"A poets pardon is wasteful/it seems like noontime in that garden when it gleams..." Beautiful.

This seems like two separate poems put together. I really enjoyed this one, especially the first half of it. The clever rhyming made me smile. It was sexual and sensual while at the same time very sweet.

This will only be the 15th review for this poem at this time, and although that would seem pretty good, nearly all of your others have like upwards of 30-40 reviews. That's crazy. It's good to see that so many read your stuff, though, because there is no way it couldn't leave an impression on them.

You are not affraid to experiment with poetry. I like it a lot, it reads easily and has a nice atmosphere.

interesting comparisons... I like it

I like the first line :-). This is a very nice and lovely poem. I love your style. Keep writing!

i don't know why, but it leaves me aching.

Nice...I enjoyed the way this poem was written. It also ends good.

I love this poem have to say it's one of my favorites.

I know it mentions making love snug as a bug etc; yet the first image it brings to my mind is that of a slightly aged person terminally ill, on medication that leaves them light headed, & feeling drugged, waiting to die.

"It seems like noontime in that garden that gleams".

To me it seems this person wishes it were later. In effect wishing their life away.

I guess it could also be literally bedbugs being hit by poisons to get rid of them, then looking out at noon as they, stay snug to die.

I don't know whether any of this was intentional or perhaps subconciously so. Either way I think it's excellent.

Well Done

KEEP WRITING!

F.C

o so prettful, muchly excellent, i love every last line, strong ending, beautifully done

I enjoyed the sardonic rhyme, or at least I assume it's sardonic. I think everything is sardonic anymore.

I appreciate your reviews so much, you have no idea. But.. about this work of poetry... I love your style. It's so vague, doesn't spell everything out, so people are left to draw their own emotions from it. It could have a thousand different meanings to a thousand different people, and that's what I like about your style. Keep it up!

heh, i like it. it's short and sweet in it's own bitter manner.

Beautiful. I love it. Amazing & superb beyond anything.

simply beautiful.-kwazykandypie AKA Kelly Ann-
