Posted by Rob Littler on 01/27/12 at 05:23 PM ...and it is, as always, the thunder that happens first...then the light...only that is not what I want my memory to record...nor mine own heart to know. Thanks for reminding me of that with your poem! |

Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 01/28/12 at 04:57 AM I'm with Gabriel. That last stanza really delivers with descriptive power, sensory delights, thoughtful conclusions. |
Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 02/13/12 at 01:54 PM George, you are something else. This poem is something else. Your poems always hit the spot. The spot which is most difficult to hit. And you always hit it square, which is rare. This is another of yours which zooms in and does what all good poems do which become enmeshed with the fabric of the ones who are reading. |
