    Amazing

    It's about time people realize what Wicca is about and i feel that your poem truly shows it. It's amazingly written and i do applaud you. If you wouldn't mind, I have an "Amazing Art" section on my myspace where i show works that i truly enjoy, would you mind if i linked to this?

    Nice flow, interesting view

    Most non pagans have no idea, white witches and secretive practices all fill the mind. What I liked about Wiccans is they don't seem to judge or demand you follow a predetermined set of rules, denouncing anyone else that has a different oppinion. For me I willingly inhabit a hell, a place with no meaning but thats my choice. I can't see the point to life, existence or anything. Biding time till my destruction. Im glad you have found meaning because this depressive world I inhabit is just a void. A bad place.

    Your poem creates a place with substance and meaning, be happy

    I like it. It's original and unique. However, I felt that the repetition got a bit too much in the end, but I guess that's just how you chose to build it up. Other than that, great job!

    I think one reason why people would like this poem so much is because you can tell you want people to understand what wicca is and u get into detail about all the wonderful and beautiful things about it. Very good

    Rock on!

    Haha, awesome <3 I love it! I think out of all the religions out there, Wicca has always been my favourite. What I dont like though, is no one knows what I say when I say wicca- And when I say witch, its suddenly some terrible thing. And no matter what I tell them, its always so ominous in their eyes.

    Well rock on you <3

    This is good, and true. I must say, though, you are the very first person I know who can establish a difference between wicca and sorcery. Many people confuse the two, and I am very pleased that this poem managed to avoid that. While Wiccans and sorcerers get along famously, they are two very different religons. Please, do remember that! Again, you grasped it perfectly, and never forget it! Wonderful job, this really is a great poem.

    You really show a passion for your religion. I glad you wrote this poem. Even though I'm not Wicca, I like to learn about other people's reiligon. The poem was very clever with all the reference about nature,

    A very informative write. You express yourself beautifully within it. I think to improve this you could keep the lines a little more of the same length.. It broke up the flow at the beginning as the number of syllables changed oer line and so i didn't really get into it until the last 3 stanzas.
    Also, some punctuation would help it flow a little better, especially where comma's are needed in the middle of line such as "Wicca is being humble, giving and mild"

    Good luck in the contest.
    Moon Bless.

    Super Fantastic

    Amen! This is awesome and so beautifully written. Wicca is all this and so much more. This brings forth to the world that Wicca is not broomsticks, spells and potions, but a love for Mother Earth and all Her creations. Wiccanism is a beautiful path to follow and you have really created a lovely poem doing complete justice to it. I love the rhyming, imagery, alliteration (summer sun) and flow of this. The last line of this poem is my favourite. I like the repetition "Wicca is..." It makes the poem more powerful

    Blessed be dear friend

    All the best in all you do,

    A good piece of peotry. Though I was not particularly keen on the constant repetition of the words 'Wicca is'. I feel the poem would be much stronger ig you just said that once at the beginning of each stanza then said the following words.

    Thank you so much for gracing my contest with such an eloquent, lovely poem! I love this. I would applaud now, but I have to save my applause for when the contest is over. Definitely an excellent poem, though, and possibly trophy-worthy. We'll see. Blessings, In Frith (that means "in peace"), Sigrun

    WOWOWOWOWOW! You know I never really quite understood Wicca, and yet I feel at peace when reading this. I have never SERIOUSLY looked into it and gone into it, either. This was absolutely amazing, and it also wants to bring a tear to my eye because in today's society when you're something other than a christian you're frowned upon, and people seem to really fear this because they think it's all satanist and crap. This brings new life and new hope to something so old and something that seems to be pure from reading this. This was...amazing to me because I've gone to websites and tried to look into it in the past and it never really all came to me. I love how you shed light upon such a rejected subject. You did and awesome job and I wish you all the best in the world.



    With lots and lots and lots of love,

    How beautiful and so very truthful. So nice to see a positive light shed upon a subject that has been somewhat frowned upon and not taken seriously. Thank you so much for sharing this. I loved all of it...but the closing lines just really caputred my the most..
    "Wicca is the song of the birds and other creatures of the wild
    Wicca is being humble giving and mild
    Wicca is being in the presence of the Mother Nature's earth
    Wicca is understanding every beings worth"

    excellent informative piece

    this one is excellent extremely worthy of the praise bieng heaped upon it, surely no one in the poetry field can expect everyone to be the same, the variety of styles topics and poets means we can be individualistic and if anyone objects due to the subject matter then they don't have to read it, an excellent piece well done. Oh and one more thing, if everyone lived in harmony with nature we would be a lot better place than we are today.

    Wow. You really expressed the spirituality beautifully in this. The vivid imagery was remarkable.

    "Wicca is the forest in the light of a glowing moon"
    "Wicca is the morning dew on the petals of a beautiful flower
    Wicca is a cool refreshing springtime rain shower

    Wicca is the gentle caress of a warm summer breeze upon your skin
    Wicca is the harmony we all feel within
    Wicca is the warmth of the summer sun on your face
    Wicca is when nature you do embrace"
    "Wicca is fresh clean air that tastes so sweet"

    It's lines like those that make me want to go out and commune with nature. When I get some good insect repellant I might just do that. Thank you for sharing this lovely poem.

So I applaud you for sharing information with others and hope you don't recieve any negativity. We all need to love and be more accepting of one another. Jacki
