Hi Poetess thanks for posting the Songbird Series. I enjoyed them all but my favorite was number two; I really appreciate its imagery and think it is close to perfection.

You write so well about the emotion of love but have you ever tackled other emotions like jealousy or anger. There is so much greed stupidity and unkindness in the world that any artist should feel the need to speak out. I would love to see you angry but not at me as this is meant as a constructive suggestion.

I think that after all of your kind words it would be difficult for me to get angry at you! :) I have made attempts at capturing other emotions, simply not very well done ones. I am just now beginning to expand. It just so happened my first little heartbreak coincided with the moment I began to take my writing seriously.

[livingpassion]

Thus, as my writing gained discipline, it was also tied up with the emotion that was consuming me at the time. I promise to show you some of the other as well with time. THANK YOU for your loyal support and constructive comments. I truly appreciate them! I would love to see more poetry from you!

as you read your eloquent words, i could easily recall my personal moments in which some of the memories i once used to soothe my loneliness now anger me in frustration and annoyance. thank you for sharing, and for reading them. reading someone's writing is not the same as having them read their own. a writer knows the inflictions and pauses desired.

[livingpassion]

Thank you! I think you well understand the emotion here.

This has been a great series...im learning,...im slow but I just like the way you say it. Your reading and your words sound like a song.Great stuff Stef.

[livingpassion]

Tsk, don't get me started on you calling yourself slow... but I appreciate the compliment!

Fitting, to look back in the last. Retrospection brings perspective.

"I would rather sit in silence than in flame." I wouldn't call this the darkest of the cycle. It's from a point of view informed by wisdom and knowledge of the flame, a more sober place, but not necessarily dark. The last of the Songbird Sonnets... so far...

[BlackJaPanther]

Yeah, the line has definitely become blurred. Good writing. Love WILL always call us. Eventually, we will find that the love that burned us wasn't as Pure as we thought. Like the lark, it is mortal. The Love we seek, however, we shall eventually behold...some of us in this lifetime and in a mortal partner.

GBU, MDJ.
