OId Faithful
For exams I played Allegro, enthusiastically.
For funerals Adagio, elegiacally.
For auditions, Rondo-Allegro, always hopefully.
My soundtrack: your concerto, most befittingly.

This piece has a lot going for it. I love the way it rolls of the tongue. Your choice & use of words is fantastic. An easy on the eye, feel good poem, for me.

I feel like this poem is a clear winner for me in that comp. it’s really thought about the brief and used it to great effect. It has a really great rhythm to it and it a joy to read out loud.
Thank you for sharing.

Thank you. I'm enjoying myself so much here, and pushing myself to write in ways I never would have thought of. I found the 10 word poems really challenging, but was pleased with my results. Congratulations on your win!

dear Ellie
i find the title has a sublime poignancy
it is always interesting what remains faithful
until we reach a meditative state of detachment
a warm smile
silent lotus
