Pathya Vat is a very lovely and melodic form of poetry. I tried it once (poem:He stroked her face), and will surely be making use of it again. Enjoyed your double write...informative first part and light-hearted play in the second. /x/ paul

"D" . . . I guess I'm your frequent reader tonight!! I really applaud you experimentation in verse with your recent poems tonight. The "Dimeter" (aka "accentual-syllabic meter") is a fantastic poetic metric to make for a smashing and exciting and quite precise narrative write just like this one you've posted. I up on this stuff a lot because "Yours Truly" too is likewise experimenting with these wonderful tools of the poetic art!! Another Great Job!! A "7" from me too. Cheers!! Gary
