Warmth Is A Burden Comments

your words impart the warmth of poetry deep into my soul...........

The intimacy is so poignant…. some of your poems are so cinematic Sandra...

So classic. I bow before your talent in respecr... Jim

Astonishing imagery! Compact...........eloquent...........thoughtful indeed! 10+++

true...but a burden one loves to bear...'winning the landscape with poetry' is your usual trait, sandra 10

'you tilt my face to catch the amber drops, '...........poignant indeed!

Very powerful. I love the way you've combined personal (the subjective) feelings with landscape (the objective) near and distant. A true art.

To comment on a work which has already been judged outstanding...redundant. One thing...such spiralings! up, down, then up again. Utah got one, damned fine! ! poem! ! xxElysabeth

Wow, Sandra... you've 'hammered' out one great line after another! 'Words of gold, ' (to borrow a phrase from your poem) ... priceless, in fact! ! Brian

Your ability to tease feelings from closely woven words remains fascinating. I suspect there is more than a little bittersweet here, but your light always wins through in the end :) Best wishes. jack.

Great ilmagry displayed here Sandra in this most beautiful poem. A pure work of art, thankyou for sharing this beauty.---Melvina---

How skilfully you use the imagery of nature to convey a moment of warmth and intimacy. You never reveal too much, but leave the reader to imagine... This is the voice of a true poet. love, Allie xxxxxxxxxxxxx

beautiful images. i felt so naked reading this - as if you read my soul.

'My eyes record the image of that sound' -I like this phrase very much. A soul embracing poetry. Work of a refined mind.

really like this one. Trust it is an older one of yours. Like everything about it ~ essence, primarily. sjg

This poem is so beautiful, I'm at a loss for words. As always, imagery is incredibly rich and original. The third stanza stuns the reader with its beauty. Truly, your words open new worlds of visual and sensual experiences to the human mind!

well I'm a poetically warmed up to read more! I absolutely love the images you create, bravo! HBH

Sandra, this is a poem I could read over and over. (And did!) Your poetry has a soul, what more can I say...except that I have to read it once more. Warmest wishes, Justine.

And who could help feeling imbued with warmth after reading your poetry, Sandra! A rapid succession of images that leaves one speechless. There are those paintings over which one needs to ponder for hours - your poem reminds me of those masterpieces. With Love, Susie.

I had to reread this, then again, then again. Your pentameter is supple, your imagery is just perfect. This made my day better.
