Oh! MY!

Kay,*

I'm surprised at how well this all came together! I know these are lines from previous poems of yours and I recognized a couple of them but when taken and placed into a completely different context they're unique. If I hadn't of known this poem was made up of already written lines I would have thought this was a completely fresh poem.

It's amazing how well the concept came together. You had some strong symbolism throughout. I enjoyed the use of relics, it reminds me of ancient times and with the idea of divorce I guess when you're married it feels like you've spent several life times with that one person. I was caught by the emotion, while I've never been married I can understand this from the perspective of a child who has experienced separation of parents and I don't think I expected to be as overcome by sadness as I was when I finished the poem.

This came together beautifully, I tried to pick a piece that captured me most but I feel if I pulled apart pieces that they wouldn't encompass the beauty they did as a whole, especially since they're already amazing lines from other amazing pieces.

Congrats again on winning Jan's challenge!

I love this piece! Very creative~ You wrote an emotional poem here... powerful challenge... well done~

I guess you can call this a chimera of poetry, a beautiful chimera at that. Like a griffen, perfectly molding together peices of differnt beautiful poems to create this one amazingly wonderfully emotional peice. Not one line by itself was less amazing then the whole peice. AMAZING WORK KAY!
