Posted by Glenn Currier on 10/31/11 at 04:35 PM The next time I see Venus and that smiling slice of light I will have a sour taste in my mouth and have an urge to go in and make lemonade. I love the lesson in Greek mythology too. This is delightful, George. |
Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 11/01/11 at 04:14 AM "drop of lemon juice" - a unique visual for me. This reads smooth as silk, George, and I'm a sucker for a good story with your special slant. |
Posted by Ken Harnisch on 11/01/11 at 12:33 PM love the lemony allusions in this, George. So wistfully romantic throughout! |

Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 11/06/11 at 08:12 PM Well penned, constructive reminder of Roman mythology, that nicely empowers today's lovers. |

Posted by Leslye Writer on 11/09/11 at 12:03 PM Quiet, softly informative, deliciously romantic, smart and round like that moon when it is full. Touches astronomy, the history of the gods, standing and looking up and love. Wonderful. |
Posted by Leslye Writer on 11/09/11 at 12:29 PM Quiet like night, gently informative, smart, softly romantic, references the gods and astronomy, and love. Delicious! |

Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 04/02/12 at 01:19 PM it replenishes the soul to read this, George. the way you paint this scene, is so in keeping with the Romantics, and I suspect, my friend, that you may have been Keats or Shelley or Byron or other such great in a lifetime previous to this. |
