This is a beautifully written kyrielle sonnet. I like this style of writing. Beautiful presentation. Nice photo choice to compliment your words as well.

Many people do this type of alcohol, drink and I'm sure they do get a little bit tipsy. Your poem talks about what happens if and when a person drinks too much.

Beautiful work with the Kyrielle. Your repeating lines ar lovely. "Yet in the night the wolf doth stalk" reminds us of the false prophets, out there to trip us. Great imagery with "How many jars would teardrops fill." I imagine it would be many. You put great thought into this. judi

This poem has a unique rhythm that pulls you along, it's impossible to stop before you read the last line!
"How many tears a jar will fill," reminiscent of the drunken 'crying jag.'
Our first love is for she who gave us birth.
A neat line, "God's messengers, the wind will talk," how many times have we heard voices in the wind?
Good use of an unusual poetic form!

I've just about got my head above water in this one, Roy. Your notes did help me to understand this. Written very nicely in the kyrielle sonnet form.

The dark and not being able to see what is ahead or on either side, scares me to the point I won't go out at night unless my hubby drives me. But I think you've used the dark and not being able to see as a metaphor of the evil that lurks in the darkness of hell. The wolf is always there, in the shadows waiting. This is quite a scary poem, my friend, well written and well told. Your authors notes are equally scary! Well done, my friend. :)) Sandra xx

A very well crafted poem using a type of Sonnet. I love the repeating phrase about the wolf stalking. It does hover about, doesn't it.
A very sweet verse about first feeling love from your mother. That was a nice touch.
As always, the Bible references at the end edify us.

Have a blessed week,
Rhonda

This work has reached the exceptional level

I read a different Roy in this poem. Yes, based on Bible verses but I couldn't work out the illustration? Roughly speaking - tears over beers? Leaving drunk and being attacked by wolves? Correct me if I have it backwards :-) xx

A melancholy and scary write Roy, we are afraid of the dark because to takes away one of our major senses for survival and not being able to see inhibits us. At least you have belief that supports you in times of trouble, love Dolly x
