There is a great deal of sadness and nostalgia in this poem. I love the lines \"An old man remembers through youth\'s inner eye\". Nicely done Norman.

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Norman, you\'ve actually got me looking forward to the first snowfall! And that\'s saying something, considering how quickly I start complaining about winter once it arrives! π A lovely read, my friend. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Oh, Norman, you\'ve got me wanting to wander through an old English town after midnight! Though knowing my luck, I\'d stumble into a pub full of dead poets arguing over whose work deserved publication. And I\'d probably join the argument! ππΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

The meter and cadence of this poem made it special. It showed good rhyme as well as an ornament and the message was enchanted in fog with each line emerging from it magically. Most lovely and a fave

One of my favorite songs Vincent by Don McLean, I could tell right off that this was following that trend. This poem is brilliant in its brevity and ability to convey the same meaning to anyone that knows the story where so many familiar images of his life are incorporated into it. I truly love this poem my friend.

I love the meter of this poem. My favorite lines :
\"Midnight weeps
With tired eyes\"
I feel that phrase having been there before. In its sadness it speaks to me my friend. A fave
