New reply from Susan Katz
<p>Thou has written a very "medieval" poem with language that might be heard in a Shakespearean play. I feel the emotional commitment in your poem and there are some lovely images (My kingdom rains (reins?)yet the sun shines, flowers bloom yet it is not spring…)</p>
<p>I do like your ending, which I feel is a bit serious, a bit tongue in cheek. Some very lovely things here and I suspect, were you to decide to, you could write some very meaningful and impressive, contemporary poetry.</p>
<p>Thank you so much for sharing, Susan</p>
