    You'll find her
    with notebook in hand
    as the stars blossom

    ^ The use of stars blossoming, omg I loved that you chose "blossom"..I mean really, what a beautiful way to describe a star appearing at night...

    You are so creative Holly, I adored this piece!

    What I loved most about this poem was the title! So creative! I loved how you drew the scene right from the beginning so the reader doesn't have to wait too long to figure out the setting. I like to become one with the poem therefore setting the scene in the beginning, as a writer, is ideal. I loved how you described the stars as blossoming. That was so unique and fit so perfectly with your poem. You could have easily said twinkled but I am so glad you didn't! I love how the title was worked into your poem towards the end because it just tied everything in together nicely. Sometimes poetry is the only way we truly do feel free because we are tied down by so many constraints in our lives. Nicely written here!
