Ananke Comments

Tsira, I love it again: a well chosen and realized topic. To tell the truth, I'm sick and tired of reading about love of listening songs about love. That's why I'm very attentive while reading yours (they differ from the ones I dislike) . Konstantin. PS. Today I've already read 6 your poems but written my comments on 3 ones.

Tsira: This is very well done. I had forgotten that Ananke is the Greek goddess of necessity and the personification of destiny and fate, depicted as holding a spindle. I also agree whole heartedly with GW62 and Roger, below, that the vision of Fate silently stealing upon us and with burning fingers opening our most sacred door, is a powerful visual. Many, many thanks! -G

I agree with Roger, those are great lines. I guess, I'll just have to settle for #2. I'll read on, we'll see.

Tsira.... This is wonderful.... 'With its burning fingers The sacred, the whitest Door of mine.' Just great poetry.... Rogerx

Beautifully translated - the poet and the translator, both deserve praise.

I enjoyed this well-done poem.

My congratulations...
