Very clever. I love the way your mind works. Good strong words. Glad somenoe apreciates the masters are still alive. Let's remember the poor soul, Van Gogh who only wanted a companion. Your poem is a real winner. Good luck in the contest.

And good morning to you, Loyd. Another new style for me, also. Thank you for your well-wishes and lovely review. Sue
Comment from Tedisking
What I pictured in my head was a long hall. There were statues of the masters of the house on both sides. A butler would lead the way explaining to the new comer at his first stay. Is this the image you were trying to convey?

No, it's an ode to the Great Masters of art. Like Michelangelo, El Greco, etc. And how their artwork lives on even after hundreds of years because of how it still impacts us all. But, loved your visions as well! HA! Thanks for your very kind review. Sue

Aw well at least I tried :P

Ha! I've had my times when I missed a poem's meaning by miles! At least you were in the ballpark! :-))
Comment from Roisin
THis is lovely Sue. We sometimes become so relient on the pictures to enhance our words, it's lovely to see the words standing on their own. That's what you have here. A beautiful Septolet. Good luck in the contest.

Roisin, thanks so much for your great compliment! This was a new poetic form I'd not heard of. Had to try it. You know how I love entering the contests of these short poems! HA! And thanks for your great review. Sue :-))
Comment from dportwood
The Septolet poem is a challenge because of the 14 word restriction and the two part requirement. You have done very well with this one and I wish you well in the contest.

Sue, this was great, and I have to admit that it was exciting as well. Whoever would a thunk my dear friend Sue would be involved in writing about sextuplets? Not I. Good luck in the contest. lol

Hey, if it had one more line allowed, it would be an "optolet" and I could have written a greater one on "OCTOMOM" ! LOL!! Now, get back to watching the news and explain to me why 'bama is going on JAY LENO show!! I'm MORTIFIED!!!
Comment from Rottie
AH HA! You have to use the rules to paint the picture with words, yes? That is what all poetry should be, but alas. . . I find pictures can enhance the words alaso. Yours was two words
Right On!

Comment from Judian James
I love this piece Sue, most especially your second bit ... perfect summation of your premise. Because it's so short, I think I might consider not having caps. at the beginning of every line but only at the beginning of the two individual "verses" just a thought that I think might actually bring more power to this short write. Excellent!

Jude, I owe ya big time! I've just changed it and WOW, much better! I am so used to capitalizing first letter in each line, it was like my habit just took over. But, with this piece, the capital letters were large and overwhelming. THANK YOU!!! Sue :-))

Hey, what goes around comes around, right? Gosh, it's so much better now.

MUCH better! :-))
