Oh wow! Just wow! Brilliant, Rik. Seriously, mate. Brilliant. This is perfection, imho. So I am just going to stop there and fave this! Well done! 🌹👏🤯 Oh, and if someone complained to me about writing, well I would not have thought to brilliantly write this. I would have just written \'em an epic, rhyming elegy, in ballad form. Methinks your approach might have been superior to mine! Just \'cause! 😏 And one more thing I noticed. An apologia is less an apology and more a defense in classical writing. This was a great apologia, not that you had to offer it. Glad you did! Guess I didn\'t just \"stop there\", now did I. 🤣🪞🫗🎼🙏

There\'s nothing wrong in writing Rhyme
I seem to do it all the time
If Free Verse is the Horse you ride
No fence or hill you\'ll need abide.
Enjoyed your Poem.

Not sure if I have this right, but sounds like someone complaining about you having the ability to write in rhyme, which if is the case not sure what they are complaining about, to me you certainly have more than one style of writing, all enjoyable, nicely expressed and written

Isn\'t that funny how habit shows through. Have been accused of it as well and it does not go over well in an argument or very serious times. Loved it

The images merit pondering in this poem. With rhyme as well it spins its tale. Real and fanciful the images pull at ones mind the caterpillar and butterfly of the second stanza and the last stanza of the sun as a springless clock seen in its coils. Very nice in its subtlety a fave

Wow. You leave me breathless, and half delirious in concluding, sweetly fainting, half drunk on your delectable lines weaving a fantastical tale which takes my soul off on flights of fancy so dreamy I never want to leave. Gorgeous and beautifully rendered with exquisite imagery and a delicacy whose inherent poignancy makes me swoon. Thank you so very much for sharing. I love, love, LOVE it.
