Kokopelli

Listen! There’s a melody wafting sweetly, Tempting blossoms liltingly. Watch enchantment! Kokopelli’s bringing the beauty nearer. Magical flautist! For the Sapphic Stanza Number Three - Poetry Contest of Craig Cornish

An enchanting poem, Andrea. I loved the way it flowed. A good intro for me to use as a template for constructing a sapphic stanza poem. I will try my hand at it. Ty for sharing this w/us. Much love to you, lady.

This is without a doubt the awesomest sapphic I have ever seen! I do believe you are the enchanted poetess. Regarding my contest, yes you will have to repeat shorter forms. Thanks so much for your interest. I expect you will blow me over.

FINALLY! I was able to post Kokopelli photo on my blog in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Still don't know how Kyle managed to put ladder atop wood and get out to Kokopelli but he did it ...and NOW Kokopelli is back in the circuit wining races to Mexico again! Thanks Andrea for the memory! Harsh though it was...Thanks

Visited Sedona a few years ago where first became acquainted with figurines ad cards depicting Kopelli. This brought back fond memories for me! Did you see what I wrote on your wall?

Your title drew me to read this. During Hurricane Katrina the only racing sailboat, in our club, that was not destroyed, due to the way "she" was tied was our beloved "Kokopelli" which even today continues to win races from Florida to Isla Mujeres Mexico! Loved it! Thanks for the memories! Cerveza!

One last thing...you now have a lot more comments on this poem. I know it would be a lot better if they weren't all me, but comments are hard to come by on the soup these days. You've got to take what you can get.
