| Posted by Trisha De Gracia on 10/13/07 at 05:55 AM You could keep an english teacher talking all day about assonance and alliteration! I love the language here too, and the rhythm really accentuates it. Good plan, centering the poem like you did. It makes it feel much stronger than if you had kept it all left. |

| Posted by Glenn Currier on 10/15/07 at 05:14 AM You give October a whole new meaning... I can't wait for the next two weeks the the liquid delights I will find there... trailing your poem behind me on a newly braided autumn thread. Lovely poem, Kristina. |
