That’s great, Jane, & the rhyme/slant rhyme beautifully done!

“Bourbon, Neat” is too rich in imagery! Love it!

^ it's a favorite of mine, too!

This would be a good text pairing with a study of Brave New World.

Your wrist poem is a metaphor for life! Nice reading, Jane.

This scene has an energy and wit that reminds me of a Jane Austen romance

Flint & flame indeed! What shimmering prose, Marly!

Lovely reading, Jane. I am so glad you read, "Old Dog". I have often been, "inches from Paradise without a clue." So nice to see you again.

Exquisite and haunting!

Foster Child—powerful, unsettling, very moving. Thanks for reading it, Sally.

Thanks for such a great reading! Marly, such an amazing proposal scene & evocation of time/place. Sally, such great poems, from history to motherhood from pantoum to sonnet & ambitious sequence! It’s a pleasure to hear you read.

Jane, a pleasure & privilege to hear your fiery poetic conflagration. You may be my favorite poet of the Apocalypse -- and definitely the wittiest! Such skill & heart. Thank you!

As always, I’m enchanted by your poetry, Sally. Thanks for the reading! I thoroughly enjoyed hearing all three of you gifted writers share your work.

Thank you, Marly, Jane, and Sally!

Thank you all for doing this today—a lovely way to send the week and start the weekend.

Thank you so much, this was wonderful!

I am putting together a few readings already. Robbi Nester, rknester@gmail.com
