Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 02/12/12 at 02:10 PM understatement is saying that I merely love this poem. this poem is one which makes me want to rust along with the poet on the pier, desire nothing less than to drown simultaneously along. |

Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 04/12/12 at 05:10 PM Exquisite rhyming scheme in this lament that I somehow missed the first time around. I pray for buoys and strong castle walls. |
Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 04/19/12 at 05:03 PM Serious and yet playful at the same time. I know I read this before...and rated it, but for some reason my comment didn't stick. Nice work Jill! |
