But I do like the skipping stones simile and the way the poet follows it with rising and falling images, almost as if to distract me from the image of the stone sinking after the last skip.Jeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01374498643286099244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5450424838277339646.post-20984633803502370962009-11-10T06:34:40.887-05:002009-11-10T06:34:40.887-05:00Jenners: I'm so glad that your definition of ...Jenners: I'm so glad that your definition of a poem has expanded. I think that was the point of these circles -- at least in part. There are so many ways to write poetry and they can do so much. <br /><br />I just don't think people realize how diverse poetry is. I think like any other genre there is something for everyone's reading tastes.Serenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04745809545249574387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5450424838277339646.post-87901314634425586382009-11-09T22:15:59.231-05:002009-11-09T22:15:59.231-05:00I really enjoyed this poem!

I'm probably not making sense with that comment. I think what I'm trying to say is that my definition of poem and what a poem can be is expanding!
