JoeyG, you can imagine the shock this afternoon when I came online and saw your poem about a bird. So is mine. My son and I just finished reading "I Heard the Owl call my Name," Saturday, and I sat down on Sunday and wrote this poem, based on my feelings from the book.

JoeyG, your poem is a fine piece of work. O, thanks for the opportunity and thanks to everyone who competed. I am not much of a poetry reader, but I really enjoyed the work that was submitted for the competition.

So without further ado, I Heard the Owl Call My Name.

Each night the cry of the owl grows near
Its mournful sound a call home I hear

And I alone inside this room
As once before inside the womb

The owl hears each trembling breath I take
My ending time I no longer shake

He sits upon my window sill
His destiny he must fulfill

Now knowing the peaceful calm inside
The Great Horned Owl will soon be my guide

To take my soul away from here
The other side I soon will peer

He watches with an understanding
His soulful eyes are yet commanding

My time has come and I must leave
The tapestry of life I weave

My soul he cleaves with talons red
My body alone within this bed

And I now know of the calming peace
As my last breath my body release

And as the bird it takes to flight
I commit my soul into the night

You've consistently done a lot with a little throughout this little to-do, and as someone who always finds himself saying a whole lot more than is necessary I salute you for that.

I can't tell if you're going for a 9/9 8/8 sequence, as some of the pairs contain both syllable counts, but I could recommend tightening up some of the verbage so that the lines run a bit smoother. For instance: "And I now know of the calming peace/As my last breath my body release" could become something like "I know now of the calming peace/As my lips breathe my last release."

Thanks for being a rock during this event. I hope you've enjoyed it.

I appreciate the gravity of this +0, but it's an honest +0. I was not at all moved by this.

STFU, Bubba. I rated this according to it's value to me. I did the same for JoeyG's offering.

Beautiful animal.



How have you been?
___----------------------

I have been doing well. Family are all doing fine, finally getting some much needed sunshine and some much needed R&R. My son wants to climb Mt. Rainier next summer so I have been working with him to get prepared and trained, so I am really looking forward to that experince.

I hear you are getting married? Congratulations! Honestly, it is the best experince in the whole world if it is truly someone you can see spending the rest of your life with. It has its ups and downs, but the ups so outweigh the downs. Let me know the date, would like to send you at least some best wishes.

This post deserves a hell of a lot better rating.

---------------

My thoughts exactly.

And I love the fact that you based it on something you had read with your son.

Good work. You've been a lot more consistent than me in this comp, and you deserve this much more than I do.

I wanted to like this more than I did, if only because you seem like such a good guy.

I was even tempted to rate this higher than I think it deserves, but in all honesty this was not as good as your opponent's.

(Although his is overrated, in my opinion)

Somehow I think you will be fine with that, as you seem to appreciate the spirit of the competition.

Cheers.

This was quite good as well!

... but not as good as yer competition - normally I'd just +2 it, but in the spirit of the contest +1 is what you get.
