Worlds Within Worlds
An Acrostic Poetry Contest entry26 total reviews
Comment from lyenochka
You surprised me with "You spotted my acrostic" as your acrostic phrase! And I loved "Poised to dip querulous quills in the ink of intrigue" and "Creating worlds within worlds wherever we wield our wonderful words"
What a great reflection on the art of poetry and the reflection on humanity and words that we strive to do when we write.
Hope this does well in the contest!

A feast of alliteration! You excel yourself with: Poised to dip querulous quills in the ink of intrigue..
I like the positive note on which you end. It seems we have our uses after all. LOL

You have a good message that will greatly appeal to the writers and especially the older poets and writers on the site. Good job with that. But, I think the chosen form may be an issue, as, especially the first two words are difficult to make out. Now, for those not looking at the acrostic aspect this will make their day. But for the contest committee, I would suggest changing the form to make the words easier to spot.

Thank you so much - I did wonder about that myself. Do you think I should take out the spaces between the couplets?
-
As the couplets don't rhyme. They may not be needed. maybe at least group each word.

Thanks for the feedback. :)
Comment from Nottoway
Marvelous!
I truly love every aspect of this poem. Flows so well all the way through and the message is very clear..
This made me think of things I pondered about as a teenager and now as I near seventy, I realize I have not found the answers.
But, the journey has been enlightening and sometimes a younster will seek my "wise" counsel as I am now an elder.
What a twist!

I really enjoyed your insightful and thoughful comments in response to this piece. What a privilege to hear this feedback and also to receive six very generous stars. :)

Thank you for that beautiful response. I will look forward to reading more of your posts. I am going to read posts that help me regain my drive to writ. I have gone through an issue with cataracts that curtailed my writing for a while.

It's wonderful that you're returned. Happy reading!

This is an excellent write that beautifully and eloquently describes the "plight" and experience of poets. I particularly liked how you said: "Poised to dip querulous quills in the ink of intrigue"--Love this imagery! Also, the ending line was just a perfect ending line... the kind that's just satisfying to read and brings the piece to its closing point with such grace.
