    People are obviously voting but nobody is commenting; why is that? Is the poetry unspeakable?

    Perhaps they think their muse, or the one who thinks themselves to be their muse, might read their comment.

    Voted for Gumby, the Captain and JW.
    JW, I liked your poem, but I felt it would read better if you tightened it a bit.
    “The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream. The oak sleeps in the acorn, the bird waits in the egg, and in the highest vision of the soul a waking angel stirs. Dreams are the seedlings of realities.” ~ James Allen

    I voted for Edgewise, Baron and Jinxi. There were some very interesting takes on your muse here.

    Voted for Gumby, Baron and Jinxi. These three poems hit it spot-on for me.

    And Gumby, a wonderful poem. The way you painted the pictures, the scenes... Just brilliant. A very great piece.
