    really like that second stanza
    thanks for sharing, dear poet

    • arqios

      Thanks L.B., the fate indentured life is something that not many understand and it also manifests itself in other forms. And our awareness brings the light of amelioration.

    • orchidee

      You'll start me off singing! Arrgghh! they say. lol. Good write CB.

    • Fay Slimm.

      Your beautiful tribute brought my attention to the video of Phyllis Wheatly's words sung so soothingly as the painting took shape - a most interesting and inspiring poetess whose pierceing perception held me spellbound - - thank you for sharing her wonderful talent Rik.

    • Doggerel Dave

      A tribute to a short but both strange and amazing life about which I had no prior notion. So Thanks, Rik.
      I have to spend some more time cogitating upon your poem now.....
