Fear not dear ones. The dirty dog is still an unmitigated swine. Fancy telling all of you that I called his poetry adolescent angst.
The cad - I NEVER SAID THAT!!!Actually RD these are pretty good. I especially like the first ones, as I am a fan of understated poetry with a lot of repitition. ------------------ There is only one kiwidoc, accept no substitutes STANDARD OPERATING PROCEEDURE www.judyhope.co.uk [This message has been edited by kiwidoc (edited 06-29-2001).] [This message has been edited by kiwidoc (edited 06-29-2001).] |

Waluin, he actually used that quote in his story! Great to see another Tennyson lover I'll sing for him Cloudy if you think that will make a difference (Seb will probably be thinking more along the lines of a striptease I guess ) Oh well, I'll get him to give in yet...

To clarify - by repetition I mean use of a line or a phrase repeated within a poem to add symmetry and continuity to it, and also to strengthen its emotive power. Used clumsily it is trite, cliched and can kill a piece. However used skillfully , like Rudy did in his first poem, it is very effective. I wrote this tonight, with a lot of help from RD who has been really good at getting me to write, encouraging me as I do and helping me with the rewrites. Thanks Muttly, you are a star and I OWE you As you can see I use repitition as one of the strongest tools in this poem. The Dance Silently they sit and shyly watch The shadows waver on the white washed walls. Shadows dance like moths around the Flicker of the fragrant candle flame. Slowly drawing ever closer to The lure of lovely light and warmth And the certainty of fire That will burn away their wings To wisps of silver ash Blown away upon the gentle winds. Nervously they sit and softly talk Words that weave a pattern in the scented air Words that dance around the brightness of Their fragile hopes of light and love Slowly drawing ever closer to The lure of loving, and of warmth And the possibility of fire That will burn away their hearts To wisps of silver ash Blown away upon the gentle winds. ------------------ There is only one kiwidoc, accept no substitutes STANDARD OPERATING PROCEEDURE www.judyhope.co.uk [This message has been edited by kiwidoc (edited 06-29-2001).] |
