Poet Sapphic stanza

Names

Every past that perfectly colors letters,
haunting losses beckon the predecessors,
utter names in passion or greeting, makes a
furious girlfriend.

ha. For me, it was opposite. My hubbie hated even seeing a picture of an old boyfriend of mine. I was so curious to see his one girlfriend but never did know much about her. Congrats on your win This was a most interesting one!

rob, i sometimes do well with sapphic, a few times, not... this one is way out of the ballpark!... congrats and thanks for coming around to compliment my entry in the HM contest... i don't give HMs in my challenges, they have no award point and seriously, i find this placement degrading; just saying.. miss your contests... my dachsund snickers is limping; i'll bring her to the vet... huggs to you and boo!

TY you Nette. I need to get to hosting, time is just hard to find now. My well wishes for Snickers. Boo is getting old, his fur is starting to turn white around the face and on the paws. Hugs back to you.

Just here to say thanks for your comment on my little poem. I hope you will do Greg's latest contest. I bet you have a free verse with four lines that can stand on their own somewhere, don't you? Would love to see it.

Yes, indeed, it gets harder every day to remember names and separate them into the right categories.

TY Craig for hosting & my placement.

My friend, I could not even come close to writing such in this poetry form. I have never written poetry in this form and seems to be a very difficult form to compose verse in. Yet you did an amazing job of it..

February 13, 2019 at 5:56 AM

Yes, this site has some great benefits and one of those is its many great members that display such amazing poetic talents. I find this poetry site has an over abundance of very gifted poets! So many, that its impossible to read them all even if one dedicates a hundred hours a week to make the attempt.

February 12, 2019 at 9:09 PM

Thanks Robert. One of the things I like about this site, the contests introduces us to new forms. I have learned a lot here.

Nicely done, with a very tough form, (and I wholly relate, lol) ... blessings and best wishes for the contest.

February 9, 2019 at 1:21 PM

Thanks Gregory, and best wishes to you too.

February 8, 2019 at 8:28 AM

WITTY. All the best.

February 8, 2019 at 9:06 PM

Thanks Anisha.

February 3, 2019 at 3:37 PM

You are more clever than I, you not only understood the contest, you apparently mastered the required approach. I'm impressed and very pleased for you. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

Before meeting my first wife, I dated 3 Kellys in a row. So for a few years, all I said was 'Kelly'. Took me a few weeks to drop the habit. Thanks for reading & commenting. You may want to give this contest a shot, there is still time. A Poetry Hug back to you.

Interesting stanza, great jux.
