Ordinarily I don’t publish so much poetry at Theoria-press, and instead try to provide mostly essays with an odd poem or sonnet occasionally interspersed among them.
Such a beautiful sonnet my friend. Happy morning to you! I have so many things to do today and places to go I am happy that I was able to see this and read this first although my Bible reading was an awesome fortification for the day too! Was reading in Hebrews a little on how Christ became Incarnate for the Joy that was set before Him- US!!!! Yay!!! It is so incredible to even get a partial glimpse of the Immense Love God has for us!!! From the beginning it amazes me how can I ever be despondent? Live and peace to you friend
"Ordinarily I don’t publish so much poetry at Theoria-press, and instead try to provide mostly essays with an odd poem or sonnet occasionally interspersed among them. But the Muse’s visits have outstripped my ability to keep pace with prose pieces so readers who prefer essays should peruse the archives of this site, which are replete with them. This is an actual Petrarchan sonnet so it will not be *proceeded* by my usual exculpatory disclaimer about having departed from the paradigmatic form."
Yes, it was just a formal distinction, nothing artistic. I felt you would want hear about it for the sake of a beautiful introduction. Maybe it was even my Muse prompting me in this Summer season. Dog days :)

I did the same thing today (lazy copy-paste on my part) but I thought of you and immediately put it right

This is a loving gesture, Max. Thanks very much.
