A \'little\' sonnet with an incisive analysis of an aspiring poet\'s ways and means.
Not \'little\' at all, the subject as realised by you.

\'And I, a mortal, dare to dream,
although I’m quintessential clay;
beneath the sky, in vain, I scheme
to conjure one who went away.\'
what an eloquent verse of poetry you\'ve penned here, encapsulating your poems entire message with such crisp brevity,
Brilliant!
Happy New Year dear Poet

I really like your verse, a rousing poulter\'s measure (iambic heptameter couplets) that deftly avoids sounding like Edgar A. Guest.
To my eye, this verse would be better set up with left justification rather than with the middle axis MyPoeticSide defaults to if not strongly dissuaded from it.
The only reason I\'d want to learn Russian would be to be able to read Pushkin. My foreign language is German.

A very profound write Kevin and your words \"(not found in church, with steeple)\" are so meaningful as organised religion is a farce, I dismissed organised religion when my wife was taken from me by dementia and eventually passed. She had been singing the christian praises all her life, I was a Chaplain at one point but once I dismissed organise religion it was as though a weight ha been lifted from me.
I still believe in god, but it is my god. I also believe that Jesus existed but look upon him as the first Hippie making love not war.
As Dave Allen always said \"May your God go with you\"

Lovesick lines composed on a rainy day
Robert Southwick Richmond said:
The first poem I\'ve read on MyPoeticSide where the middle-axis line justification seems to work with the poem, which is really well-constructed metrically.
I don\'t use middle-axis myself - it can be quite a chore to get MyPoeticSide to left-justify.
\"If we\'d only knew\" is ungrammatical.

You\'re a rare Poet, I\'ll proudly admit
as I witness each line of truth, your finger\'s bleed,
to serenade aching heart\'s, you\'ve never met
and share that solace, you\'ve mined from within...
what a wonderful melody you\'ve weaved dear Poet,
thank you for sharing, Happy Holidays

I\'ve been on MyPoeticSide just three days. You actually know how to write a poem! And you have a real name. Let\'s follow each other.
Including how to format on this WordPress site. You can even evade the middle axis, though it takes work.
Right now I\'m playing with the format.

Nice contemplations and a good read Kevin. Yes it\'s clear you spent an hour listening to a field of flowers growing as it nearly takes that long to get your ear in. It\'s a bit like night vision that takes a bit of time to tune in.
Thanks man!
