"Shadows of shadows passing, It is now 18.31 and as always, I am absorbed
with the delicate thought. It is how poetry has indefinite sensations. To which end music is an essential,
since the comprehension of sweet sound is our most indefinite conception. Music when combined with a
pleasurable idea is poetry. Music without the idea is simply music. Without music or an intriguing idea,
colour becomes pallor, man becomes carcass, home becomes catacomb and the dead are for but a moment,
motionless". (Edgar Allan Poe)
Welcome
to The Sky Fire Poetry Website .
My name is Mairi Tognin and I
invite you to share my visual and written thoughts. I was very surprised
that I had the capacity to write poetry and more so when I had several pieces
published. I continue to write but not with the sole scope of
being published. Poetry to me is a beautiful means of
communication and a way in which to express your thoughts when the
spoken word is not sufficient.
Poetry is a written record of
times past , fleeting moments that cannot be recreated and feelings that are irreplaceable
all captured on paper . I hope you will enjoy and perhaps find a use for
my work.
