A I respect the delicacy of your opinion about liberty and the style you describe this statue. For me, the Last stanza is the best part. Good luck Good luck.
An interesting, enjoyable and fun piece; yes, like many Americans, I knew it was a gift crafted by Bartoli; in fact, the statute's face is that of Bartoli's mother - how's that for trivia? IMHO, this piece would magnificantly shine from some editing - for me, punctuation is the polish on the gem of one's writing. -Joe Breunig, Reaching Towards His Unbounded Glory
A beautiful description of the mammoth statue, standing proud and erect in the quiet waters of Hudson river! It is indeed an awe inspiring sight. Yes this symbol of liberty is dressed from head to foot and never liberated from the' bondage of an apparel' as many of the cine models are! Enjoyed the twist in the last stanza! ! Superb! !
Have always loved the Statue of Liberty. My grandparents all came over from Mierto, Sicily and landed on Ellis Island. Their names are in the book there. Your poem touched my memory's heart and the gentle humor made me smile. Thank you for sharing. RoseAnn
You have a different style of writing and its really wonderful. I love the humour part, really helps make your poem stand out. Personal thoughts in the poem makes you a very awesome poet.
