There are two thorny vines in tropical North Queensland with delightful names. \"Linger Longer\" and \"Stay Awhile\". Cheers. Loved your poem

Rothko Chapel Painting
L. B. Mek said:

firstly, I agree with Dusk
I too, couldn\'t find the contextual correlation
between your words and the painting/picture..
but that\'s truly meaningless, in this case
because I found your writing, a stand alone
immersive read of insightfully nuanced artistry:
\'A new day appears, repeating
a cycle of anger and hatred.

Rain
Fog
Bruised

This time it can take no more.

Holding on by a single thread,
the sky takes a breath.\'
such a joy to read, dear poet
thank you for choosing to share

Paintings provided by Dulux colour swashes? There\'s far more depth in your poem than in those pictures. My eye.

Music
L. B. Mek said:

\'A fleeting thought
Their feet land
for a split second
then they are off again\'..
wonderful, I get a sense of the waves
you were vibing with when you were inspired
to pen this dedication, a great read
thanks for sharing

Dr. Facilier
L. B. Mek said:

what a wonderful read
really liked the drop down, unveiling format
both for its metaphorical insight
and its natural poetic flow,
thank you for sharing, dear poet
(sadly until I listen to the song, eventually
I know little of the context or meaning behind it
but I\'m hopeful
the message is a seemingly positive one)
might be worthwhile to include a link
so future (lazy) readers like me
can quickly gain an appreciation for your write
inclusive of its meaningful context
especially, the numerical references

That first line says it all, \'to accommodate\' not to share with.

Wow I’m surprised how many comments this poem got. Honestly I didn’t think it would get this much traction. Thank you all for you comments!

L. B. Mek said:

wonderfully portrays
that playful essence of their charismatic nature
especially in that symbolical arrangement
of your poetry\'s purposely jagged, rhythm..
a fun read

Kaleidoscope

Deeply moving this view on life and its changing patterns my friend - -- agreed that we either cope with change or maybe never find our true self in the daily kaleidoscope.

Brokenness
Fay Slimm. said:

With genuine hands held out the sufferer has a rope to pull on and must feel more security as your tender lines state - -a fine read of compassion and all it means.

Broken souls need time and find their own readyness. Perseverence often pays off.

Boxing Day
L. B. Mek said:

jarring to read this in the crippling heat of June
but also, somehow adds more weight to your
nostalgic words,
why do we assume, there will always be a better boxing day
in our future? what about, this chaotic existence we call life
means we\'re even guaranteed another one?
and that, dear poet is why write\'s like yours
are always timeless and necessary!
we must, celebrate our wonderful memories
so that those who read: can be reminded
its not all doom and gloom;
however sweltering the heat
or dreary grey, those gathering clouds,
good days: exist
just a few puffs of a wind, away...
thanks for sharing dear poet

The Power
L. B. Mek said:

fences serve a purpose, see
without middle grounds
it would all be that eye for an eye
of all-consuming, futile hate
that\'s why middle grounds, exist
to balance out
the zealotry in humanity\'s
fallible extremes..
thanks for sharing

dusk arising said:

Great write about the confusion of who you are. Well right now you is, what you is. And what you is, is learning to be what you\'re going to be which normally is a more \'together\' version of you than today. phew!.... Well that\'s gotta be worth looking forward to for all the potential lovers around you!
