Found Poetry challenge - time to vote
I received some lovely entries, so time for you to read and decide.
Please vote in the comments below. Each poem will have a number, so please note that in the comments. :)
I have to say, I know a couple of these people personally, and these poems are deeply personal, which makes them all the more special for me to receive them.
Thank you all for participating .

poem 1 - Ati
go with me to the light
finding ourselves in nature
put me in your heart
for two special reasons
my life and soul were driven into love
and that, I hope, shall give me peace
go with me to the light
finding ourselves in nature
put me in your heart
for two special reasons
my life and soul were driven into love
and that, I hope, shall give me peace

Poem 2 - SC
contemplate my life,
o curious life.
I knew not my heart:
eyes blind.
But see my heart flourish!
Be satisfied, not grieved...
Eyes sparkling, I love.

Poem 3 - Deb
A parting soul flies to the sun.
This realm left mourning;
bold, cureless wounds.
no strength.... no air.... no father.
Now breathe!
~pause~
remember.
Love!

Poem 4 - Lianne
His bones cry 'go with me',
speak what the world should be;
Virtue, soul, great love in all, that grace and hope will teach.
Imagine now my naked heart shall be so ruled by peace
speak what the world should be;
Virtue, soul, great love in all, that grace and hope will teach.
Imagine now my naked heart shall be so ruled by peace

poem 5 - Leslie
Far beyond mistrust
I'll give my heart.
Woe , grief, pity are fatal-
my heart shall be valiant.
Away! Flying with grasped hands,
I love!

#4 gets my vote, although they're all great. I loved this idea and had every intention on entering but time got away from me.
As much as I would like to vote for myself, I have to say number two really strikes a chord with me so you get my vote. All lovely x
This technique is also called "caviardage". Your poems and doodling are always amazing!
