Robert,
The act of constructing as metaphor for composing a poem, when brought with your pen is woven together with a golden thread.
Sometimes, once I've grasped and embraced your always inviting themes, I just settle in and admire your way with expression, on a 2nd read. It's often a peaceful moment, indeed. katy xox.
a conceptual poem about orphan ideas and elusive concepts harnessed into the "indelible spirit of a poem." indelible, indeed, poems like these. my work (marketing communications, creativity) has always been the realm of the idea, so I am especially drawn to this. thanks
I often read your poetry at the end of one of my shifts, and then read it again the next day for a treat and then reply. This one I could hear your voice saying it, as I read it. Delightful snack for a day of thoughts :-) Thank you.
When I read your poetry, I am there. I ride the waves of your phenomenal ideas. Sometimes, I don't totally understand. But that's a good thing because you make me think deep into your phrases. This poem is one of the best I have enjoyed. I would like to carry it around in my pocket.
"They are like orphans who inherit the world of totality." Yes, poems are exactly like this, and your saying so tells us how poetry is accepting a mantle of modern responsibility. This work hurries it along. Thank you. - Bill

Very philosophical and cerebral work! EXCELLENT perceptions, Jude!
Like a breeze blowing across the strings of the spirit and soul, this resonates with a mystical comprehension and collects like a weather-system into meaning. It feels like a tuning fork to me... or perhaps I do in response to it!!?? Don't YOU ever take a break, Jude. Somehow I feel like you have been producing your very best stuff of late - bursting with what you call "verve", and emotional intelligence. Very muscular. Sourced from an energy that blows to and from where?! Who knows!! This is a keeper - but I promise not to be a stealer, even though I would love to filch it for my folder!! :))) LOL Kate xx

Yepper! You captured it well. I liked this one a lot Robert.
"They are like students desiring to be taught
And like dreams desiring to be woken"
Being a teacher, I love these verses and the whole poem speaks to me.
Thank you, Jude. Love and peace. Regis
My students have been very lazy lately. Awesome write Robert.

You hve really captured the feelings of what we do when we write them.
My last few poems having been about poets,make this even more exciting to me. It not only confirms my thinking, but says it
better than I or anyone else could;-) Splendid poem!
I always wonder where they come from. I like the leaves on the wind thing..it really hit a note with me. Suddenly during a moment of emptying the mind, a poem fills. This is beautiful, Robert and sings to the soul of every poet. Excellent!
Take care,
