    Short piece but I think it worth a nomination for the subject or the title was excellently described.

    Well done Raj. Nighttime seems to be when our silent voices talk to us, if we just listen to them.

    A short piece but nicely written. The emotion speaks through in just a short piece. Good job and keep writing.

    I like how you capture the essence of the night. It's so well described and the way you phrase your stanzas is just brilliant.

    Drenched in teaspoonful
    of distant dream-dust
    sprinkled by a lonely star

    I interpret this as you were drinking tea alone in the middle of the night looking at the star wishing for some sort of comfort to keep you company. I maybe wrong but yeah that what I got out of this.

    Certainly a poem worth reading to stir the soul. I really enjoyed reading it;)

    Raj,

    This was an interesting piece by you & if I hadn't of used my three nominations for this week, this piece would be at top of my list. I liked the length of this poem, it was inspiring... especially since I am trying to write a short verse for an exercise in RTVW.

    I found your word choice to be quite beautiful, some of the metaphors were stunning.. The second stanza would have to be my favorite, it was eerie, & mysterious to me..

    While the topic of being alone has been used quite a lot, this piece defined itself. It was elegant, and capturing. Definitly worth the read.. A favorite piece by you. Well done on writing such a lovely write.

    -Mel.

    I love it! Love the images you created.

    "Silent voices echo
    in the corridors
    of a solitary night,"

    Yay! I could almost visualize this :) my fave stanza.

    I think your opening and closure were the best parts, even though the whole poem deserves to be praised :)

    Well done!
    Shine on =)
