the early hours		2020-05-07 Nicely done. You nailed Doris Day.
Puttering Around the Kitchen at 3.56 am		2020-05-07 This is a fine example of a good poem with a mundane subject. What's described is far less important than the artistry of the description. Why don't you reuse your spoons?
My walk down Warren Street		2020-05-06 Very nice.
day by day		2020-05-05 Good idea. I wish you well. It'd be interesting hear what Colt would say. It seemed like the big world didn't mean that much to him.
beginning now		2020-05-04 It will be interesting to see which changes are lasting, especially after the vaccine arrives.
The Crimson Finch		2020-05-04 Delicate and lovely.
Words		2020-05-04 True!
Sweet Sounds		2020-05-04 Love the final stanza.
Nocturne		2020-05-02 It's good poem for twenty-two. It shows promise (which has been borne out).

in a poetry slam		2020-04-29 First class!

Owlgate		2020-04-27 Well said!
once in love		2020-04-27 Yeah, that happens. After a while, it ceases to matter.
the lady who speaks french		2020-04-27 Now, this is some fine writing. There's beautiful music here.
In a Shop Called Josephine Miles		2020-04-27 Still good.
From the French		2020-04-27 Well done!
Ten minutes to Tokyo		2020-04-23 Very nice.
Ramblings 505		2020-04-23 True enough. There also often is an undercurrent of envy.
My Inner Canon Lawyer Looks Askance at the Season of Spring		2020-04-22 Yes, to the dour barrister, exuberance is subversive.
Three Short Takes		2020-04-21 Coherent thought. That's a pretty bold departure.
In the Background		2020-04-19 This is excellent, Tom, quietly powerful.
what the poem means		2020-04-19 A very nice tribute. I liked it a lot. Your professor reminds me of a fine old geezer I had for "Brit Lit."
another year, another song		2020-04-14 I love it!
just saying		2020-04-14 Since I'm the guy you squeeze your cart past as I'm setting out toilet paper and wet wipes, I can't afford to think about contagion, and I don't. My wife and most of my kids are willing to take their chances with me, but one daughter won't let me into her house, won't come over, and won't let me see my granddaughter. That's what you're supposed to do, I know, but it hurts.
love for small things		2020-04-13 So many tangible sensations are here. I'm tempted to call this poem "chewy." I like it.
I Miss Most The Touching		2020-04-10 Agreed.
side by side		2020-04-09 I disagree.
breathless		2020-04-08 True!
Dad was born		2020-04-08 I love those pictures. I have one of my son, shot as we all were supposed to be having fun, with that look.
My Garden Lives		2020-04-08 Very nice, Joe. Nature goes about its business, despite our troubles. We'll have our spring, too, at some point.
Ramblings 502		2020-04-07 It does seem a bit early for such a judgment.
