Tick Tock
Doggerel Dave said:
You don\'t need the prompts - You could observe the world around you with your skills without difficulty, I believe.
A picture of insomnia I can relate to completely. Thanks for assuring me I\'m not alone....

I, Am But a Puzzle
Doggerel Dave said:
Liked this, but are you a conundrum to yourself? Ignore them and focus on understanding yourself. Not as easy as it sounds; it can be a lifelong project...

Sheltered from the Storm
Doggerel Dave said:
Can happen. Certainly I\'ve had that experience under (of course) totally different circumstances. Nevertheless I felt the cold and hunger you portray. Forced to stay with you \'til the end.

And On And On And On

a wonderfully vivid description
I think up to 250cc
it\'s all fun and tumbles, but those greater
beasts
are on a whole different level..
(maybe there\'s a thrill seeker in you waiting to be unleashed
next time, try taking a motorbike lesson
even just one, feel the power in your fingertips
dictate your own thrilling sensations)
or not and stay safe on four wheels and two legs
lol

\"A death trap on two wheels.......... license for less than a month prior........ We dismount and say goodbye.\"
Lucky lucky lucky. I rode a motorcycle for a number of years - that story of yours creeped me out.

So long as it wasn\'t actually your experience... Reassurance?
The urgency of the situation comes through in this work.

Perfect((ion)ist))
spilleronsheet said:
This is sad
Being a perfectionist is very burdensome
It was good at start but later so tiring
It takes to much to Bd perfectionist
Good one dear poet

I can relate, I have so many vivid dreams, sometimes I can\'t differentiate them from reality!

Pack of Masks
woundedheart said:
If the world were a masquerade would we all not be guilty of having wore masks on more than one occasion in our lives times we have pretended to be someone we most certainly are not. This poem portrays the imperfections we hide and the beauty we offer up freely. Lovely write.

Unconditional Love
woundedheart said:
Very clever structure the two sides to your nature your personality each a part of your mother and father our DNA may define our looks but it is the nurturing of our parents help mould us, this is a beautiful tribute to their love for you and your love for them.

Unconditional Love
Ameljor said:
Beautiful, your mum and dad must feel so blessed to have you in their lives. And I love that, they don’t push you. Being a mother myself, I feel it is important to just love unconditionally and allow your children to fly. And don’t expect to much from yourself, there is nothing to prove to anyone. 😁🌻

We all have so many thoughts in our life and hopefully the important ones are fulfilled.

Doggerel Dave said:
I get this completely, those thoughts are slippery little buggers aren\'t they?
I don\'t even see them as coming from me - they are just something the brain churns out. I mostly relax and let them go, as retention takes too much energy. An occasional one might get communicated - a poem perhaps? But mostly.....

L. B. Mek said:
an impressive style and flow, there\'s a lulling theme to your word choices that makes these insightful observations, unassuming
at first read, and especially like how you used a single image and wrapped your poetry around it, in layers..
a poem worth revisiting from time to time, for sure
thank you for choosing to share, dear poet

Question
Doggerel Dave said:
lol. I\'ve now recovered from some kind of brain fever induced by your piece.

What is a Woman
L. B. Mek said:
that first stanza, exemplified it best
how - the ladies in our lives
have to overcome a lot \'No\'s\', in life
although, what\'s truly wondrous
is how \'They\' find a way, to make those No\'s
a chorus: in their own, battle song...
(an empowering message
thanks for sharing)

What is a Woman
dusk arising said:
I offer a wish that such freedom were there for every woman. Sadly, in our world there are societies and religions which forbid freedom for the female of our species. This is disgusting to the emancipated western mind.

those who understand will appreciate
the depths of your Poetry\'s brevity;
and those who don\'t, will bark
their snarky comments, to hide
their ignorance fuelled: incompetence...
