dr_con Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Not what we wantedCon/Jur/d, 4/15/2023 Found the title, unused by itself, while other, better poems, lept-free, languished There are stories of a poetry river, tea, and rice wine, and rice paper, floating from The Head of Divinity although without context it’s always mistranslated And by decree and pleasure they would compose, add to transcribe poems Bamboo and Morning Glory scented breezes, peak offerings, and like it Wasn’t written in heaven thunder, lightning sank the best, clearest Words, and now we fish trying to snag the Golden Carp who swallowed These turning words, the ones you needed, but didn’t want making sense of all things.

Tinker Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Nice Juris, I'm so used to your triangled shaped poems where you begin or end in long lines and the graduate shorter and shorter or the other way around. Neat tercets deliver your message quite nicely. I always love poems written about writing. I can so relate. I especially love this one. ~~Judi 1 Quote ~~ © ~~ Poems by Judi Van Gorder ~~ For permission to use this work you can write to Tinker1111@icloud.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
