Being new to this site and this style of presentation, in all honesty I Just loved it, though I had little understanding of the subject matter. Beautiful, Beautiful just BEautiful.
The way you present your poetry requires additional viewings to get the message and your intentions in my mind as a reader. Your choice of words and language applied is rather effortless. For me the message becomes obscured when i have to wait for pauses between lines. Call me old fashioned, but i much prefer to read poetry in my head to fully grasp the meanings and sensations in my mind. No knock on your writing ability at all. I just have trouble with the format. It takes some getting used to.
I will continue to follow your writing and perhaps over time i will become accustomed to the way in which it is presented. Either way, you write very well. Lovely imagery and language.

You can turn off the volume and that would allow you to just read but you would be left with the spaces. For me it is the spaces in between that truly allow for any impactful meaning. I am loving what I do with my works ... I have a theatre background .... and it is hard for me not to dress it up. I do hope you stick with the vids. Many of my poems are also in hard copy and digital and your local library can order them in. Alas not ... this one ... yet:)
Such great words and beautifully presented. Maybe I should record my poems with donkeys braying in the background.

What a beautifully moving thread of thoughts, and how I long to find this surrender to the tide. Ripples flow through every moment... what extravagance to find their light. :)
This is lovely. I love how you were able to write about the subject of intimacy without ever mentioning it. It was all about feelings, and how tender yet extreme it can be. Very well done Pryde :)

Thank you, Amber. Quite pleased with your review:)
I like this one a lot. Peaceful. The short phrases and spaces between hint at the silence and peace suggested in the words. It's funny how many choose to fight over surrender, when all will have to surrender in the end. Great work, Pryde.

dear Pryde, your poem Rippled Sublime has touched
my heart and soul, in that, due to aging I have deterioration
at the top of my spine. Now X-rays have shown that I have
Arthritis down my spine. It was first noticed recently with pain
in my shoulders. The words by your voice and music is very
soothing and gentle... the ripple effect. We can maintain a
young attitude in spite of the pain. The doctor has told me
that exercise is the best medicine. Thank you for the blessing of
your beautiful poetry. truly, Pat

But sorry to hear of your physical pain but yes the mind can transcend any physical pain. Surrender aids in this. I do hope you find relief from your pain. Sending you much love, Patricia:)
An interesting poem Pryde "rippled sublime" title reminded me of my times body building and the love and the pain one endures through the goals of exercise. the euphoria of feeling good after one was pumped! And yes the sweetness and the pain applies to love as well just involves two being finely tuned with one another.

I guess there is a connection of sorts ... the pursuit of perfection so to speak. Thanks for visitin.. read moreI guess there is a connection of sorts ... the pursuit of perfection so to speak. Thanks for visiting:)
I guess I am more a "softness of a permanent melt" kinda guy Pryde... going into a new love fresh, leaving shards behind.. though I do admit that we bring with us all the heart ache and lessons we have learned with us, I find if I have truly learned something from others than the "rippled sublimed" is special and wonderful each time... I also admit to having little experience in having many loves and lovers, so perhaps it is just a fools romantic notion...
I listened to you read this poem many times before commenting, I hope you do not mind where I took it...
