Roux, where are you? quote: I have looked for you, Joseph Roux, you are quoted very well, but a history I am searching, I cannot seem to find your tale. It seems you lived to fifty-two. Your quotes have stood the test of time, but a point I would like to disagree, yet cannot find more to know ~ you seem somewhat a mystery. I want to know the man who would dress his poetry in some Sunday clothes, some pretty and best, for I read poets every day, and it seems to me that they might fail your test. For the poets who would skin the cat, strip all bare, lay emotion true well, then, their poetry would not do ~ yet, it’s their truth, through and through. Still, we read with some glee beautifully dressed poetry of those who would envision your sight… and then await those poets who would unveil the night. |

Going save this for sure. Guess mine isn't the best dressed poetry! Have to change its clothes before long to please an audience! Buttons |

I'd have to disagree with him, too....but then, again, I don't know anything about him either....and you know poets....they speak their truths....but as we grow, our truths often grow right along with us. ....jo |

Well sissie...you sent me on a search and I found lots of quotes, but no biography. There must be something somewhere. Thanks for stimulating my curiosity. |

I haven't yet found anything new on this poet myself, Martie...which makes him all the more intriguing. If anyone can answer the question as to this priest who had a lot to be remembered for, I would sure like to hear from them. Thank you ALL for reading! |
