Lovely July

2025-07-16
Nature always seems to come to the rescue, doesn't it? I try to make a point of really seeing the pond and woods behind my house every day. Hidden in there is consolation, wonder, and a soft assurance that everything is going to be okay.


WORDS

Enjoying the end-rhymes interspersed throughout the poem. Analogy of the white-space in contrast to the words on the page and the comparison of the poet to a jeweler, as craftsman, is effective and holds your poem together to the end.


POETRY DISPLACEMENT

2025-07-16
I love the cadence and rhyme of ''There's no rewind on a poetry mind.'' Seems to me you still have one--a poetry mind, that is.


Frames

Impressive vignette. Progresses rapidly down the page, drawing the reader into the actions and observations of two creative people and their reaction to one another and to their craft.


In a Desolate Landscape

Compelling images, especially ''a lone sharp star.''


Ankle Deep

2025-07-16
Skillfully composed. Thoughtful and throught-provoking. Sometimes it's difficult when someone seems to want you to do something about their sadness.


Peace In The Rain

Skilled structuring. Nice rhyme scheme. I'm partial to rainy days, so always gravitate to poems about it. Nice work.
