Welcome to the 358th Virtual Poetry Circle!
Remember, this is just for fun and is not meant to be stressful.
Keep in mind what Molly Peacock’s book suggested.
Look at a line, a stanza, sentences, and images; describe what you like or don’t like; and offer an opinion. If you missed my review of her book, check it out here.
Today’s poem is from Gretchen Marquette, read by Kurt Milberger:
Painted Turtle
What do you think?
I think there’s a lot going on here, and their thoughts and actions regarding the turtle say so much about who they are.
Hmm… not sure I can “decipher” this one (although I have some ideas), but I admire the vivid imagery.
