| Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 01/21/08 at 08:47 PM Excellent use of the maritime analogy to convey love George. Glad I had a chance to read this truly inspirational poem. It's all great, but I especially enjoyed this stanza: your heart as star to guide your thighs as port – hold tight my love ride high with me on the storm tossed sea

| Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 01/22/13 at 12:43 PM it is incredible what love will do to the quill and the heart of one, love which lends its fodder for such writing as this. so blissful to read this work which is no less than art which should be hanging in some museum, that is, if museums know what is good for them. |
