| Posted by Elizabeth Jill on 04/19/07 at 12:25 AM Twirling in your poem, Kath. She will be honored... it is alive with ecstacy!
brugmansia is a new word for me, as are some other quite flithet-marvelongs in this schmoem. :) |
| Posted by Steven Kenworthy on 04/19/07 at 12:43 AM this entire poem felt like a dance. come to think of it...this entire poem dances with some fancy words (complicated moves) and some more simple vocab to tie the tough to the common (the easy moves) to makeup one encore performance. now, this is the kind of poem that separates poetry from "poetry". the lines, "the mystery and excellence of hands connected to arms" really caught me. best one of the bunch in my opinion...i love the grace. the fluid imagery...everything about this poem grooves. a slight break (but not too much) from your recent scientific/astral-based works. as always, tres bien kw...tres bien. |

always in a state of graceful intellectualism. |
| Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 04/19/07 at 04:23 AM I see this marvelous dancer twirling about the universe and I am mesmerized by the impossible materializing in her music and movements. What a lovely tribute! |

| Posted by JD Clay on 04/22/07 at 03:56 PM This is like an ethereal travelogue bursting with energy that touches down ever-so-lightly!
Your vernacular a poetic soup. Bravo!!! |
| Posted by Sarah Graves on 04/23/07 at 11:37 PM I really like how you describe her moves, in such a cosmic way. I mean, when someone's dancing is out of this world, it must be something special. Thanks for sharing! :) |
