patriciajj commented on: The Totality of You by patriciajj 2 years 32 weeks* ago* I didn't think anything could: I didn't think anything could make me smile today, but I was wrong. Your appreciation and discernment of poetry in general, not just mine, gives your comments great value, so just having you stop by for another read is a massive honor. It's people like you who bring light and positive energy into the world who convince us it's still beautiful and it's good that we're still in it. My heartfelt gratitude. God bless you.

Starward commented on: The Totality of You by patriciajj 2 years 32 weeks* ago* Like your other poems, and: Like your other poems, and like all the great poems in literature (whether Eastern or Western) this poem does not disclose all of its perspectives on the first reading. It evolves on subsequent readings---because it is a living poem, rather than a verbal relic. This is what separates your work from the fluff and lint that is so prevalent on internet poetry sites. This sense of the poem---of your poems---as living, vital, and even vivacious. Earlier today, I read an essay which began with the rhetorical question---why does Wallace Stevens' early poems still engage us, more than a century after he first published them? The same question will someday be applied to your poetry; and the same answer will be returned: because, the best of poems achieve a kind of life among us, as yours definitely do. [ go to comment ]

lyrycsyntyme commented on: God Saw It by owlcrkbrg 2 years 33 weeks* ago* Fine and powerful words.: Fine and powerful words. Knocked my socks off with your closing words. Those final lines draw the mind's eye down to the sharpest of focus. The smallest of sensations. The things we are letting slip away. This is one of the best poems I've read in a really long time. Suspect it will stick with me a long while. [ go to comment ]
