| Milforum Swamp Dweller  | What is your all-time favorite Frost poem? I'm torn between "The Rabbit Hunter" and "Brown's Descent", although I haven't made my way through the anthology yet.

| Tribunus Laticlavius | I personally like "nothing gold can stay" by frost What Say You What say you? Yes you, who won't tell. To you, I am nothing. But I am something to me. I, who wants to know, what you won't tell I'm asking you. Yes you. So... What say you?

| Tribunus Laticlavius | Appreciating the Frost poems. Did anyone notice my previous post regarding The Dymock Poets? It was addressed to Bulldog at the time, but it refers , among others, to what appears to be an important time in Frost's life. |

| Tribuni Angusticlavii | Are you ready? Ready for what ready for this just another Donkey original true and steady.... A reflection appears but why, who It sparkles and you wonder for who Who is this and what now, has time really gone this fast Deep down you peer, it sort of resembles something of a past Is it really, has it gone this fast, but what lies ahead you ask You leave the past knowing it brought you here and now you must finish this task Gather this past and carry it with you on this path that lies ahead Never dwelling on what cant be changed, it's already in your head You gather yourself stand back from this lake, breath deep Forward we go, through it all together even as we lay deep in sleep Brother and sister we all are; forever as we take this fearful leap In we jump feet first tall and proud no matter how far, together we will conquer this mighty feat For future, past, and present as you walk through this valley of the shadow of death fear no evil for I am with you and again we shall meet Please kindly note this is a rough and a work in progress it is not done yet or perhaps it is who knows only the present and the past....

| Tribuni Angusticlavii | Here is a short one I wrote not to long ago... Sometimes in life you wonder why Why has time passed me by Why did things happen that way Why did I not just speak up and say Why now has the time gone by Why do I wonder why Sometimes in life you wonder why |

| Tribuni Angusticlavii | Ok now for something from the sensitive side...hahahaha Her - Is it you maybe so you never know The simple existence of this worldly wonder is a marvel to behold Her mere presence makes the world slow makes everything seem to unfold Just knowing her existence gives you the persistence to define your existence Even the few moments you've spent are your most cherished, for instance You wish to see her sparkle, every day you wonder when again you will get to hold This worldly wonder this sparkle this princess this goddess maybe never, maybe that's life but all you needed was that one moment to behold To her by me  |
