I so appreciate your words and SO realize h...Mike,<br /><br />I so appreciate your words and SO realize how uneducated I am when it comes to the terms you are using...<br />I am excited to study them and learn.<br /><br />When I wrote this...I decided to wait an hour or two before I posted it...I had read your poem 'Change' and you mentioned how you thought it showed that you rushed a little, and I realized most likely my biggest down-fall is impatience...I write, post and seldom go back to look again. So this time (these words came to me as I was finishing up the pies and washing the floor), so I finished up my cleaning, then re-read it...and realized that something about the last verse sounded stilted and forced,and I close my eyes and simply searched for words and rhythm that best portrays the thought, and this was the best I could come up with. I find the end of a poem my most challenging part...<br />I never think about the rhyming patterns until I am writing...and I've maybe never seriously looked at 'stretching' but I promise i will.<br /><br />Thank-you again.Janet Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10126248666972072628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4504381264366497570.post-7439344723662181832011-08-28T01:25:43.591-04:002011-08-28T01:25:43.591-04:00Lovely poem and an interesting form. I'm fasci...Lovely poem and an interesting form. I'm fascinated with the rhyme scheme and the change from iambic tetrameter in the first and third lines of the third stanza. Is it intentional? It gives an extra, subliminal emphasis to the stanza. Is there a special feeling for you there? It may be something I'd like to explore in my writing. It is very effective.Mike Patrickhttp://thepoetsquill.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4504381264366497570.post-47640675921478405742011-08-27T19:41:10.398-04:002011-08-27T19:41:10.398-04:00vanyieck~
