Being Loved

Thoughts

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I spent yet another night on call in the hospital and thank GOD it was quiet for a change. In a pensive mood i lay down to sleep and then got up to pen my thoughts just before i dozed off again.

Lady Beatrice's Shoelessness

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This poem woke me up early this morning (3am or so); an imagining of Dante and Beatrice sharing a private, adolescent moment.

At Lady Beatrice's Refusal Of Advice

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I believe Dante's promise to Beatrice, on her deathbed, to write of her as no woman had ever been written of before, was a final reiteration, rather than its original presentation.  From my own experience of adolescent love, decades ago, I am led to believe that the first offer of the promise had to occur in their adolescence, and in their more casual encounters.
