Dare I Write For You

Dare I now close my eyes and visualize
what kind of childhood memories you hide
inside a mind that churns out a surprise;
Each write, the genius cannot be denied.
As I read each and every poem I try
to understand the heart behind each word.
The lines which may have led someone to sigh
have left this ardent reader pleased and stirred.
      Dare I disclose that I have fantasized,
      with simple lines I hoped to tributize?

Those last two lines are awesome...the fact that as a reader you seek to understand fully and deeply is an amazing quality. I always enjoy reading your work and seeing into your heart and mind.

Yes, I'm intrigued by the writer-reader dance myself, Jack. An interesting scenario isn't it? If a reader does not understand or worse, she misinterprets the piece, should the writer be offended? IS the reader supposed to "work" in trying to understand the piece? On the rare occasion that it resonates, who did a good job, the writer for writing in a style which can be comprehended easily, or the reader, for being in a situation where she now fully understands what was previously unclear to her? Poetry is supposed to be subjective, right?

I was wondering what has happened to you. From what I read it was not that serious. I pray all is well and all will be so in the future! Your writing here so inquisitive and philosophical! Welcome back, dear Kim.

Thanks, sire. No it's not serious, just a relapse of a simple flu that should have taken 2-3 days only. Again, thanks for your kind words, sire. hugs!
