Hi Ron, excuse me for a moment.
Hi Don... >>I've indulged your minute, and found your views informative. Thank you; most kind, too. >>I suspect you enjoy nature as-is more than nature as-contrived. I suppose I do. I live in a hamlet of sixteen cottages and hate towns. I'm a country bumpkin, really. >>There is something to say about smelling flowers in the field being better than from a perfume bottle. 100% agree on that one! >>Then again, there is the beauty of women wearing perfume. Ah! But I prefer their natural perfume than one from a musk deer! (I'm sure there's a poem in here somewhere!) Cheers, Don. James. |

Hi Ron. :sun:
I missed the piece when you first posted! :oops: I enjoyed the visualization of how a poet creates their masterpieces. :cloud9: I've got a few suggestions for you to ponder below. We should make this an exercise - write about 'how to write'! :grinning: Well done! ~Cleo :pharoah: Once a stanza now be writ let's locate das and dums. Slash and dash a form, be it. When filled it sings Rhyme?, it must, if j g d's. A scheme be now assigned. Vow, or I shall be maligned. Yore's the time I our taste today will fade. Milton, make this boat to float Don't rain on my parade. Windmills may be ready ploys for questers just like me. You may, or not, agree. ·······  ·······"It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step into the Road, and if you don't keep your feet, there is no knowing where you might be swept off to." ~ J.R.R Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings

Hi Ron,
Congratulations on a well-deserved award!! Like Cleo, I missed this and I'm sorry I did. It's great! I've read through the comments but your discussion is over my head! LOL I applaud your determination to preserve the poetry style of yore. I enjoy it and have even tried to write some myself but I usually get "oh you don't want to do that, it sounds so old". though I still do it from time to time.  Cathy |
