My comments on the poem \"Butterflies with wings of gold – Collection of poems” by River Hart
“Untitled” is an excellent title… We can make anything we want out of it. It is like a new file we create on the computer. It is called “untitled.” We type anything in it, draw anything in it, play with it in any way we like. It remains untitled until we decide to give it a name. Thus, at some point we are forced to choose a label.
You have written much about snow. Snow is bound to fascinate the poet. Snow does not discriminate against anything in its way : it covers all in the same way.
“But pleasures are like poppies spread ---
You seize the flower, the bloom is shed;
Or like snow falls in the river ---
A moment white, then melts forever.”
--Robert Burns (1749-1796)
The snow that falls into the river gets melted and flushed away quickly. On land, snow lingers on longer. It is the job of the poet to seize the marvels of nature (like snowfall) and record them permanently for humanity. Soman Ragavan. 24 May, 2023. //

Hope y\'all enjoy! Remember, do not fear the raven\'s slight/But marvel at their strength and might/For in their sleek and glossy hue/Lies a wisdom old and true.
