Nette Onclaud Poet Clerihew

Robert Frost

Robert  Frost

With vigor,  intense lines  did exhaust--

His road not taken was backbreaking

That poet grew old   from spine aching.

Gershon Wolf March 28, 2019 at 4:26 PM Frost is fascination, esp. for me, as I attended the college he did...and remember his stirring poetry reading at John F. Kennedy's Presidential inauguration back in the 1960's...and oh, that road not taken... :) gw

Caren Krutsinger March 24, 2019 at 10:48 AM A beautiful missive for the contest; I liked his poems for they were easy to understand, and quick to read.

Arturo Michael March 24, 2019 at 9:23 AM If sat for long, we all would be aching too...poetry has a price if over used...All the best Nette...

John Lawless March 24, 2019 at 8:03 AM Nette, I always read the final lines of that poem to be a great "tongue in cheek" moment in poetry....."a n d it has made all the difference..." John Lawless March 24, 2019 at 8:05 AM OOPS...."and that has made all the difference"
