The Long Lavender Look Comments

To my Fav list now....5*****

Cont......Your poem describes an incident in which a man, in all his folly, was unable to read and understand what lady expected at the time from him. I'm sure you've had firsthand experience with it or have seen it up close. Such a wonderful flow with apt ending.

Wow...Women have been a mystery to man since they first met on Earth. Knowing what women desire is something no man has ever understood; they all keep guessing and only a few times succeed. Cont.....

The title of the poem attracts me to go through the poem. It is really a superb poem so touchingly delineated. I feel most impressive lines are....Foolish man how did you not see in her fine eyes the long lavender look of goodbye? Thanks for sharing.

A powerful poem shared. The goodbye look, can be quick and fast. Could become a memory ASAP.

Susan, I just read again this poem and appreciated again its vivid imagery. I read your response as well from my first reading of it in which you refer to the sound of lavender. Related you might enjoy (I hope) my poem On My Education as a Poet: The Sound of Language which I posted about four months after you posted this one. Comfort, comfort to your heart, Susan, and a good new year. -Glen
