Short, sweet and to the point. Yes, I could hear the music. Your poem had a lyrical style. I enjoyed it.

Helga, this was a really fascinating read. Some of your word useage made me go back and re-read some lines for the enjoyment. I hope you'll keep entering the Challenge. Unfortunately, this entry (at just 79 words) was way under the minimum word count allowed and had to be disqualified. I'm sorry. You aren't the first person to miss the guidelines about word count, so don't feel bad about it. We have several miss them every week. It's 150 words minimum and 750 words maximum. With love, Deb (Challenge Coordinator)

Very evocative piece, love the way you loaded the words 'whole spirit'.
