"Stones" is a beautiful journey through time. The steady pace of this poem transforms the stone to beauty as minerals combine. Beautiful! Photo to words. Best JohnC

This was so good it was scary. I'm used to reading acrostic that sound more like alphabetized grocery lists. Yours had a natural flow. I like the fact that the intro and final line were the same. Great job. Gretchen

Hi Mike,
This short acrostic reminds us how Earth's pressure and time can change
ugly stones to beautiful gemstones.
Good luck in the contest.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Have a good day.

Excellent little acrostic that perfectly sums up the beauty, strength and possibilities of the subject. This reads easily with no awkwardnesses and the picture fits perfectly. Well done and good luck.

-Nice image and presentation, Mike.
-Your notes are appreciated.
-You wrote a good acrostic with a good topic.
-I like your font choices, too.
-Effective imagery and rhyme.
-You have a good progression of
the process of how the original
material is formed into stone.
-I like the repetition of the first line at the end,
and the line "Nurtured at a steady pace."
-A good entry; good luck.
