I enjoyed reading your poem, you captured my attention from the first word to the last. Those wooden statues were on heavy duty.
I found them to be a very interesting read

The use of the stunning Easter Island stones as an illustration for this outstanding poem is worthy of the accolades given. I would like to add my own in the form of FanStory six stars to a piece of writing that provides an excellent example of making full use of the inspiration provided by the contest. Well done, author.

I like your spiritual take on this with the smiley face being the optimistic who trusts in divine guidance to help him on his journey. The others could be his spirit guides.

Well J, I must say you are right in your element with free verse. You've done a fine job setting the parametres and illustrating the four corners of your acreage to establish the "mood".

Excellent contribution to the PIX This Club and a pleasure to read and review your work today.

This poem seems to have an ancient tone. You take the reader back and forth from the mysterious past to what we used to call science fiction. There is a comforting feel from this. The reader is invited to envision themselves also being guarded by your protectors. Well written.

This is so well told and very poetic. Great visuals and imagery. Awesome photo. Your words carry a reader to a far away places here you want to stay.

Four stone rigid protectors,
two on my right
gazing ever
upward and downward,

wo on my left
scanning forward and backward
emitting incredibly hard stares
toward any evil rogues roaming

Fantastic use of language and I love your artistic presentation and the font.

Your smile says it all - protected from imminent danger from either terrestrial or astral risks. Sort of like the bedside lamp left burning to ward off the naive fears of youthful imaginations. Eternally comforting... ...ec

There is a light feel and flow to your words. I like the image of the night time guardians, they give a sense of comfort and security. "Seeking the wisdom path" is a great line that shows strength in your words. Excellent use of words and free verse form.

I enjoyed reading this and I thought that your writing flowed really well. I always like to think that there are guardians watching over us and helping us to make better decisions. A well written piece.
