Sponsored by Workhorse, Lexington Poetry Month is an easy to use
platform for poets to publish and share their work in an attractive
way. The community is supportive and diverse, commenting and
encouraging one another throughout June. Money we raise goes
to maintaining the cost of the website and publishing the yearly
anthology. Our goals are to provide every poet (~150) a copy of
the anthology, lower printing costs, and expand opportunities
offered during Lexington Poetry Month, such as featured readings
and poetry workshops.
Her memory tugged at her as she reached back to corral those days when things made sense as angels sang and hydrangea bloomed along the edge of her soul.
I love the use of the word corral– especially with the angels who sang.
Writing this comment made me catch a little wordplay! CHORAL/corral.
Those last two lines take the cake.
Thank you for your kind comment. And thanks for catching that wordplay, I may work on part 2.
There is very deep meaning in your poem.
Thank you for reading and for your kind comment.
This one makes me feel bittersweet, longing for those simpler days when, as you said, things still made sense.
Thank you for reading and for your insight. I appreciate it.
I too like the use of corral. I also like hydrangea!
Thank you for your kind comment. Hydrangea!!
Sweet: hydrangea bloomed
Thank you for your kind comment.
Equally tangible and meditative recollection. Memory contrasts to present
It is always good to hear a reader’s perspective. I appreciate your kind comment.
“When things made sense” – ah, yes, those days! Lyrical as always! Last two lines really beautiful!
Thank you for your kind comment and encouragemet. “Those were the days, my friend. We thought they’d never end.”
