Most succinct, you followed one thread of thought all the way through the poem, excellent! My only suggestion is that you single space the stanzas, as that would only add to its cogency. I loved it.

A fine meditation upon one mystical moment. Well done!


The Fire

2009-10-12
Brilliant, absolutely brilliant write, poignant in the extreme--I have so much emotion for you! It is difficult to seperate the poem form the actually terrible incident which you portray so well. (How are you now, and how is your family and town?) superb write.


I Mean Nothing.

2009-10-12
Nicely done, I do understand the feeling completely...apparently the person it is written about is blind in one eye and cannot see out of the other one.... fine write...


The Rose

2009-10-12
Very interesting and very different, you have a most astute poetic mind for one so young... you do have "the knack" which cannot be taught!
