Notes About The Poem
A Line Gauthier Contest: Bite Size No91 Resubmittions Only Poetry Submitted 28 Sept 24 Resubmitted 12 Oct 24

Handwritten


To weave a word, a fabric of thought, 
Each stroke on dreary image caught :
Pale tinge of citrusy note, half drawn 
Written in bleak ,yellowing song--
Old letters soar now in ashen white, 
Where muted language of angst
    takes flight.

Oh my, what a beautifully moving and heart-touching piece this is, I could almost feel the scent of those handwritten emotions here... It's the first poem, perhaps, that I'm reading from you and I must say, your writing style is truly captivating. Gorgeous wordsmithery throughout with "Pale tinge of citrusy note, half drawn Written in beaten ,yellowing song--" Ethereal artistry reflected here.. Sending best wishes and light to you, a wonderful read it was ~

That last line says a lot. Somehow it's easier to write down our feelings than to express them. Handwritten? Even better. Very nice Nette
