A subtle and refined poem

Posted on Thu, 21 May 2020

A subtle and refined poem rich with elegant phraseology recalling and yearning for the realisation of an old promise (perhaps forgotten) "in renewed anticipation, suspended in the aspic of recollection."
Altogether enjoyable.

A seed growing in a congenial

Posted on Fri, 15 May 2020

A seed growing in a congenial environment will germinate and multiply if care is taken not to let it be smothered by weeds.  Similarly, good words and good deeds will flourish and spread if not strangled by selfishness. A sound, uplifting message...

Hi Rachel, catching up with reading after vainly trying to come up with something worthwhile to post and failing. Even Jessica seems to have lost her appeal.

Yet another poem that shows

Posted on Sat, 09 May 2020

Yet another poem that shows your knowledge and love of words, Rachel. The topic reminded me of the melodious cavatina in the film The Deer Hunter.

I have to come clean, Rachel,

Posted on Tue, 05 May 2020

I have to come clean, Rachel, and reveal that it was something you said in one of your comments that gave me the idea for this circumlocutory piece . I am not only like a squirrel but also as a thieving magpie: I tend to borrow or steal from...

A very poignant viewpoint

A very poignant viewpoint expressed with your usual verve. Mathematics of loneliness is just perfect.

Yes Claudine, even in those

Posted on Wed, 29 Apr 2020

Yes Claudine, even in those days, when Italy was not an unified country but an amalgam of independent states and foreign powers, Milan was a busy commercial city. But what aggravated the situation was that, as a result of troop movements...

Hi Rhiannon.

Hello again Rachel.
I replied to your query about half an hour ago but lately I noticed that notications reach my inbox long after the comments itself. I don't know if it is a general problem.

Best, Luigi x

Hi Rachel.

Posted on Sun, 26 Apr 2020

Hi Rachel.
We haven't yet established if it is a frog or a toad at the bottom of her garden.
As far as writing goes I just do it on impulse, as and when the Muse strikes. Having decided on a topic I start scribbling and see how it...
