Have a pleasant weekend.

I love the rhythm of this poem, and the dreamlike state it puts me in as I read it. It's wonderful how you can write so that the reader enters your thought stream, seamlessly, and is taken on a journey. I know that takes some work to achieve.

Poor runner. Your poem made me smile.

This poem is a bit depressing. How about a well worn and well loved car, treasured and pampered despite all the dings and the difficulty or impossibility of repair? Someday, though, it is all photos and memories, isn't it?

2012-05-07T16:54:33.909+02:00

I'd like to fall asleep nodding over my desk, with a pleasant dream like that. This poem gives me the sense of the wavelike feeling of dreams, and how we feel like we've traveled.

Good Morning! It sounds like a wonderful day ahead, rain or shine, with frog friends and robin friends...

Hahaha....shoelace places aren't identical, but they perform the same function.

i.e. All shoelace places are holes.

(It's like a crazy logic problem...)

i don't get it. how could all shoe lace places...

2012-04-21T18:01:31.736+02:00

i don't get it.
how could all shoe lace places be the same?

if you mean holes for the laces,
there are ten on the old pair
and twelve on the new.

is this girl talk?
as in: like a place to buy shoes?

my wife isn't here right now
so she can't help me.

she would know the answer
and surely point out my error.

All shoelace places are the same. So smart!

"smelling color, cooked well, dandy and polite enough..." Your dreams sound enjoyable and worthwhile! "great adventure motion coastin'"

I like how the language and the rhythm of this poem matches the sketchy quality of dreaming- slow and moving, all at the same time.

2012-03-25T20:58:30.532+02:00

This reminds me of sitting on the beach, eyes closed, and then opening them- how brilliant and important are the waves, the sky, the water, the happy shouts, and the children.

I love the feeling this poem evokes, with images both languid and vital, and the way light and temperature and activity is interwoven.

Hi Jack,

Light you can dream on is a beautiful concept, and even more beautiful to experience.

Hi Jack,

This is a great rhythm, to match the action of the poem.

2012-03-08T05:08:06.972+01:00

I love this poem; there is mystery and power in the words, sounding like the sea with its interrupted rhythms, and changing patterns, sunlight, reflected. There is an undertow that draws you in.

I enjoy the randomness of this poem and the relevance, culminating in the final, ultimate question.

don't i have a right to see it?

2012-03-04T19:43:39.579+01:00

I have books everywhere, in many piles. I don't think I can give them up. I now search for illustrated editions over a hundred years old. I hope they never disintegrate or fail to please. The internet archive includes so many wonders, and so many abysmally scanned books from google, sans illustrations or quality imaging. I don't think those electronic gizmos will help us to write; only distract us from what we want to say.

I enjoy your verses in this poem, and those "electronic read things" going cha, cha cha, chanting in unison like the mechanical mice they practically are... Kind of scary how they take over, just like those piles of books.

Yet, I am probably on the verge of purchasing a kindle, or a tablet device... Eek.

I think the dolphins need our apologies, and this one will do, simple and sincere.

The "robots are good cha cha cha" is steadily becoming the newest dance craze.

Books in piles, always!
