Your praises are, did you know Ely , instrumental in my sharing of such 'lovely' and interesting research. To me, on many occasions, you are 'inspirational' . Abs tips his head to yours, always.

Of Wordsworth's Phantom of Delight ~ the poetry is sublime.  Cannot be matched.  Reminds me of the 'perfect woman' of even biblical accent.  It appears he realizes he has a woman 'full circle' complete and by his verse he is ecstatic - of ecstasy ~  This was a beautiful poem and thank you for bringing for review ...ah to have verse written of one such as this just touches my heart to bliss.  You're a delight Aba, so fresh in your leaning - you share such lovely and interesting research. Pure Inspiration ~  ~ Elyse

I only hope we get inspiration from Wordsworth to be so very appreciative of our wives. The only parallel I find is in sir Wiley's love for you.

I revel in Wordsworth and will certainly talk on other Romantic poets as well. Thank you so much for your valued readership.

...it seems somehow that this sort of love is lost to the 'modern' world...moon

It is so telling of his love for his wife with his rendition of the poem Abanerjee. Excellent. I truly loved the poem and I want to tell you that love only becomes love for a man when he truly understands his woman..wouldn't you say??

I am fascinated with the writing of his wife. It says much for taking care
of one self on alllevels fromthe physical to the spiritual.

I was quite enamored with the use of phantom! The meter, rhyme and cadence of the poem was nothing short of spectacular! I think his use of phantom is in regard to the spirituality for he refers to angelic! But I liked entertaining an apparition as for there may be only one like her in this context! I loved the explanation because it enhanced the the magnificence of the poem! Your essays so radiate! sam
