“In Cogne, happiness is measured not in gold, amica, but in that which warms the heart and delights the senses. Per favore… enjoy, remember cold nights, fine food, and cioccolati hand-made for you by eternal friends.”
Yup that just about sums up happiness..well done Kevin you really have the perfect surname all of your work stems from you wondrous heart/Hart...bravo!

I'm sorry, but I don't "get" it. Or maybe I do. Are you implying that the chololate is not sold but given? Strange, if that is the case. Or maybe I am just not sensitive enough to understand.

oh, yes. this is right. you took me back a ways, to days spent on skateboards, boombox in hand with a bad brains tape glued in the tape deck. the roir album was the soundtrack to my youth in them days, with every sunday afternoon spent at cbgb's hardcore matinees. now i'm older,though not much wiser, and the cold thought hits me that our gods are dying off. joey and johnny, wendy o., and most of all, the great joe strummer. sometimes i wonder if those years of my youth were wasted; then i read something like this, and i realize i was part of something bigger than myself, and i wasted nothing.
thank you for this poem.

Funny how I clicked on this. I didn't think you were actually going to repost! (smile!) But I can't take credit for anything my dear Brother. It's the tried and true networking of being parts of various poetry groups, seminars, and readings both past and present that showed me how to pick a poem apart, and see it as a moving picture show. All I shared was an interpretation of what I saw in this, and YOU dear friend are the one who had the foresight to re-create something I only appreciated.
Thanks just the same for the kudos, I appreciate you and all the others here in this equal-opportunity Authors Den. (Don't you wish everybody was as accepting as we all seem to be my friend?)

Karina At Eighteen (Poetry) - 1/10/2006 3:48:27 PM
You make the reader sift hard for the meaning, whether it is intentional or just lack for descriptive sapphic words. The giveaway that this is a sapphic poem is first this line, "Artificial progression into a woman’s world" and this line "Attractive opposites, polarity reversed." In any case, I love this poem, because it has a dynamic sapphic thrust to it, why I suppose you repeated a few lines. Nice meeting Karina At Eighteen, Kevin.

Have not the slightest idea what "form" this poem is, if, indeed it IS a classic form. Matters not to me anyway, it is the poem that matters and this poem matters. The repeating of certain lines within the structure of it is fasinating and eerily spellbinding. Oh, I almost forgot. I liked it.

lol- that last line made me laugh- you are right, the bees are busy for many reasons, and their sting can sometimes heal people, go figure!
Bees (Poetry) - 8/16/2005 2:45:40 AM
This poem buzzes! A fantastic descriptive write with a lovely little sting in the tail. Great work!

Oh the bees they DO be buzzin' in places where we gather. . . like roses and thorns, even metaphorically, bees must BE for us to enjoy the honey in our lives.
All things have purpose, your poem says this very distinctly.
blessin's Kevin,

Beef Stew (Poetry) - 7/26/2005 4:05:38 PM
what a wonderful recipe for life...put the ingredients together, invite in the world, and see what simmers in the pot...you wrote a magical poem here kevin
Beef Stew (Poetry) - 7/26/2005 3:46:53 PM
Intriguing write. We've got to wonder about those busy friends and the going overboard, faded pictures and loneliness and what's really needed to fill us up. Now I'm hungry. :-)
Morning Pleasure (Poetry) - 7/6/2005 8:38:24 AM
Well done, Kevin....I should write one on a woman's shave(:!

Of the simplest things are cut a poem.

well done
Jack Kerouac and Me (Poetry) - 5/26/2005 5:33:34 AM
Kevin, how succinctly you've captured the torment, the mania, the grief, the fear, the heartrending beauty of being a literary artist. No doubt Kerouac would have enjoyed you as a travel companion; indeed, you are one.
Slow Road (Poetry) - 5/22/2005 5:33:24 PM
the poetry highway curves and climbs depending on how well we accelerate upon it as we seek its destination ...
intriguing imagery ...
Slow Road (Poetry) - 5/21/2005 9:48:28 PM
Some very interesting images. Enjoyed.

What a slow, delightful tease! Love the double innuendo. Delicious...
Shopping (Poetry) - 5/6/2005 8:50:42 PM
Darlin'...where DO you shop for groceries. I need to pay more attention over the bananas.
Passionate...

sobering imagery ...
Merlot (Poetry) - 3/22/2005 11:03:30 AM
i loved this...i quit drinking a few years ago (a millenium) but i still miss that feeling that came with just the perfect buzz
Merlot (Poetry) - 3/22/2005 8:30:20 AM
Now thats the spirit! I come from a winery family, so this rests easy on the palatte. Great stuff, Kevin...
Road (Poetry) - 3/22/2005 8:18:55 AM
Masterfully written. If we could look a little closer, we could see their shadows walking...
Road (Poetry) - 3/17/2005 5:08:08 AM
This one puts the old gray matter to work. Very good imagery. Excellent, actually.
Road (Poetry) - 3/16/2005 1:59:21 PM
this is so well written that it shocked me, coming with such a simple title, i was so pleasantly surprised
Road (Poetry) - 3/16/2005 8:54:04 AM
WoW! Kevin! This is awesome! (And I don't hand out compliments mildly.) I especially like the parallel in your form that echos the metaphor of journey. Also, the reiteration of your list and your correction of road to path shows a new maturity in your work. Bravo!!
Road (Poetry) - 3/16/2005 7:11:32 AM
enjoyed the read

Okay I will reread this but I think that I understand what you are saying. Each generation has its own code.
Where Did It Go? (Poetry) - 2/3/2005 2:59:55 PM
damn right!!!!!
excellent piece one for the boards!!!
take care
Where Did It Go? (Poetry) - 1/29/2005 7:50:22 PM
The question of fairness in the last stanza sums up the piece. No one has the right to judge another, but few things, if any, are fair.
Where Did It Go? (Poetry) - 1/29/2005 6:19:14 PM
I agree that there is none that should judge but they do without realizing what it does.
Where Did It Go? (Poetry) - 1/29/2005 5:22:57 PM
