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,...

Well constructed poem Jenny. The moon’s influence poetically described in the phase of the July Buck Moon named by the Algonquin Tribe for the new antlers that Buck's grow during this season. I enjoyed how you begin with the Buck changing in the...

WOW! I would love to see this on a stage, in fact that is how I viewed it as I read it- Great dialogue, fast paced and humorous . Believable exchange between father and daughter and I loved the caustic attitude to the waitress and the asides...
