  1. What great month for you!

    Your poem in The Tower reminds me of this quote from Yeats I just read : “in as nearly as possible the language we thought them in, as though in a letter to an intimate friend.” And again: “If I can be sincere and make my language natural, and without becoming discursive, like a novelist, and so indiscreet and prosaic, I shall, if good or bad luck make my life interesting, be a great poet; for it will no longer be a question of literature at all.”

  2. I omitted the first part:”We should write out our thoughts,”

    Any how, apparently it is Yeats’ birthday, and someone posted that comment. When I read your poem On Being Real, I thought of this quote.

    Again, your perseverance and talent are manifest, for several months, not just this month.

    1. Well, Donna, two and a half months later, here’s a reply…(hey, some say that all time is relative anyway, right?)…

      Sorry for the delay, but thank you very much for your kind comments.

      I like the Yeats’ quote in reference to my poem “On Being Real.” I must admit that I don’t always achieve such a clear sighted, precise accuracy with my poetry, as I do tend, at times, to drift off into the world of yellow flowery language.

      There is, of course, a time and a place for everything. Sometimes it’s best to strike straight to the core and say exactly what is meant, while other times it can be quite fun to meander off the well worn path and play around with exotic words for awhile.

      Hope you are well. Cheers!

    1. Thank you for the kind sentiments, B.H.I. I appreciate you stopping by and checking things out here at 17Numa. It’s been a fun and rewarding experience so far the first couple of years publishing. Much more hopefully lies ahead in 2016. Cheers!
