Good Lord, what a task. This will take some sorting...must have a look back and see.

I would like to recommend the fabulous 'And she is drowning before the silt' by HaiAnh. It does that magical thing of mixing the commonplace and the profound. The poetic voice feels authentic and original and the poem sounds beautiful when read aloud.

It's all contrived - and inevitably subjective - but we should get a couple of very good pieces flagged up as a result!

I've chosen mine - but I am still open to suggestions! They'll go up tomorrow (Friday), so go on, convince me of your choice.

Detective Dogrel by Celticman for sheer silly cleverness.

oops, should I have chosen from all the stories of the week? Oh well, never mind. Hardly a crime.

Not at all - they can come from anywhere but I must admit that I restricted myself to that area!

MistakenMagic's poem Siren. I found it so powerful and her images uniquely beautiful. There are so many wonderful poems and stories on abctales, it's quite a challenge.
