There is a tone to this poem
There is a tone to this poem that gives it a sense of being an ancient inscription that has lasted through the ages; just as the beauty of this poem, going forward, will also last for ages. If I were teaching a course on poetry, this poem would be on my syllabus: I think every aspiring poet, and even a well experienced poet, can learn a lot from this poem. Frankly, I think thiis is one of the best poems ever posted on postpoems. It will be a poem I revisit.
