Deep And Indelible Comments

This is magnificent Tony - I dips me lid! Your eloquent use of the English language, your cleverly conceived blend of the then and the now, and the fascinating detail of the historical narrative all impress. Your first verse is perfectly proportioned and invites the reader into the soul of the piece and the tragic figure at its heart. You're right. 'History writes itself deep and indelible in the souls of its witnesses.' Outstanding poetry. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Tony, This is truly a historic and interesting story of the area and one individual caught in the middle of war and loyalties and human response. As usual, you write with outstanding skill and intelligence. Thank you for the insights. Well penned.10 here. Jim
