Nights Come To A Pennsylvania Field Comments

You know, it took me reading this poem in your book of poetry to truly feel it... something about holding paper in hand, like holding onto the words themselves, that always enters deeper in some sense... I must say how much I really like this work. It's filled with a spirit of great grace, of understanding, and no small amount of genuine love. What an amazing poem, when read slowly, thoughtfully and in silence.

R. G. Bell, I'm glad to have found you here. What a fine poem this is. I've seen no better on this subject and theme. Much as I loath the concept of grading a poem numerically, were I ever to embrace (ugh!) such a concept I would surely give this eleven out of ten. Thank you for it. - Bep.
