dear Linda Marie... your poem is mystical
and lyrical like a Gypsy twirling in a breeze.
I have written your poem in my Journal.
Having Gypsy in my blood, since my father's family is from Hungary,
I was drawn to your words like a fire on a Winter's night.
"on tin rooftops shaking with thunder... over magical realms
thereunder." The parchment with a song is my treasure...
Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. I quiver... truly, Pat

Divine.....simply divine. In utter honesty, the "morning rain" imagery has more power associated with Spring, and the Spring stanza, though could be associated with Spring as well, could be associated with Summer. The only thing that screws up that critique and switch is the fact that the current progression of the images/ideas are utter perfection in that order, and you always know how to craft your lines so well, that I don't want you to tamper with anything.....I just feel that lulling about rain in a season that's not particularly supposed to have that much rainfall without also lulling about the central factors of the season like you do beautifully in every other season has a kind of je-ne-sais-quoi that doesn't really fit despite the delicious beauty of your words.
Just spouting my two cents, no need to take it seriously if you don't want to. This is a great piece (as usual). Well done!

I thought the very same thing, however, I was specifically talking about the heavy rain that comes with a thunderstorm. In Virginia, we normally have 25 days during the summer of temperatures in excess of 90 degrees. This year, we have more than doubled that so a thunderstorm is particularly welcome. As always, I appreciate your thoughts. Be well.
Oh, Linda, this is simply beautiful! A romantic poem that touches on all seasons and truly holds the key to what every artist wants....to be remembered. Incredible imagery and a great photo to accompany your words. A great package. Lydi**

Thank you, Robert. I'm sure you could sing it just fine.
"sing me sing me, baby, sing me sing me" from an old song.
i really like this poem...but the first stanza is really incredible...the quiver, the sarong...mmm, scrumptious word choice and rhyme there.
and if the poem is good enough...it will be sung or read forever by a thousand souls...for sure.

Thank you, Jacob. It's always a pleasure when you visit.
Poetry has been my passion since I was about fifteen years old, and I love the structure of rhyme and meter moreso than just randomly throwing words upon a page without any form whatsoever.
