I don’t have the recall
To remember historical events,
I don’t know Greek myths,
Or the origin of Lent,
I cannot discuss with you
In much detail
The context of your poem;
Mostly
I study the protagonist
To see if I know him.

Steve---I agree with Silver, a clever poem. Neat, like a glass of chablis while looking into the eyes of the one you love. Richard LP

Thank you, Richard, I appreciate your comment :) I caught myself wishing that I could write at greater length earlier on. I want to learn to develop my ideas into a story, or something with some length to it, so a comment on one of my shorter poems has staved off a crisis in confidence! Thank you!
