When I clicked on your poem, I was going to start by welcoming you but then to my surprise the poem is a farewell to the craft you sense you cannot exercise. But the poem with its wonderfully constructed stanzas and frequent and eloquent expressions of an impasse flows majestically on to a natural ending. But I don't want to put MY ideas in your head. Just to acknowledge a poem of humility and grace. Perhaps... what you want to say is, Thank you, Realm of Poetry, for letting still wander among your green growths, even in this Autumn of my writing, and touch whatever life I can still reach.
