Perils Of Pearls Comments

What a beautiful poem Wanda. I'm shocked to see I'm mentioned! Wow! What an honor. Aside from the mention of my name, I really do think this poem. I love the way you've described the old poetry and poets......very nice. I'm sorry I missed this when you posted it! Sincerely, Mary

Images to die for: 'caviar lipstick, ' 'language lords.' It's a real pity that poetry, as well as the other arts, is so dominated by elitists. The most we can hope for is that the things we write, or paint, or the music we create, gets noticed by someone, somewhere. I certainly noticed your fine work here. Good job.

Wow, Wanda... your point is brilliantly made! Today's poets don't get the recognition they deserve (including the three you've mentioned) . An exceptional write, one of which I hope the 'snobs' take notice of! Brian
