Appreciated the meticulous review of esteemed poetess Susan. Superb! !
Those last 14 lines absolutely should be memorialized on the front page of every literature textbook in the world! The metaphor is stunning and draws the reader inside where he seeks poems that speak to each other about grand journeys over all the frontiers of human thought and desire and endeavor. Daniel, you never cease to amaze me with your word palette and your idea palette blended together by that fabulous pen of your! 10+++++++++++
When I saw all those empty POEMHUNTER sites, all set up and then abandoned by people who live in my hometown, I just had to write a poem to deal with my disappointment. But as I wrote it changed from being a querulous, accusing poem to this tongue-in-cheek celebration. I lite a candle rather than cursing the darkness! !
Susan, I'm totally in agreement with Dillip on this one. Personally, it's always been such a great pleasure to read both your poetry and your commentary.The same holds true for me re: Daniel Brick!
What a wonderful description of missed poetic opportunity, dead silence cannot be kept in order without a full house, great poem

What a marvellous poem. Any revisit to these pages remind us of the loss that Daniel is no more!
...And that his spirit is here guiding and inspiring us all!
