Your poetry is like chocolate to me, they both enrich my life, and give sensual fulfillment to my soul..... Poetry and chocolate....:faint:

Charity, if I were not out of frubals right now, you would have a year's supply in one swoop. What a thing to say! :)

Can't brain. Has dumb.
Each poem has been tested and is guaranteed to go well with chocolate.

Tested here in NZ, and I must say, the test results came out the same. I can confidently report that it doesn't matter which hemisphere you're in to enjoy these poems with chocolate.

Also; Extensive testing has been done (last night, that is) and these go equally well with Baileys-drenched chocolate icecream.

Perhaps anything chocolate is all-go.

I think we're onto something here, folks! Poetry and chocolate! :clap This could no less than mark the beginnings of a revival of the art form!

Just think, if chocolate was offered with poetry classes at school, we'd get alot of fat, poetic children...!!!

(emphasis, of course, on "poetic" ;))

I don't want to imply I think my poetry is special, but I will mention we use only the most expensive and flavorful electrons when transmitting it across the net to you.

The Puzzled Flowers of Monument Creek: Oh, how true! Your poems do tend to contain profound thoughts, lurking under the covers of flippancy. (hehe... I loved the fleet of rubber duckies image) :) That's the best way to present profound thoughts, I think... not to take yourself-- or the thought-- too seriously. I do really like the use of names and locations; just makes the poem feel that much more homey. I can just see all the beautiful young maidens gazing wistfully at the water, wishing and waiting. But why are they puzzled, we wonders? hmmm

Painted Horses Wet with Rain: Bravo! This one has no need of commentary, as it presents itself as it is, and that's all that needs to be said.

Kenyon Road: Mm. This one's making me think for a long while. I'm thinking about the structure of poetry, and how it lends itself to allowing poets to flip syntax around in order to make a mundane sentence interesting, poignant; depth is added by the ordering of words, almost irrelevant to what the words themselves contain. I love the effect, and the sheer manipulation of words in poetry; but isn't manipulating the reader, in fact, wrong? I almost get a thrill out of it, the dishonesty; but then, not all dishonesty is wrong, and perhaps by showing that up is down, then perhaps dishonesty is actually the most honest thing. My apologies... I am rambling.

This is one of those poems that gets better the longer you take with it; read through fast, then take it slow, find the cadence and the breaks. Once the full flavor hits you, though, wow! Well done, Sunstone.
