Interesting, informative and well put notes, Sue.
Your poetry seems to keep gaining depth and feeling, apart from your already well-mastered use of meter and rhyme.
Brilliant flow and wording here.
Wonderful observations of the arts and their uplifting and thought-provoking effect on you. Profound ending!
Dammit, not allowed to give you a sixer! ******
Love, Ray xx

    Ray, instead of your lovely sixer, I'll take that word "profound"! LOL!! If I get anymore introspective than I am, I'll fold into myself! LMAO!! Thanks so much for this great review! Big hugs, Sue

    Don't you dare 'fold into yourself', Sue. Effing hell, what a talent and sensitive person we'd miss! Write on! Ray xx

Well, Sixteezkid, you get my last six star. This is such a deep and well thought out poem. One that makes a person think all the way through it, as good poetry should do. I enjoyed the iambic pentameter with the rhyme scheme. Very good word choices and usage. Great imagery. Sharon

    Sharon, I really did "feel" this one. I suppose that's why I put my long author's notes in. One cannot imagine our world without creativity and our need take have our senses filled. I'm very honored to receive your last sixer, as they are a precious commodity! So glad you enjoyed this poem. Means so much. Thank you for your most generous review. With warmest regards, Sue

How very true, personally I can never survive in a world without art or books. There is just too much of the artists vitality in their work to simple cast it aside. Thanks for a great read!

    It's unimaginable, isn't it? Take away creativity and we'd be doomed. So glad you enjoyed this poem. Thank you for your very kind review. With regards, Sue

This is a lovely poem, Sue - I enjoyed it, particularly the subject matter...very worthwhile! I would dispute whether oboes complement anything at all though! lol I like "Such master strokes of balanced acts" - evocative. Cheers. :)

    AH!!! I ALMOST wrote cello in there..I swear. But, I was thinking of Mozart again. Know what? I'm going to change it to cello just for you! Thanks for your great review. (cello it is) - Sue

    I'm truly honoured. Oboes are an abomination of nature...well, you know what I mean. There is a deep and abiding hatred between string and woodwind players, although both hate brass. Musicians are a dysfunctional lot!

    Bitch, bitch, bitch.....whine, whine, whine! LOL!!!

    I LOVE the OBOE and the clarinet!! Hell, I love 'em all!! Strings, horns, you name it!

    But, I do like the cello in my poem better. Thanks for that!

The world would be very dismal indeed with no emotion or expression. I have not seen those movies, but I understand the implications. You have written this piece well. Thanks for sharing this with us.
