The poem and the images all play a part, but the writing is exceptional - and rarer than the other elements.

I have not read Mary Oliver before and in doing so, and enjoying it much, I am overwhelmed by the awareness that there are so many other poets and poems that I have yet to experience and perhaps never will. It fills me with exhilaration to know this, but also saddens me since I can not hope to accomplish all that my mind would truly wish. I could weep.<BR/>November is the perfect metaphor for this eternal struggle.<BR/><BR/>KatKat Mortensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877694888419628533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917331337767835985.post-70951189428993743532008-11-02T09:47:00.000-05:002008-11-02T09:47:00.000-05:00It's very difficult to write anything after one of...It's very difficult to write anything after one of your very eloquent pieces of writing, yours is a hard act to follow!
