This ending did not
Posted on Sun, 31 Oct 2021
This ending did not disappoint. Loved the justice doled out to the two guilty parties and absolutely loved the mausoleum opening to John to enter into that white light. There is a scene at the end of the movie "Ghost" where the guilty friend is...

Perfect Halloween reading..
Posted on Fri, 29 Oct 2021
Perfect Halloween reading...Great suspense, haunting and eerie, yet oddly realistic, by John's reactions to being in spirit and the unwanted voyeurism; I too cannot wait to see what happens next.

Your Ode to these magnificent
Posted on Thu, 23 Sep 2021
Your Ode to these magnificent giants is heartfelt and knowing that their fate is tentative, hanging in the fickle winds of wild fires burning in California, it is also gut wrenching. Your words are a testament to their longevity on this earth and...

I loved this discriptive poem of this bottom feeder fish, and your poetry took me into this deep dark world. Well deserved POD Jenny.

Your poem is very nostalgic

So kind of you to leave these lovely comments, and yes, Perfidia's character is coming into focus as all the characters within this tail soon will. I am not sure how to describe the process for me. It feels like I am walking through the scene as...

All the comments have said what I felt- This is stark in its portrayal of humanity; the correlation of the ecological destruction and the frailty of man, these are days fraught with unprecedented global changes and in much need of helicopter hope...

The Resplendent Quetzal can
Posted on Wed, 25 Aug 2021
The Resplendent Quetzal can not survive being caged, can only live free, as all should. There is so much to interpret here, so much to question. I love the journey through your superstitions, your distrust of gods and their teachings, to follow,...

Such a lovely passage you’ve
Posted on Wed, 25 Aug 2021
Such a lovely passage you’ve woven of the day dispersing into night within a forested background, and ending with a child's sleepy end of day. Beautiful words and visions in this poem make me remember my long ago, childhood secure, drift offs to...
