Like a piece of ice on a hot stove, the poem must
ride on its own melting.
Robert
Frost
Here’s poem of mine that appears in my book Ordinary Things:
Poems From a Walk in Early Spring (Atheneum).
running water
dripping
off rooftops
liquified
diamonds
lit
by clean light
babbling
snow-melt
bringing
the gossip
spilling
off mountains
young
laughing
running
water

I love the imagery in your poem. I lived in Madison, WI up until two years ago and I remember the drip, drip, dripping of the snow melt come spring. A welcome sound. =) Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThanks for joining us, Ralph!
ReplyDeleteI especially like "babbling snow-melt
bringing the gossip
spilling off mountains"
Great quote, and I love the way your poem melts down the page!

ReplyDeleteMy husband and I have been having lots of problems living together, he never gives me attention or makes me happy because he has fallen in love with another woman outside our marriage. I tried my best to make sure that my husband leaves this woman but the more I talk to him about it the more he makes me feel sad and unhappy, My marriage started leading to divorce because he no longer gives me attention. I wanted to forget him but i love him and didn't want to lose him. We have been married for years and he is all I could call a true best friend and best in all, the man that handles my problems perfectly, the man that makes sacrifices for ,my happiness. I wanted him back in my life badly and I was so confused. My Friends told me to buy books about relationships, so I went online for relationship books while I came across a spell caster called Dr Emu. I read testimonies and reviews about him so I contacted him immediately, explained my problems to him. Same day , he casted a spell for me and assured me for 2 days that my husband will return to me and to my greatest surprise the third day my husband came knocking on my door and begged for forgiveness. I am so happy that my love is back again and not only that, we are about to get married again, he proposed. I wouldn't stop talking about him. Contact him today if you need his help via email: emutemple@gmail.com and you will see that your problem will be solved without any delay. Website: https://emutemple.wordpress.com/
