Asking for and receiving forgiveness is so important. Forgiving yourself is too. You are writing about some great topics. joan marie

Bravo! "Penance" is another challenging, yet well written poem. The rictameter looks hard to do, but you make it look very easy. Well done. Bravo!

Hi Sue,

This is another lovely rictameter. I love the subject and the poem flows beautifully. Your picture and presentation is beautiful too. These rictameters and the minute poems are my two favourites at the moment.

Warm regards.

Roisin

Allowing the aggrieved comes out to 11 syllables each time I read it
Fespecting should be respecting
I like the message of your rictameter

I enjoyed reading this poem, Sue. It has an excellent message, and you've conveyed it fluently. I thought a Rictameter had to have capitals at the beginning of each line, or does that vary? (Pardon my poetic ignorance!). Cheers. :)

    Jazh, you crack me up. As soon as I post, you review while I'm half way into editing and getting it all set up. LOL!!! But thanks SO much for bringing it up. Yes, each line must be capitalized. It's all complete now. You're so fast on the draw! Thanks so much for your great review. :-)) Sue

    Yeah...Look out, I'm quick! Some would say pre-emptive. I wrote my rictameter thingy, never having written one before....fortunately I've had a few kind reviewers correcting. Maths was never my forte. :)
