Judging Comment:

karla's poem always leaves me wordless. There is not much to say because she brings real life into her poem and it is so visually
vivid and it engages the reader emotionally.
The first two lines in the opening stanza just drew me to read on more: "She wears magic on her eyelids as she burns april" and the second stanza is like sitting there and watching all that is unfolding as well as feel all that is coming about. So realistic
and touching.
