This is about your poem to your son - because there is no box to type into, on that page today.
I just want to say that I have a very young son, and also have all of the feelings that you wrote about. I am wondeering whether he will be much like me, or not, just as you seem to wonder in the last stanza! But mainly, we find each other so lovable ... it's amazing!
Thanks for your comments on some of my poems! I have been away from the computer, making a series of poems, and so I do not think you got an answer. I am enthusiastic about this website, but I often have little time to give to it.
Your poetry is very interesting to me: I will read more of it and talk with you. But I think it shall be a week or two weeks before time permits me to do so.
I will come again, and be more critical! I haven't read all of your poems yet. I can't do it today, because I have very little time with the computer; so I'm always too slow to do everything.
All my sonnets are about evolution, from the beginning of the Universe to the emergence of the divine spirit. This poem is about a non-supernatural version of the religious myth: to understand it, perhaps you need basic studies in 'comparative religion' and in the concepts of emergence and collectivity. I mean that it is not a poem which should be addressed to everybody! Instead, it is a personal expression of my own, which I have not made into a truly public piece of art. Most of my sonnets are easy to understand, I think; but if you can't follow this one, that is definitely my fault and I cannot apologise because ... some better poems will soon come out of this bad poem!
Thanks for the critique on Down. You're right, it does sound strange now that I look at it from another's perspective. However, it took me a few minutes to right, thus, I have little ambition to put too much effort into editing it. Thank you though.
