Perhaps pain never falls asleep

Resoundingly true observations, Susan. They say great poetry often springs from either extreme joy or exceeding sorrow...if they're any true, that is. I really greatly admire the taciturn turns hereabove.

No pain, no gain? I thought that only applied to exercise, but perhaps you have discovered the secret to poetry and all other arts!

hahahahahaha.... Your 4 words summed up my poem so well- and here I was actually pleased with my poem's brevity. Well, back to the drawing board! ! !

In 4 great succinct lines, you have captured the essence of pain and suffering as seen through the window of art. In having recently read about Padre Pio, I can visualize a great artist capturing such on the canvas of his life. Susan, as always, this is a brilliant work of art from a stellar poetess. It deserves far more than a mere 10. Welcome back! Much success with your latest novel. Can't wait to start reading the series while camping in August!

Richard, you are encouragement personified! ! ! My novel series has not even been sent to an agent yet so I fear you'll have to read some other author's books in your cabin but it sounds like an awesome environment to read one!

Great verse, Susan....perfect 10! I suspect that sorrow and pain are somehow more community-rooted. Don't we tend to be selfish when we're happy? ? Great poem!

Thank you, my friend for the ten. I hope I write happy poems as much as I write sorrowful ones. Seems only fair to share both!

I think you have hit the nail to coffin, or in this case the wisdom to the pen. Art is most revealing when it is captured from a persons pain and anguish. Hemingway, Sexton, Plath made something relatable through their pain. Its a connection to our humanity. Without pain, their is no art, without art no spark of life. Wonderful work Susan.

Thank you for such a thought-filled comment! I must admit I like to see pain and suffering in fiction- they drive the plot! Poetry can give great moments to both pain and happiness. I must admit I like a piece that makes me burst out either laughing or crying.
