Etheree in Palindrome

Palindrome Poetry
Also Known as Mirrored Poetry

A palindrome, by definition, is a word, phrase, verse, sentence, or even poem that reads the same forward or backward. It stems from the Greek word palindromos: palin, meaning again, and dromos, meaning a running.

    Well, I have to say that personally I am not a great enthusiast for verse-forms based on syllable count - at least in English - but I can see that this is good of its kind. Congratulations on your win.

    I called it! Gold! Great job. I love Desire's comment, "Is this even legal?" Ha ha ha. Sometimes I wonder if you are using illegal brain enhancements.

    Aww, great, now I have no chance in this contest.

    This is amazing, forwards and backwards? How DO you do it??? I'll have to try this sometime.

    And the poems themselves were beautiful.

    Always,

    A nice poem with a kind of strange flow,maybe through the repetition of the word "ticking"? a lovely message in your poem.Well done!

    Uniquely Memorable

    Perhaps few capture the mood of love as this does with its beginning love-thoughts and ending of its cycle. How brilliantly this muse envelopes love's picturesque frame with simple elegance. Your work always enriches me with love and respect for love’s creative imagination (he-he).

    Merry Christmas, Amera!

    Forwards or backwards will never make a difference when love is involved. This is absolutely sensational and why wouldn't it be when it was penned with your elegance and eloquence. I love etherees and making it a palindrome was a brilliant idea. This flowed effortlessly like the hands of time. The imagery is superb and I thank you for sharing with all of us. Best wishes in the contest. Love you my friend, Joyce

    Holy crap, i've never seen anything like it! You're sure to win with this, it's awesome, unless someone has written a palindrome, make my work seem plain haha its just incredible, I don't really know what else to say?!?

    And that was just the structure, the words themselves are fabulous too!

    (One thing thought, i read through a couple times and noticed "beating, ticking" don't mirror, I don't know if that was intentional or not just thought I'd let you know)
