Peredhil Posted June 4, 2003 Report Posted June 4, 2003 I think I like this a little better each time I read it. It captures the simplicity of a really excellent ricepaper brush painting by a Zen master.
Wyvern Posted June 7, 2003 Report Posted June 7, 2003 Being a big fan of form, I really love the interesting structure of this piece. The form of the poem seems to compliment the imagery, giving life to the image of the single droplet by toning the words and lines down to their bare minimums. The seperation of the line "Soul of Life" is also effective, as in giving it it's own seperate stanza it seperates the thought and renders it more important. Nice poem Justin. :-)
