I like how you wrote your poem and it is well written. I am experimenting with poetry and trying to master the iambic pantameter. I can write a tyburn poem. Your poem is very good.

What a lovely poetry format, and used so beautifully! I loved every word, and it resonates with me deeply, with my beliefs -- we are connected, in every way.
"At such infinite immenseness,
pulled outward into this denseness so unprepared."
Exactly. (I have no sixes left this week, and this is so very worthy of that rating. Incredible imagery evoked, and a beautiful presentation...)

Good job in showing the beauty of the nature, such as sun sinking, the granite rocks and the standing fox.

The starry lights include the beautiful shining stars and the aglow fox eyes etc.

Thanks for sharing

OMG John. You are really amazing. I've tried so many form.of poetry on this site and never heard of a florette. You have handled this so brilliantly. And your subject matter is a personal favorite. Thanks for writing this. It's something I needed right now. Not feeling well and this brightened my spirits. I may try one.
Luv&stuff,

Hi Jim,
This is a good entry for the florette Potlatch.
This shows the beauty and connectedness of nature and it's beings.

It was a little difficult to get off the tongue as I read it aloud. That being said I felt forces circling around me. This was a great piece and you did very well.

    Mia, perhaps the words shared were meant for the heart and soul not so much the mind. Thanks much!

You have a delicious use of words here that makes your poem fun to read out loud. Love the image of the grey fox, he is almost like a watcher,observing all. The image of the stars coming out and the night sky appearing is vivid and brings forth feelings and emotions.

This is a great poem as it catches the mood that is in the air. I feel the darkness in its wonder. Our world is a mystery that can spark a light upon our souls in the vast open skies of darkness and light.
