Continental Light I watched the clock tick into some tomorrow when only hours ago I read of some poet that had made his history writing some thing, supposedly, better than the rest of you. It was almost as good as yours. Free verse then Pulitzer, and an honor prizes those I do not know. I know you. I know the worthy. You, who follow a light’s line and mark step cross stand way across boundaries others will never know. Polite, those who court me when I appreciate their hope; albeit perhaps false be I know these, their challenges when they say…. you’ve done better than this! Any poet who believes they are….well, s/he lives in you, my our their reader. Let me be yours, my, our continental poet. © Karilea Rilling Jungel June 26, 2006 |

certainly a poem to ponder over, when so much is based on not what you know, but who you know, or who knows you. a poet who cares |

This one will stay with me, and in my moments of quiet, I will meditate on this writing. I think of the primary reason I write when I can find the time to do so...and that reason is that I NEED to write for me. Patricia |

I loved all the corners in this wandering through an excellent and very alive mind. I have saved it in my Sunshine folder, firstly because I want it, and secondly to ponder the last 3 stanzas offline, when I can do so at my leisure. - Owl |

I am here pondering your poetic considerations. Probably in poetry, even though we might express our innermost emotions, everything has already been said, in one way or another, but whenever we succeed in "charging our creations" with our personal essence, then they are truly original and worthy. And when we follow our inner voice and transmit something to the reader, when there is communication then we fulfill ourselves. Thank you, dear Karilea Sunshine, for sharing your beauty with us. Love, Margherita ![]() |
