Hi Christine! You should write for Hollywood because while I was reading this awesome poem, I kept thinking that I wished this was a movie!! What a great idea for a movie it would be. I would certainly watch it and I think it would be a blockbuster hit. Did you ever consider writing a short story about this idea? You already have a very successful poem. I think it could easily be turned into a successful story as well.

By the way, a big congratulations for winning at the Writer's Cramp with this entry. It is truly well deserved.

Thank you, also, for adding all of those links about Lisbon and Portugal.
Next year, my husband and I will be visiting Spain. We were thinking about going to Lisbon while we were in that area. You might have just inspired me to do that for sure!

I thought you did a terrific job with the rhyme in this poem. I love poems that rhyme, and this one seemed to flow smoothly. It made a pleasant feel without interrupting the great sci-fi story that the poem told.

Most of us recently experienced the Solar Eclipse, so it is fresh in your reader's minds. We can know what it must have been like to be so entranced with watching the beautiful phenomenon, and not realizing that there was a terrible earthquake about to happen. I liked that you added a Martian spaceship that had been paying attention, and saved the day by beaming the spectators up to safety.

I plan to look up that earthquake of seventeen fifty-five so that I can find out all of the details. I think that might be one of the great links that you added at the bottom. I wonder if there might be ruins of it over in Portugal!
