The Rush Is On! Comments

Ah, yes, repetition is a powerful tool! Parallelism adds atmosphere as well as emphasis. Now as far as books are concerned- - - - - buy 'em, borrow 'em, steal 'em but READ the dickens out of them! ! ! ! ! .

Exactly, a book is the real confidant, a treasure trove for the ardent lovers, precious drop thank you dear poet, sure to read the great work and review, thanks

A wonderful piece by a talented writer. Thanks for sharing, Clarence

Congratulations Clarence on having authored a valuable book! !

oops! i just noticed right in the Poet's Notes. i know that is a slip up. but, at age 76, you are allowed one once in a while. :) :)

well, Clarence, i'm all for reading; writing is ok too! and a book is a good idea to spread your information and beliefs. on the cover: if it is a sailboat, the sail is down (as well as the mast, i believe) and the oars are out. i'd call it a rowboat, but you Canadians are funny people. ha ha! i'd also use adivices, not advises, for a noun. but, again, maybe you of the Queen's realm may spell it differently. advise is the verb here in the U.S. i'm not sure if the plural of the noun advice is ever advices or always advice, the same as the singular form. language is a tough subject to master...........! and even BRI is NOT a master of it! ! ! good luck with the book. i'll find another of your generously-offered poems for July's showcase. i will not put this one in unless you tell/ask me to put it in.........as is or with any changes. bri :)

Reading and writing improve skills and learning abilities to manage life. Reading books and reading poems both are nice qualities. Reading helps in believing self and Lord. Very interesting poem is shared really. Nicely penned.10
