patriciajj commented on: Jake's Poem Repair by owlcrkbrg 2 years 20 weeks* ago* Ah, the Poet is a comedian.: Ah, the Poet is a comedian. The best of both worlds. This had me smiling, and that's no small gift after a stressful day. Well, this is one poem that needs no repair—delivering satire, wit and therapy in one graceful swoop. Well done! [ go to comment ]
patriciajj commented on: When Mountains Erupt by lyrycsyntyme 2 years 20 weeks* ago* "and i've been learning so: "and i've been learning so breathe fire fill the atmosphere scourge the landscape melt away illusions that anything lasts," So much gripping emotion tumbles through this metaphorical triumph that I just want to applaud rather than analyze. The effect speaks for itself, but I still need to express my admiration for the stylistic impact, the brilliant use of sensory words and the deft execution of imagery. An absorbing creation.

J9th commented on: One last Caress by Rashbar 2 years 20 weeks* ago* This is beautiful and well: This is a beautiful and well organized love poem. I am particularly impressed with the line describing the sun as sherbet bright: wow!, what a brilliant comparison. I have been enjoying sherbet for over half a century, and have never thought of it as a source of poetic description--and I feel like a silly fool for missing that, So I applaud your poem for its verbal excellence and emotional candor.

J9th commented on: Where I am From by nancylangley 2 years 20 weeks* ago* Reading this poem again, I: Reading this poem again, I find that---like the best poems that interest me---it loses nothing on second reading but actually gains, because it requires that I bring more (of either life's experience, or life's questions) to it. That is an effect that, in my own opinion, only the finest poems can produce; and, among them, this poem. I applaud your accomplishment. [ go to comment ]
bigluv21 commented on: Where I am From by nancylangley 2 years 21 weeks* ago* Deep. Beautifully Deep. : Deep. Beautifully Deep. I don't know about anyone else, but I caught it emotionally as well. It may have been a while but you still got it. [ go to comment ]
grimfate commented on: Last Cry by mysterypoet 2 years 21 weeks* ago* Words have great power: Incredible, you have a way of putting the reader right there with you. The twist you imply on 'the last laugh' is bitter sweet, a triumph of the illumination of the shadows of the lie and the sadness at the truth laid bare. [ go to comment ]

J9th commented on: From A Dogs Perspective. by sweetwater 2 years 21 weeks* ago* So very poignant, and: So very poignant, and effectively eloquent. In the hands of a lesser artist, or a poseur, it would fail. But your highly capable skill makes it work, and work very efficiently. [ go to comment ]
