A fine write. Ohh I know - not 13 lines or 15 lines - must be 14! heehee.
THANKS "O" ~ As with everything in life ~ Classical Poetry has rules. There are very strict rules about Classical Sonnets in terms of Rhyme ~ Rhythm and Verification. I am an iconoclast somy rule is very broad ! "A SONNET is any poem with 14 lines" And of course not 13 or 15 but only FOURTEEN and FOURTEEN only. Yours BRIAN
Hear hear - lets give it up for MPS -now why do they say 'lets give it up' - one of the silliest and most annoying bits of nonsense - what are they giving up - meat on Fridays? I can't abide sloppy misuse of the language not that that applies here - great write. There now I've done it myself - write isn't a noun. Anyway you know what I mean.
Thanks MICHEAL for another encouraging comment. Commenting is a most important aspect of MPS. As you know ~ I am a Classical Poet and i love the linguistic constrictions and constraints of the classical forms ~ as i know you do. However the thing I love about MODERN POETRY is that there are no constrains of form ~ grammar ~ spelling ~ meter ~ rhyme or reason ~ a complete tabla rasa ~ AMEN. As in every day live we need rules & regulations ~ BUT ~ we all enjoy COMPLETE LIBERTY as well Yiours BRIAN.
You are so right - there is a line between taking liberties and sloppiness -- when it comes to extending and strangling the language for poetic creativity I am all for it.
Very well written Brian, it is a great and supportive site.
Thanks GF we all seem to be in harmony on that point ~ great site ~ Yours BRIAN
You did a really good job on this acrostic sonnet! And I loved the authors comment too! Everyone's poetic profile is different. But I love that you are one of the few that has a muse that won't stop--you post everyday! Really great job on this! Hugs--Christina
Thanks CHRIS for your helpful and encouraging comments ! DS has remarked about the quality and empathy of this site. It is that excellence that stirs my muse and compels me to try and post every day when possible ~ MPS quality Hugs ~ for YOU ~ BRIAN
This place would not be the same without you Brain, it is the best site to post that I have found , and I have been posting since poetry.com started. WW
