I've always felt that poetry, at it's highest, is an observational artform, so that when I encounter such "noticings" of the kind delivered with the kind of musicality that Matthew employs, it immediately becomes a GREAT thing in my life.
Today's poem is a really great thing. And your commentary, as always, is filled with such patient solicitude. I wonder how you can say you've been trying to rediscover tenderness when all your words are so soft, dripping with it.
