Hey Ali,

I really wish you hadn't removed the poem you had posted here under your wife's painting. I had worked for two weeks with a critique even though I seldom come to this forum. I'm a dyed-in-the-wool R&M kind of guy but "Ragnarok" was not only an interesting piece but also a very good ancient history lesson.

I just dumped my critique! Oh well, my first thoughts on seeing the painting was that of an immense scaled dragon peering at the world through one eye.

I enjoyed your poem while it was up. Thanks for your insight and for sharing.

Larry

When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

Hi Larry,
I appreciate your own effort of writing a critique and realize that things are moving slowly on this site. But jeepers, after some twenty days of no-comments on my free-verse I had to assume that it had failed to pass muster. The fact is, from time to time I write horrible garbage that I then throw against the wall just to see what will stick. I'm glad you liked my verses while they were up. Most certainly, Lynda will be tickled at your interpretation of her painting. The Sun-devouring dragon works for me, indeed. Thank you, Larry. Ali and Lynda
