On being philosophical
At the best of times
perhaps in some of the worst,
poetry claims us
I did think of ‘calms us,’ but settled here.

On being philosophical
At the best of times
perhaps in some of the worst,
poetry claims us
I did think of ‘calms us,’ but settled here.
I understand and agree.
A valued opinion ๐
I think claims us works best.
Thank you, yes. There is a sense of absorption , isn’t there?
All of the above say what I wanted to say. I do think poetry claims us and draws us into a different way of seeing things.
and even when those ways are not rose tinted, it’s so worth the view.
Glad U settled on [claims] rather than [calms].
Good. Looking back, thereโs no contest.
I like your choice to go with ‘claims’. Sometimes when I am writing quickly in my journal, I will write a ‘wrong’ word or misspell a word that fits so much better than the one I intended to write. ๐
Oh, Yes. That ol’ sub-conscious knows best ๐ก
