Charles Baudelaire

His start was art
That fell apart

  To poetry he turned
  'Normalcy' ~ spurned

CayCay Jennings Date: 2/9/2022 11:27:00 AM I love your little gems, they are all unique and unexpected delights. I can't help but wonder the ways of your brain that it gives us so many brevity poems to enjoy. I got your message and wrote back a very long sharing that I edited and edited so that it wasn't a novel! But, cussing words, the whole thing disappeared for no reason I can forgive - mean 'ole computer stole Your message. I'll be honest, it may take me awhile to answer, because it just might. CayCay Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 2/9/2022 11:57:00 AM CayCay, I'm so sorry to hear of the mysterious disappearance of your message to me. Isn't it awful when all that effort just goes up in smoke?! Yet it's the thought that counts, and I can just tell what a wonderful message it was from your account of what happened. God bless you, and thank you so much for your encouragement. Happiness and Joy, Gershon

Valsa George Date: 2/8/2022 9:32:00 PM Poor man.... he struggled hard in life with out money, though his Flowers of Evil had made him famous....! He shifted from art to poetry and went from one to the other. His full life is caught in small, deft strokes ! Great Gershon Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 2/9/2022 11:54:00 AM Valsa, thank you for the appreciation on this effort. I know that it's 'not for just anyone,' as they say. With gratitude, Gershon
