CLIMB TO GLORY (Poetry) - 11/12/2008 9:45:00 PM
Great poem, so inspirational- it reminds me of a homily my favorite priest gave one time about the spiritual life- he said "don't hug the mountain, but let go and believe," which I thought was a beautiful image- your poem had the same effect. Thanks for sharing this.- Michelle

being able to get through the day as you describe would be worthwhile for all to heed. We need to make our own happiness day by day and minute by minute. Good uplifting write here.

Seeds (Poetry) - 4/30/2008 1:53:13 PM
I've a comment, and then a suggestion.
This poem has got some really good ideas in it. But the surprising one--and I think it's accidental is this part:
" will fix my words within a setting
Which seems good and right;
And in this can be seen the poet's sole charge."
I am imagining a ring setting-- like "I need a new settings on my ring because one of the prongs is broken, and my diamond fell out..." (true story-- to many people)... any way, reading it like that, I went back and re-read the entire poem in that light. Certain words fit perfectly (in that setting)-- and I think you can re-render it just so-- so that it can have two meanings (that of jewels, and that of words). And I'd love-love a word play at the end with that "sole charge"-- like the heart of a diamond has a soul, and according to mythical legends, a charge... Something to think about.
What do you think? --Charlie
REAL (Poetry) - 4/30/2008 12:44:52 PM
Well written with much inner, deep thoughts, leaving one to ponder over expectations yet to be claimed and perhaps conquered, well done...
Be always safe,

The Journey (Poetry) - 4/24/2008 3:50:15 PM
Such determination--even on a blade's edge-- walking towards light... I think that's faith... well-penned sentiments. --Charlie
It Occurs To Me (Poetry) - 4/14/2008 6:56:29 AM
Parallelity... I live a life parallel to my own... in harmonic movements, we go... me trudging through life... and me just dreaming... it works. --Charlie
Searching Heart (Poetry) - 4/10/2008 8:52:26 PM
Beautiful-the search can be so bittersweet, very nice poem.
Searching Heart (Poetry) - 4/10/2008 8:07:42 PM
I smile.
My heart is filled by this,
When upon my solitary path
I find you
At times like this......
Your words rang raw and true on this eccentric loner of a woman who loves to dream and forever going down the wrong solitary path.....beautifully done, thank you - Deborah
