~ Poem the 1st Chap. Inspired Bye ~ Part #8
~ "This is very well written and the concrete aspect of it is amazing. But damn it's a long one.
I don't mind reading long works but with the added aspect of the shapes it gave me a
headache concentrating so hard. And your AN is just as long as the poem itself,
you look desperate to win a trophy with it, but I'll say one
thing, it gets a lot of exposure that way." .. Scott ~

~ JWGoethe: Oh, the short attention span of so many. Poetry is meant to be expansive,
to be epic, to sing unrestrained, and to encompass all. I liked this very much. Began much like
a prayer, fervent, joyous, and celebratory of the wonders of a deeply personal relationship with
God (one which I, however, do not share). Still, touching in it's voice, this poem effected me.
Love the narrative details, the child's pool, the warm moments of personal joy,
the morning coffee. Gave it a contemporary and honest feel, made it clear
that this was a self reflective, and at the same time, universal tale.
Bravo, and so well done. I am very impressed" ... . ~
