Rectify by Prophecies In Kodak (10 points)

A sad tale that lingers with the pain of lost love. We never want a true
love to be unhappy, but to love is to give oneself completely. The trouble
is when love is torn away, it leaves a hole. I liked the way this felt like a gentle
walk with sadness, it left me feeling sorry for how bitter and how selfless love
can be.

Composing Grief by Ben Pickard (10 points)

Heart breaking lines with a powerful rhyme scheme... just beautiful!

The Elephant, the seesaw and the Mouse(English Sonnet) by Mr Darcy (10 points)

I absolutely love the adventure of the Elephant and all his friends. I would love to see a part 2 as it seems to be hidden amongst the stars. I'd like to find out all about hippopotamus and his/her adventures too. Very different but magical for a Sonnet.

The Climb by Walter (4 points)

A simple yet relatable piece that says to me "get better not bitter" and I think many of us have had to do this over the years.

Blissful by Poet on the Piano (7 points)

What do we do when we feel confined by the baggage of life?
We have choices, I like the choice this poet made: allow nature
to penetrate those fissures and lubricate the good that needs to be
given life again.

Nameless by Violet Raven (4 points)

When 3 words can tell a million stories, you know you’ve struck a
gem! We all know love hurts, but to liken its potency to a gun that
kills with misdirected good-intentions is marverlous.

Buttercream by Poet on the Piano (7 points)

I love poems that make me think of my childhood, where skinned knees were all I had to worry about not broken hearts. It felt difficult being a child back in the day but now, I'd much prefer being bullied than having the responsibility I do nowadays.

Congratulations, everyone, and thank you to Meena for hosting, the judges for their time and well done to all :)

Thanks, Meena for hosting and to Everlasting for nominating my sonnet. I guess I'm pleased to leave the judge, lost for words. :) Seriously, thanks to our judges, we do appreciate you! Congratulations to all winners and those who now have their new poem honourably mentioned.
