From The Underside Of The Wild Roses

Teddy.15

There's something most intriguing

about the work of a great poet

once he's dead

maybe it's the simple silence

never having to answer questions on his work…

  • Comment from author about the poem: I often wonder the meaning of poems i read sometimes i don't have a clue but it doesn't mean i don't like what i read. Then there are those who i can study and understand so much more deeply for example, The Raven which is one of my all time favourite poems by Edgar Allan Poe. incredible what just a small amount of research can uncover.

        Many great artists not appreciated in their life time, I think of Van Gogh and others. Beauty does not need to be understood just felt. My mark of a great poem is one that touches me emotionally. A wonderful write Teddy

          I'm still pondering the title - haven't got to the main meal yet....

          You are a poetic tease at times, Teddy.....😉

              Ok
              I'll ask before you snuff it
              What does it mean?
              Clever as always

              • Teddy.15

                Hi peto, what does what mean?

              • peto

                Hi Teddy
                That didn't really work
                Apologies
                Was questioning the work of a great poet

                • Teddy.15

                  Oh I see lol 🤣 you've been missed. I absolutely wouldn't class myself as any great poet, but you did just make me giggle. ❤️

                  • peto

                      So true Teddy but if you enjoy it its meaning may not matter.

                        for sure dear Andy, and if i am curious i simply ask or take to research.
