I personally don't know a sonnet from sorbet. However, fifteen interlinked sonnets of such touching expertise make this piece outstanding in every way. Great job. :-)

Thank you so very much Ric for a wonderful review.
Comment from Righteous Riter
You gave the reader a double dose and some of the Heroic sonnet. Good end rhyming and perfect rhyming. Good description and alliteration. Good story telling. I think I'll take a nap behind this :). Great job and although this is a long piece, it managed to hold my attention from start to finish.

Gungalo my friend,
EXCEPTIONAL for sure. Wish I had a sixer. I must say in skimming your Portfolio I don't believe I've ever seen so many exceptional ratings. All deserved, I'm confident of that.
This is some soliloquy!
You got me with this...tehelet?. Couldn't even find it in my dictionary. I just HAD to include a few quotes...but the entire work is superb!
...they streak in silky streams of cobalt swirls....
...You see I know that fantasy is real,
it's just another way to move about;
emotions then can scream in Braille to feel,
and love will recognize it with no doubt....
...Such music sweet in stillness wafts on high
and I have learned to sit and ponder much;
...for nothing said will ever come undone. ..
...Its promise now to me is understood,
contentment comes to those who knew it would.
Boy am I impressed and especially glad to know such a creative and talented individual. Obviously you are in love with poetry and the best words used in just the right places.
Fondly, Rebecca

Wow you are keeping up!!! LOL. Tehelet is a Hebrew word for a special color of blue!!! It has a history all it's own that is amazing but that's another story. Glad you like this you and truly, it is me. In love with the love of my life, oh yes, and he inspires poetry in me like crazy. So glad you like this one you. A long write. Most of mine don't take over ten minutes. LOL. Thought I was going blind by the end of this ... 5 hrs. 12 mins. straight out ( with a break here and there). Love your review you!!!!!
-
I'll add that word to my lexicon. If you did that in just over five hours you have me beat. I think mine took about 17 hours. LOL. WTG
-
LOL verse for verse, it's fun ... once in a while!!!
Comment from Blu Rider
A balance of form and content perfectly reflecting the subject: a state of inner quietude which, from personal experience, can only be reached by a stepping back in mind from the travails of the day. To be able to write in this fashion requires deep philosophical insight coupled with a meditative view; the peaceful and persistent harmony which prevails from start to finish in this piece stems directly from the unique voice of this poet. It is one which I very much admire.

Oh my gosh, you did it!!! You read it and I am so pleased you did. The length of such a form is truly daunting for the average person here, me thinks. A wonderful review of it, Blu. So glad you like it for it is totally me!!!

My first for sure. Guess you could say I wanted folks to know me right up front. LOL. Glad you liked it and can't believe you found and read it. YOu sure you liked it?
-
LOL. How could I not love it? It is all about being, and maybe something about being you.
-
I am trying to submit the next chapter but I'm not on the time thing. I also went in and deleted a lot of unnecessary things,. I took a long look at it and whether it advanced the story. So I'm on cue the others now, I think.
-
That's a good thing. Order, gotta have some order. LOL.
-
Ordering the chaos is for a lifetime. You can always take a day off because the chaos will be no worse that it was the day before.
-
I don't live in chaos ya know. I live in a blissful state of mind.
-
I live in the time space between a sneeze and a cough. Could be same person or two persons. And yes that is random. But I know how time works.
-
Dang guy, time doesn't even wear a watch!!!!
-
That's true, And as mu daughter told me after she dreamed it, dead men don't wear watches. That's a great title for something I think. Just have never used it except it is a line in one of the books I have not yet published.

It is an amazing piece of literature but it does take quite some time to read. i keep getting lost in thought as i reflect on something deep and meaningful.

Thank you for your persistence. It is long and if you think reading it is something, try writing one. LOL. Thought I would go blind before I finished it. But it was well worth it to be able to say I had written one. Thank you so much for taking the time.
