Left To Weather (+1)
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

Your poem reminded me of a certain happy time—teaching seven year olds.
Teaching Reading and Writing was my main focus. One of the lessons in the R&W unit was teaching homophones.
I decided to use the classic poem ā€œWhether the Weatherā€.

ā€˜Whether the Weather be cold,
Or whether the weather be hot,
We’ll weather the weather,
Whatever the weather
Whether we like it or not.’

It was a fun lesson. By the end of the unit, the students had memorized it. So we used it for the tongue twister lesson, reading comprehension, and of course the Poetry unit.

Thank you for sharing and reminding me of the happy faces of my seven year old students.
Happy memories for sure!

To that first stanza of the second poem I can only say: If you don\'t know where you are going, you cannot get lost!

Kurt,

Fascinating!

I always seem to find something relatable or resonating in your poems...especially the ā€˜Dreamsleep’ ones!

Kurt,

Four great reads.
I do love your

He certainly was ā€œdevouredā€!
He was something else,
to say the least!

Ouch...
Your pen does have a way with words.
This one is painfully sobering!

Kurt,

Great poem! Thank you for sharing.

One of my favorite Dylan Thomas quotes...

ā€˜Though lovers be lost,
love shall not’

P.S.-I like the way you used his middle name for the title of your poem!

Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

Extraordinary write!

As I was reading
ā€œIn Search Of The Creamā€,
what reverberated in my mind was
—cream of the crop.
And you are the ā€˜crĆØme de la crĆØme’ amongst the poets that I read!

Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

• ā€œThe Devil’s Sonā€

Considering these difficult times we’re experiencing, it made me think of
ā€˜ā€” the devil’s son’
as the Coronavirus.
I guess it’s because that’s what’s on my mind most of the day.

Stay safe and well.šŸ¤—
