Makes me think of the Muse with wings that restores and revives. It brings an encouragement toward authentic expression while preserving the deeper mysteries of the self. A Fave! 🙏🕊️

SPOKEN FROM LIPS
Tristan Robert Lange said:
My friend, this reminded me of those relationships or moments that slowly dissolve not through explosion, but through distance and time…where the grief comes less from anger and more from realizing you can no longer fully grasp what once felt eternal. The softness of the language makes that ache hit even harder. Powerful work. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

arqios said:
This poem makes me reflect on how love and meaningful experiences fade over time into memories, whispers, and words. It seems to suggest that emotions once deeply felt can become distant and impossible to fully recover. That may then symbolize the loss of deeper meaning within people, societies, or generations as time passes.

This poem to conveys a love that has been lowered for some unspecified reason and dwindled from previous heights. Well done

Norman, this feels full of wonder and danger at the same time...like someone reaching toward transcendence while standing at the edge of a storm. The imagery carries such movement and atmosphere through every stanza. “To touch a rainbow / Feel its need” especially stayed with me. Beautiful write, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

LETTER HOME
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Norman, what a powerful poem. There’s real fire in this...not just emotionally, but morally too. The lines about injustice and silence carry weight, and that “imprisoned flame” imagery lingers long after the read. It feels like a defense of poetry as something living and necessary...something that still refuses to look away. Wonderful write, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

NICOTINED FINGERS
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Norman, this really moved me. The whole poem feels like a room still breathing long after someone has left it behind. Smoke, stains, papered walls…it all carries that quiet exhaustion of a life worn down slowly over time. Haunting piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

As a child I likened the sight to the lengthy process of smoking foodstuff that was once living creatures. Amazing poem here, my friend 🙏🕊️
