Miriam - You have created a melancholy and thoughtful tone of memory and longing as you meditate on the past and connect with the future. Though you write of the dead, it is life that comes forth. - David

A powerful testimony against the kind of injustice women still suffer in the world and an exceptional example of modern womanist literature.
Aberjhani
Stoning Helen (Poetry) - 9/1/2006 9:44:37 PM
a stark and vivid account of injustice imposed upon women ...
Stoning Helen (Poetry) - 8/31/2006 6:05:56 PM
Oh, boy. Don't get me started as this poem so easily could get me started on a tirade. You've said a galaxy of truth skillfully and concisely. Power impregnates your words here. ~~Nordette

We feel the sad brutality of the situation. But it will always be so for any parent who unjustly loses their chidren.

This is the very reason some women try harder. It's the vile part of living that is archaic and never changes. It is why we are the Meek. Bless you Miriam. This pen goes well with "Well behaved women rarely make history."

"you create your own private hell for all to see"
What a heartrending epitaph born of bad choices!
Your respect and love for this person was profound and also the anger you battled with and the helplessness you felt as you watched him wither away pierced my heart like a sword.
I am so sorry for the loss of your friend and can only hope that in his passing the Truth was found and embraced tightly.

Togetherness in reminiscence, "Bonaventure" depicts through its rich imagery and hearty colors. A poetic painting of beauty and love.
Keep posting, Poet!

Impressive imagery in this closing:
"Symbiotic drums would
Beat. You would be
Alive! Alive!"
I enjoyed the reading of "Words For My Son".

I've heard about your work with women from Aberjhani, but he did not tell me you are also an exceptional poet. Outstanding, beautiful work. It will stick with me. ~~Nordette
Bonaventure (Poetry) - 3/4/2006 9:23:05 AM
Like some of the more stunning passages of Marcel Proust, this poem demonstrates the power of memory to infuse the present with the full intense, emotional, and sacred energies of the past. The imagery is beautifully haunting and soul of the poet, as it shines through these lines, enchantingly luminous.

Bonaventure (Poetry) - 3/3/2006 9:47:15 PM

Miriam,
You are a southern woman . The images here remind me so much of my home in Savannah. My father is buried in Bonaventure right near the river. Your memories are part of my past too and your words are pure animated colors of passion. Keep writing. I'll read your poetry Miriam.
Peace!

I could wish too.
Beautiful poem.
