I really liked Virginia Woolfe Came to Call the most. I think all writers have that visit from time to time. I am just glad she is in someone else's hallway for now. All three were fun reads.
I voted yes!

I swear I already voted for these!!! So glad I caught this before the voting ended. I've told you before, but I don't my saying again that I think you write poetry the way it was meant to be written -- with grace and charm and focus . . . beautiful work!
Outstanding work. You've got the gift of capturing a moment and setting it free in the mind of the reader. Well done, and my vote is yours!
General:
A strong YES to publishing. I sense a bit of surrealism in your work, mixing strong imagery with deep emotional feeling, like a painting by Magritte, a play of concept and image.
If you have a chance, I would love to hear what you think of my submissions:
http://www.webook.com/project/josafatPoetryVote209
Content:
The themes in all three poems are unique, refreshing, and unexpected. (1) The idea of wrapping one's lover around oneself is infinitely intimate, allowing that being to sip away one's sadness. (2) The Virginia Woolf poem is abstract and it spits out in one breath, capturing a moment that is much like a spectral visitation. Was Virginia then a muse, coming in the guise of a ghost to provide inspiration? Ah, and inspiration like this doesn't "call" often. But it certainly did in these three poems. (3) "I Love it Best" is like a strong breeze that invites you to let go.
Imagery:
You master the use of extended metaphor, focusing the reader's mind on a very specific image. "A Sheep In Wolves Clothing" caught my attention from the title. The image fo the wolves clothing wraps around one's mind like it does around the speaker. The dove and the sheep seem to represent the speaker's innocence and vulnerability, while the love is the wolves clothing that provides firm security. Similarly, "I Love It Best" works with the image of Autumn leaves, carelessly strewn on the ground without rhyme nor reason, and it shows the speaker's almost euphoric state at having let go of all, even pride.

thank you!
Did I say before how much I love your work? I can't remember if I did and now all the previous comments are gone. But I do. I especially love how the phrases wrap around to the next line, creating unique and unexpected rhythms. A definite yes for me. Thanks for sharing such musical words with the rest of us.
Voting for it mostly due to "I Love It Best..." it's the one I found most interesting.
Thank you for your encouragement. I agree with Gereg ..your work is miles above the average in this competition..best wishes ..... Good luck! JDarrow
Miles above the avereage in this competition, these would be legitimate contenders even if it were editors rather than votes making the call. "Woolf", though confusing, is probably the best of the thr33, although I'm touched by "Sheep" (having been that wolf for a woman or two in my younger days), and I admire the courage of "I Love It Best".
Nice work. Keep it coming.
Nice work. Keep it coming.
My favourite... as I've said before... is "I love it best"... nothing short of perfect.
My favorites were "I Love It Best" and "Virginia Woolf..." Your images work well.
I read these when they first appeared and I am definitely a huge fan so you most assuredly have my vote.
lovin' it "I wore you" in my heart as i read your lines. great submissions. Good luck.
