This is in response to Melissa Lundeen's poetic reply to my poem "A Treasure Found" posted on July 15, 2011. Inspired by a recollection of William Wordsworth's "Lines Written on Tintern Abbey", which, I happened to read again, after a gap of more than two decades. The woman I love now cannot be named...for that is how her beauty and loveliness lie...being far, far away from the maddening crowd...to borrow a line from Thomas Hardy. Smiles...
