Almost Home Poem by Sandra Fowler

really beautiful exposition of poetic imagery.in the plexus time space & distance, well textured along with symmetry, the theme suggests the sense of ingenuity expressed in the poem - the acceptance of valentine from a souless bird & finally trans-assimilation of gestures suigeneris. congrats

well said piece of poetry.

This poem is as beautiful as the beautiful red bird, The Cardinal, when in flight it soars or just perches on the limb of a tree. Such beautiful imagery. mm. :)

wow, very nice, beautiful, and good job on it!

There are lots of interesting comments added to this poem and most worthy of them I must say. I loved this poem, it had a calm and understated quality about it. Upon re-reading it you gleaned so much more on the second read. It has a very delicate and soothing effect, almost like I was lazing on a sun-lounger watching the scene of the bird across the skies.... Just lovely. HG: -) xx

Such a simple trigger - a Valentine's card - and yet what a beautiful bouquet of poetic flowers grow from it. Your 'soulless' red bird is particularly evocative 'And yet I choose it for my metaphor.' Sandra, you and metaphor are like Domingo and Pavarotti. You sing beautifully together. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Your keen ability to take a simple idea or theme and create a firework display of imagery around it & within it, is truly facinating...Sandra, this, as always...is yet another fine example of your superior artistry. FjR
