| Posted by Bruce W Niedt on 10/27/06 at 09:19 PM I know we've spoken about "platonic affairs" in the past, and this captures the essence of it perfectly: the affection, the conflicting emotions, the wistfulness - well-done! d:-) |
| Posted by Kathleen Wilson on 10/29/06 at 04:55 AM This poem and emotion contained in the moments herin-- are definitely self-contained yet ready to spill beyond the hourglass, if such becomes possible-- a passionate undertone, a creative edge to be leaped from into... who knows what promsising future delight? |
| Posted by Gabriel Ricard on 10/30/06 at 04:41 PM Interesting piece, especially with the way you chose to open each stanza. It's almost like you're dropping us in after the first couple of words have already passed.
Sorry if that doesn't make any freaking sense, but I do like it, all the same. |
| Posted by Maureen Glaude on 11/03/06 at 12:28 AM I think I saw some Cinderellas last evening. This was always a fav. of mine, very sweet, representing that elusive almost. |

the more she opens for me
a nice kind of crazy"
Having been in a relationship for decades with one that can keep you out as oft as let you in I especially felt this line. I like the flow of this poem and there is the hint that Cinderella will someday, someway let her Charmer in. Nice work. smh :) |
