Love the personification in this poem where images take on human qualities. It is a beautiful word painting.

DERELICT
sorenbarrett said:
This poem paints beautifully a picture of what was once a house fallen into neglect a metaphor for a person as well. It is not just age and time that takes such a toll but disregard. It gives a melancholic feel that is somehow haunted. Very nicely written and a fave

THE UNWELCOME STRANGER
sorenbarrett said:
Sad, lonely and desolate are words that come to mind with this poem. Isolated on a sea of people, nothing more lonely than that. Nicely done it casts a mood.

The voice of the city and the voice of loneliness.
I liked the rhythm of the poem.
Short lines, like the sound of footsteps.

DESTRUCTION
sorenbarrett said:
This poem has some association with my tomorrow\'s post. It seems so true that man and ants are the war wagers on this planet. Most other animals kill only for food or survival. Nicely composed

THE GRINDSTONE

An interesting poem poem written about the flaws of capitalism and those that lead it. Its a very unfair fact of capitalism that the rich get rich and the poor get poorer.

BACK WHERE I STARTED

Its hard to go back sometimes. Our minds fill up with memory instead of the now. At least thete is hindsight and hopefully people that once were and now are again important.

Going back can be heartbreaking, the memories just never live up to past you once lived.
Hope yours was good.

A FOREIGN LAND
sorenbarrett said:
Very nicely written a poem of acknowledging the horrors and uncertainties of war. It speaks coldly as one must divorce oneself from feeling in such situations and in its cold like the autumn before winter leaves fall. A very somber poem and a fave

It captures both the isolation of the rose and love and the emotional weight carried in its “weeping petals” and silent longing. Nicely Written.

A LATIN GARDEN
sorenbarrett said:
Norman this poem has a special thing about it that I can not put my finger on. It has good flow and a rolling meter that carries the reader onward, the rhyme is good and engaging and the message is haunting but there is something else intangible that I like about it. A fave
