebumps. Good job my friend. Good luck in the contest. I will look for you in the voting booth.

I really liked this poem, my friend! The wonderful description around the highlighted fairies and moths brought them to life around the beautiful fireplace. We all see fairies sometimes!

Hello Yvette,
Hold tight, my friend, for they hold the keys to the forest of enchantment.
You've written a wonderful cinquain for the contest
with marvelous alliteration that flits through the lines of your poem
like sparkling fairies.
Only those who have lost the magic see moths.
It's one of the secrets of fairieland. Do tell!
Excellent picture to match.
Very well done.
Best wishes to you
Robert

If only we could all enjoy the beauty of fairies. The fantasy world is more beautiful than the crazy world we live in. You captured this thought wonderfully in your writing!

I love the artwork you choose to go with your poem, they are a perfect match.
You captured my attention from the first line to the last. Like you I prefer those moths becomes bright fairies dancing around the flicking candle lights.
Thank you for sharing.

Took a quick look and it looks great. You look great and handle all aspects well. Will go back and watch the whole thing, when I can listen, though its probably over my head lol. Good job.

Please don't feel obligated in any way, Marcia -- was just sharing what I've been up to! ;) If it wasn't for my 'baby' being home from college, I'm not sure what I would have done.... but I'm learning a lot 'technically' shall we say!! ;) But the time some of this takes... and the organization of quizzes and other work they have to 'turn in' for me to grade...? Well, let's just say I'm so very glad I am a very organized person to begin with - LOL!! ;) You take care and, PLEASE, simply delete if you want... :) :) ;) ;) ;) :) Be safe, my friend!! ;)

I don't feel obligated! I want to watch it and see you do your stuff ;) Id' kill for your hair, by the way lol. Who is your 'baby'. Is his/her college closed?
