Rondel-Literature

Literature

is the creation of words:

funny, sad, dramatic, tragic or satirical...

so adored by writers,

to appease their exploding passion through

literature!


Literature

is verse or prose...

seen by different eyes;

its works outlast us:

excellence is the essence in

literature!

A great poem to extol the wonder of literature, Andrew. I have loved it since my youth. It's obvious you did too. That is why you can write the way you do! LUv, Andrea

And this is excellent, Andrew. I don't have much experience with this form but I did make an attempt and I like it. Still need more practice, though. Great job! Peace, Audrey

Literature does outlast the writer, Andrew. All of the things you say about the creative process are true. I just wish more young people today were reading; they would rather wait and see a movie than to absorb all of the power that comes from a writer's original words. Excellent double rondel! Love, Carolyn
