A princess of Romanian folk died

I applaud you for writing and posting this poem! It is simply one of the sincerest and most infectious elegies I have read. Twenty minutes ago I did not know of this person of talent, beauty and devotion named Tatiana Stepa. But through your words I can inch forward to an appreciation of what she has given to you and your fellow Romanians. I am especially moved by your beautiful closing words whose inspiration crosses borders with their beauty and truth: The more beautiful we become after hearing her sing (WOW!) .and if we learned to exist as part of the Earth, when only love could keep us together, it was because she lived to teach us how to live. That is so beautiful, I'm moved to tears. You called one of your poems an ARS POETICA. This too is an Ars Poetica, and it captures fully what makes us love poetry and strive to write it. And dear Tatiana, rest in peace, your labors were blessed.
The music made them beautiful - I like that idea, keys in with water crsyals being played harmonious music grew more symmetric. so has figurative and material meaning and truth. nice.
This is beautiful! I like the switch in what I'm thinking is your language.

You have good imagination but the poems are too serious for me. Maybe thats the way in Romania. It does have a sad reputation to us Westerners. I love laughing and challenge you to write a funny poem to make me happy. Lots of luck from your Froggie friend Alan

good and eloquent tribute to the great singer, Marieta...thanks for sharing your feelings...10
a mournful heartfelt homage to someone you very obviously had great respect if not some love for. creative addition of her being a princess and how her singing will be mourned by the counrty (the land) itself will mourn her as well. she was brave and strong as long as she could be considering her battle with illness, and led a life too short because of this. while she is gone you can take solace in the music she left behind.

The cool green trees the guittar strings the filled eyes all are mourning with unrethymically beating hearts, I am also joining with you...,
A nice gratitude to a great singer Tatian Stepa, May her soul rest in peace!
