Daniel - another beautiful poem. Thank you. I love the themes - growing old, mourning a lost youth, and the hope of rebirth at the end. This has really hit home for me.
perhaps there is a grammatical or poetic word for it, but if so, I am ignorant.
It would be, is there a word for a poem that sounds like the mood of the entire content being evokd by the actual text, in a way that seems reminiscent of itself in the past (pertaining to the theme).
Sorry for the foggy comment, I am still finishing my novel revising and my attention is there. but thanks very much for this one. be well!
thanks Daniel! It is a challenging process, but I am having an unexpectedly great time wrapping it up. I had expected just minor edits, but instead I get rewarded with new additional sub-plots. Sometimes, writing is its own reward.
Daniel, feeling like I have been living this poem over the last decade or more...of course that is not unusual at my age and with the natural progression I see / have seen in those before and after me. And with such an intensely evocative verse!
‘A wayward way the wayward scorn.’ Lovely paradox, Daniel
