The rhyme itself is wonderful but its connection with meter and metaphor gets the fave

Good write N. I never knew waiting for a bus drove you to this despair - pun intended on \'drove/drive\'? lol.

HOUSE
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Norman, I know a house can breathe. This is excellent. There’s a slow, steady tension running through this…the kind that builds as you move deeper into the space. Every step feels closer to something you can’t quite see, but you know it’s there. By the end, it doesn’t feel like a question anymore…it feels known. Really well done, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Yes, quite so. The old family house stood for generations and spoke even when there was no one listening. Splendid expression in poetry. 🕊️🙏

HOUSE
sorenbarrett said:
The house I live in is such and I am not such a believer but I have heard voices, singing, footsteps, doors that open and close with no breeze, draperies that fall all of a sudden after being in place for years. Yet they are friendly (spirits) if you would (for I do not believe in such despite the evidence) A nicely worded poem my friend

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Norman, this moves between memory and present ache…old wounds, quiet reflection, and that sense of something still unresolved. It circles back on itself in a way that fits the feeling you’re holding here. Nicely done. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

This is a rather unique meter and good rhyme in short lines. It gives the impression of flashes of thoughts. Well done

Norman, that butterfly in a breeze image really holds the center…everything feels fleeting but intentional at the same time. It gives the whole piece a soft, fragile weight that carries through. Beautifully done, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Norman, I’ve felt that kind of internal shift before…where something ends inside you before you even name it. And then later, you see it clearly. This brought that feeling back. Strong piece. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Well written. Your poem explores the cyclical nature of life, death, and rebirth, particularly through the seasons.
