The road to happiness is full of ruts

With love,  we’ll pave the way

Denis Joe Date: 12/21/2008 1:45:00 AM This is a great poem Elaine. First off. the use of birds against the elements is a well used metaphor in this poem. The language is everyday that allows the poem to be appreciated as a poem and not an exercise. I like the lack of punctuation, it reminds me of Appollanaire's statement that the lines are already seperate therefore the reader knows where to pause. I'm a sticler for grammer but I can appreciate what you have done here. Login to Reply

Sharon Winter Date: 12/20/2008 3:54:00 PM I always am an awe of the tiniest birds who survive the winter through. Of course I am thinking this is all a metaphor, and well done at that. Amazing the human will. As is nature. Miracles abound. Beautiful write. Love, shar Login to Reply
