Larry!

Another wonderful poem by you.

Such strong images and very good description and history lesson for us.

I don't remember reading much about it but I did see the movie with Gerard Butler (mmm *drools*) and thought it was awesome. I loved and so did my hubby (he especially because of the fighting scenes and I for other reasons :D)

I didn't know much about it until I did see the film and I think it's great that you have written a poem about this because I am unsure how many people know about it, really. I love how poems introduce us to certain things and teach us things we rarely know about. I've opened up my mind to a whole new thing. Your poem makes me want to watch the movie again (for new reasons)

I think you have done this so much justice with your poem. You really have described everything so well and the way it is penned is awesome. A beautiful, in depth poem. I must say as well, the fact that you managed to do this in a formed poem is brilliant. Well done!

Congratulations on reaching your 300th poem, your 300th miracle. The more you write, the deeper I fall for your talent, Sir. Congratulations on doing a good, no... a great job with this. Truly impressed me and gave me so much to think about. I think forms are a hard task, but oh well, who am I kidding? Sir Larry is the King of Forms, well, that should be your next screen name, haha. This form, between all other forms, is the hardest, the most well-flowing and the most challenging, so you can say that it's my favorite from you, haha, it's like the 300th time I tell you this, right? :P Everytime I read a piece from you, I remember a poet, an Arabic poet, who always writes in English and different languages, and always tries something new out and just like you, always amazes us with it! I heard of this Sestina form but never (lol, of course) tried it out. I especially like the ending where you incorporated all the used words above altogether. I am on my phone now, so I truly truly can't be any later. My father is about to throw me out of the window, haha, but a very well-written form. Nominated!
