ODE TO RARE BEAUTY
Fay Slimm. said:

The feel of deep loss after beautiful togetherness wrings through your lines and ends with a truth - yet it must be - - a powerful poem expressing rare meetings of special souls - this I can relate to dear Louis.

Louis, your excellent poem expresses both the beauty and the loss of this special kind of \'togetherness\' we sometimes experience with another person. A connection that might seem \'otherwordly\' rather than based on shared interests. Beautiful writing!

My structured routine has passed.
Now it’s all about how I fill
the spaces between!
I have to make the most of it!

Well written and thought provoking!
Definitely a favorite!

Whatever the form this reads so appealingly with a super last line Louis - a gem of poem and must be put in my favourites.

Very good Louis, your formal poem worked well did you enjoy writing it as much as a free formed poem ?

I\'m no expert on poetic forms. I suppose most of mine is formal, e.g. lines 1 and 2 rhyme, and lines 3 and 4 rhyme, etc. A fairly simply layout, otherwise too complicated and it would take hours to write!
Stanza 2 - Erm, yes! Both I think.

Not sure it falls into a specific category other than quatrain but has as it\'s so structured it has elegant form - good write Louis.

Good write and so very true. That link with the eyes of strangers can be so meaningful.

Laura🌻 said:

That connection with one’s eyes is very powerful! Whether negative or positive, no words are needed to communicate!
The last two lines summarizes very well!
A great write!

Nice one Louis - eye contact is so important. My daughter has a new pup which she is currently training and eye contact plays such an important role. Must try it out on humans. lol

TOO BAD
FredPeyer said:

Louis, the way I see this poem, the who, what and why is not relevant. The poem tells me not to give up, to keep on going, to see failure as an opportunity, to learn from past mistakes.
Very well written, like it a lot!

All we can reasonably handle is the now and you have versed this so clearly here for us Louis - - a brilliant write.

FredPeyer said:

Another great and thought provoking poem, Louis.
Living in the now is what we are supposed to be doing in this life. Live and learn!
The reviews of our past lives will come after we cross over. At least that is my take on this.

An excellent write. \"To what end\"....exactly! If there were past lives then there must be future ones, so enjoy the one you are living. - Phil A.

Ain\'t we got enough to do with this \'present life\', let alone past lives - which I think is bunkum myself!? A fine write as a poem.
