Vlog

Aver, perpend on
many a stance, none hasps me
to vim as you can.

Anguish for instance
to ensconce in lone oriel
as rete to nest sighs.

Lest dissolve in woe
delving for exegesis
In scanty obelisks.

my goodness Mrudula! a feel of medieval in the language ... hints of building and modern day vlog ... had to search meaning but scanty indeed were the fruits of that ;) love "..none hasps me to vim as you can" ... like rubbing our rough edges off each other in community and relationship .. to war or understanding it seems the possible outcomes ... seeking ever in Holy Words for the help we need ... tho looking in a building .. perhaps rather fruitless ... as they are scanty clad no matter the ornamentation ... these are the thoughts inspired by your poem for me .. i absolutely enjoyed just the reading of it .. several times ... you are so good at the unique, creative and delightful use of the language .. perhaps the nugget is well hidden and meant to remain so ... but just the reading itself was a tickle for me

Thank you very much.

from your parapet oriel the view must be transcendent for the words you extol dazzle my senses and dizzy my mind from those heights:) I am left wondering to whom could possibly hasp that mind lest of course you refer to divinity and in that case I am thinking that a mutual affair:) this last stanza to me is a poignant expression to a consonant feeling that I have in my lackluster ability to fully express my minds intent to give it justice... my scanty obelisks will be of little regard in future archaeological perusals:) that is what the Bunny sees

[Robert Trakofler]

I should addend... that doesn't mean I wont try to chisel a fine obelisk

[Mrudula Rani]

Your thoughts on my poems are always so fantastically grand dear Robert. Thank you.

This could be Jesus on his travels sorting out the world.
Mind you if he was on his travels today I wonder how he would get on.
Okay I'm off on my own travels now, trick or treating the neighbours.

[Mrudula Rani]

Today Jesus would get around effortlessly on those super sonic flights, and he wouldn't be needing those awful sandals!
How was your trick or treating? I hope you got lots of goodies to last till next Halloween.

[Paul Bell]

Did okay, need to run it off now. lol

[Neville]

I rarely if ever leave your pages now without being amazed at how you have grown since we first met and to have developed a style that is both captivating and unique... this page is no exception to that rule....

[Mrudula Rani]

Thank you dear Neville for your kind review.

Your title is intriguing, Mrudula. After reading the poem with the title in mind, I’m left thinking of the feeling of exasperation that comes from partaking of a vitriolic online offering. YouTube is full of such things, and it’s quite easy to accidentally stumble on something objectionable and then be caught in the maze of someone else’s tangled nest of thought.

Pardon me if I’m off target, but the shortness of your lines and a few well chosen words really point me in the direction of trying to shake off negativity and counter it with something a little more balanced. Shining a little on the dark spots of one’s argument. Feels quite timely as information is so skillfully weaponized today.

Some really great phrases I love just for their mood and quality of sound: anguish for instance being one. Love the sharpness of that. Always a pleasure to contemplate the subjects you have in mind.

[Mrudula Rani]

Just to read your contemplations is such a delight, Eilis. Thank you for pondering upon my words. Tudo de bom para te ( wishing you all the best)

When we visit your page, it is a learning experience, an eye opening on windows of knowledge. You choose your words carefully and your ideas. Has a classic feel and reading. Hasp in Harware is a type of lock and you use it perhaps in the sense of locking a relationship down, locking feelings together. Whoa...

[Mrudula Rani]

Thank you for your wonderful understanding and encouragement dear Sami.

[Sami Khalil]

My great pleasure. You are welcome. Keep it up....

'.. none hasps me - to vim as you can. ' Truly do feel I should adopt that phrase!

You have your very own language, setting mysteries into a public domain that needs invigorating at times. I'll have to read and read these musical phrases a few times more before i clearly hear their tune. But, promise you, it will be heard.. be sure of that!

Tis wonderful to find your gift, dear friend.

[Mrudula Rani]

Thank you dear beautiful Emmajoy, for your gorgeous visit, you always make me feel splendid with your generously.

[emmajoy]

More than content and happy to visit.. ever always!
