Oh, Norman, you\'ve got me wanting to wander through an old English town after midnight! Though knowing my luck, I\'d stumble into a pub full of dead poets arguing over whose work deserved publication. And I\'d probably join the argument! 😂🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

The meter and cadence of this poem made it special. It showed good rhyme as well as an ornament and the message was enchanted in fog with each line emerging from it magically. Most lovely and a fave

Norman, there’s a terrible loneliness in being surrounded by life and still feeling entirely alone. This one got to me. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

One of my favorite songs Vincent by Don McLean, I could tell right off that this was following that trend. This poem is brilliant in its brevity and ability to convey the same meaning to anyone that knows the story where so many familiar images of his life are incorporated into it. I truly love this poem my friend.

Norman, this has that late-night feeling when sleep isn\'t happening and your mind decides it\'s the perfect time to revisit everything you\'ve ever loved and lost. Thanks, brain. 😂 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

I love the meter of this poem. My favorite lines :
\"Midnight weeps
With tired eyes\"
I feel that phrase having been there before. In its sadness it speaks to me my friend. A fave

Norman, that last invitation made me stop for a second. Sometimes there\'s an awful lot waiting for us when everything else finally shuts the hell up. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Loved the combination of rhyme with short meter to set the tone of this poem. It becomes like a metronome in its ticking pulling one onward toward the end. Nicely done my friend.

Norman, this is tender and sad in that old-first-love kind of way...the memory is sweet, but that final wondering gives it the ache. Beautiful write. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

This one touched me Norman. Maybe we all have such a thought and feeling. The sting of nostalgia for something lost in a sunny past. Memories of a spring long ago when one is in fall. It touched me my friend. A fave.
