Not quite sure what it means, but love the way 'lovely' and 'balmy' work. ~ Goofy and Daffy

Be glad to explain. Insteasd of stretching to write a Piem of PIWER, beaut and bursting with soul. We are copping to snippet poetry. It's getting nutty. Even a new form here was incorrect. I suggest SHADOWPOETRY.Com for valid forms. I get it, too, Gershon....each has his own ways I write long and short. I too liked liked lovely and balmy, Merci, Pangie

Haha no fear of me conforming to that, I'll continue writing poems of epic proportions. Tom

Please continue, your outstanding poems Tom. They are educational for all! English is lovely. Some here are masters at shorter forms. Too often I see it as a way out of challenging ourselves to write another style. You, already know your expertise here. I write all kinds as you know. And just be me. If people don't like us, don't read us. I don't need a crown here. Just a few honest, loving friends is terrific. Those two sentences so simple, and fun. Panagiota

I agree -- much of my later poetry, has been stripped down to bare necessities. I don't have time to waste on too much flamboyancy unless it is truly original and fascinating. Blessings.

Do what works for you, Joe. I go long and short. I think the internet age has crushed our ability to be patient...blessings be yours. Hot here too but AC, groovy. Pangie xxoo
