| Posted by Tony Whitaker on 10/04/09 at 02:03 AM I too have suggested this for POTD. I had to read it three times to soak in all it says (plus it is 4 am and just getting up). What a great read to start the morning Glenn! |
| Posted by Clara Mae Gregory on 10/04/09 at 12:43 PM Outstanding poetry! It has my vote for potd and going in my favorites too. This is one of your masterpieces I think. Loved it very much! |
| Posted by Alison McKenzie on 10/04/09 at 03:52 PM You seem to have encountered a new inspiration, and I LOVE the product of that inspiration, this poem. Greg already commented on my favorite part of the poem in much the same the way I would have - but, yeah, wow. That particular line provokes such strong images for me! |
| Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 10/04/09 at 09:08 PM I admire the progression in numbers of lines and rhyme from one stanza to the next. Is this a "named" form of poetry? I enjoyed the "quirky reel", the orchestral feel to this 'dance', and how the muse is a separate but mighty force, oft times ignored, or so my mind's eye sees this fascinating offering. |

in contradicting passions"
is genius in your passion to fashion the rhythm of your rhyme. I think I've died and gone to heaven. It's Friday night and I can soak in the poetry of friends on a shared Pathetic path of expressing what has impressed our minds. What a joy to find this as #1 and deservedly so! |
