SORROW Virginia Salter sorrow falls like frost-bitten daisy petals upon my cheeks clinging to salty tears wrapping up the years in sadness of profound degree what is to be with me? what will be the words that will lift me that will cling to me with a gladness that transcends all that life and death would give then reaches reaches for the seeds that wriggle into enriched soil prepared for growth readied for beauty bringing a sprout to rise © November 15, 2000 |

SEA, You are very sweet to say such a thing, but if we all wrote the same, it would be dull, lifeless, without freshness or imagination. You are doing very well with haiku. What others styles have you tried? I don't do a lot of 'form' poetry, mainly because the parameters are often daunting. V. |

VAS~ I have no idea, I'm learning as I go, I never realized the different types of poetry had names and rules.....I just have always wrote from my heart. So, I dunno  Guess I'll keep learning. I like that -SEA |

VAS~ Sometimes sorrow is so delicately spun - I believe this piece has that delicacy~ ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

I have to agree with Marge...this poem is very delicately predicting hope over sorrow ... one of the main reasons for poetry is to express these heartfelt thoughts.....welcome to Passions....ethome.... |

Thank you all!!! It's been so much fun already, being here. In fact, I've had to force myself away to get at least a tiny amount of my 'chores' completed. This certainly is an active, talented group of poets! |
