Very enjoyable Andrew, especially ‘The Tortoise and the Hare’.
Thanks Norma. If you go to the shorts feed and scroll down a while, you will also encounter the anti-haiku you wrote that Coats used as an example in her guide to the form.
Thank you for the note on my infamous Haiku (how not to write one) 🙂
Lovely range; from the very nicely done and read children’s fable, to Michelangelo wrestling with art and death, to life’s inevitable choices. Thanks, Louis
thanks for watching, Louis.
Three great readings, and the visual accompaniments are superbly done. The images chosen for Michelangelo’s sonnet are particularly appropriate.
Admirably done, ABB! All three are visually striking and aurally appealing… you lift the art of poetry to beautiful heights. Thank you!
