Almost a year now since I came here to BookRix and I still hadn't read any of your work. I'm glad this was the first! If you could somehow condense this down without losing any of its inherent magic it would make a great back cover story for your books :) I don't read(or write) as much poetry as I did when I was younger but an appreciation is unnecessary whendealing with such passion. Well done and kudos for allowing us this inner glimpse. RMH
Because of the personal nature of this book, I was hesitant to post it. Y'all have completely made my day! Thank you so much!
Dust Motes and Polar by Rain are wondrous poems. Dust Motes has an Ecclesiastes feel, wrapped in a touch of lament.
Polar by Rain creates visions of northern lights.
Overall, the entire collection of poems are an amazing collection of emotion framed by jeweled words.
I'm not surprised by the beauty of your poetry. I've always thought your were a very gifted writer. Exceptional job. Robynn
Though I experienced each and every poem with each and every word. God gave me the gift of being visual in all I hear and see. To say I love the rain is an understatement! Thanks for allowing me to experience yet another rainfall!Thank you and Good Luck! :) I look forward to reading all your works!
I've begun to read this collection...
Your range of writing skill is vast, Stevie. I've only gotten several pages in; several poems, and I'm a bit flabbergasted at your ability to pull the most wonderful word or phrase out of thin air to evoke mood and sentiment.
"My mask is hardening,
melting together with bone...."
Wow.
I will finish with great anticipation and return to comment again...with my jaw hanging open, no doubt.
Exceptional!
Mary - I'm so glad you liked it. I had debated putting it up, since it isn't a fresh work and it is rather dark, but I know many people have felt similarly.
Secretrose - Eden is one of my favorites, too... There's something thrilling about reading your own piece and seeing the world you created. :) I'm so glad you liked it.
