Re: An Ode to Sylvia (User Rating: 1 ) by Silent-No-More on Saturday, 25th December 2004 @ 01:46:05 PM AEST (User Info | Send a Message) Oh! I cannot tell you how delighted I am to find this! I am emphatically a Plath fan. And this - is a fine, fine tribute to her. (Trust me when I say this - to acknowledge that you've done her justice, is perhaps the most the powerful praise that I can offer....) Gosh, I could just ramble on and on and on here... of her, of this, of her work and the connection I feel to it. I have written of her myself - and will continue to do so I'm sure (I don't think I'm yet satisfied... no, I know I'm not) - with what I've written thus far. The nearest I've come is to honor her via a write that began of Anne Sexton... I feel as if I understand this and the inspiration that prompted you to begin this piece... though, I feel rather bold in saying as much. I'd guess that we feel similarly with regard to her, confessional poets in general, and... (dare I say it) even Mr. Hughes. I could go on... but, I'm sure I've said enough to let you know that you've made another Sylvia fan quite happy today. Well, well done! ~SNM~ Re: An Ode to Sylvia (User Rating: 1 ) by SocialMisfit on Saturday, 25th December 2004 @ 09:15:58 PM AEST (User Info | Send a Message) ok havent read much Plath writeing but wow this may well start me into reading more of it i liked this alot codo's.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
