Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 03/28/17 at 12:15 PM I tend to agree, Johnny. With few exceptions, the shorter the poem, the better I like it. The exception being, Whitman's Out Of The Cradle Endlessly Rocking. Although short cannot be the only criteria, but it must be a good ode, such as this one. |

My comment is longer than your poem; point taken. |
