I Read The Poems Of Tagore For You Comments

so hi, norah! now that i'm aware of you from you commenting on a few of my poems, i'm starting to check out yours. this is the second i've read, and i'm looking forward to more. on this one i wonder about the you in this poem- who it is and whether this person was soon to pass. it brings to my mind the last minutes with my dad who passed while i was in his hospital room singing the few psalms i knew with jewish melodies. i wrote of the experience in my poem, how faint and elusive. gk

After a terrible fall my best friend was put in an induced coma by his doctors and for weeks I read poems out loud to He and I have a special love for Chinese Poetry, and I read from anthology of 3000 years of Chinese poetry, a book he treasured. When he finally awoke, the brain damage has cruelly cut in mind apart. But every week I visit him in rehab, read poems, mine and others, and he makes a heart-breaking attempt to speak about them, but can't finish a sentence. Your beautiful poem reconciles me to this new role of friend I play. Your poem makes the Heart Chakra brighten and send forth healing rays. I'm going to read it to Paul, because on some level, he will understand the feeling the pours out of this poem.

A stunning write that portrays devastating loss and shock in it's vivid starkness. A resounding 10 and straight to my favorites.

A lovely poem on one of my frequently visited themes.

sometimes the light of eternity shone through the veil and quietude softened. the heart breaking tenderness. cherished illusions. very fine expressions. thank you dear poetess.
