The Poets' Congress Comments

A terrific catalogue poem, one of the best I've read. One thought- you might want to vary the A's and The's at the beginning of the verses to make it a bit tighter and the flow, the tinest bit smoother.

Fantastic idea for a poem and some of the most vivid imagery I've read in years. This is a definitely a poem to come back to, and read over and over.Loved it!

Some very refreshing images in this - a teardropp in which blue ships are sinking - nice!

Enjoyable poem especially the middle verse! Well crafted!

I came here (by balloon!) expressly after reading Sherrie's comment on the Forum. Even though I want her to like MY poem best, this is both lovely and subtle. The narrative frames, though brief, are each delightfully addled AND express some real sense of poets and what a Poets' Congress might be like. Many of the images in the main section are wonderful, and I'm going to study the ones I don't 'get' immediately. I move we adopt this definition on Poemhunter!
