Like The Surgeon's Knife

[billy]

a nicely done unobtrusive piece of verse.
i like the way you use Camus (pronounced cameu)
to rime with too.

i like the idea of thoreau on the right and camus on left. for me on the chest is the right place for keats to be.
he seems to be the master of the heart. the right for the moralist author and left for novelist
if i have a nit it would be that a little prune would help in making what you have stand out.
of course it would have to be done as to not interfere with the rhyme scheme. it flows well and carries the rhyme scheme well.

my fave lines are;

Led us through nature’s eyes
toward redemption and hope.
The tree would help us cope.
My left, Albert Camus;
on my chest, John Keats too,
who wrote of love sublime.
Still yearned for in our time.

thanks for th eread as always.
