A poem that begins dark with many shadows, but soon shows the break of day and ends with the dawning of the sun. Nicely said.

Finally brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think of these things.

How To Grow Old
sorenbarrett said:

When younger I thought of some day growing older. I blinked and now I am older and I reflect upon the end. But the end of one thing is the beginning of another and so life goes on, A very reflective write Dan.

How To Grow Old
Cassie58 said:

When sleep evades there is plenty of time to reflect on the passing of the years and the aging process. I am right with you there, being an insomniac myself. I rarely find answers though, just more questions and one thing I am sure of I am determined to make each day count. A thoughtful and reflective write Dan. Nicely conveyed. Have a happy Sunday.

Crescendo
sorenbarrett said:

This poem is full of wonderful lines and is said in a musing manner as if the author is drifting in thought. I loved its casual nature and unhurried pace. Lovely

As usual, there is a significant amount of philosophy and wisdom in this poem.“There is clarity in defeat missing from triumph “ This statement rings, true as does the next follow up line. “ Which often grows murky as it ages”. They are very nice images as well and overall the whole poem was quite poetic. A very enjoyable read.

I love this one Dan it is an anthropomorphic metaphor of life itself. Cute and fun. They put a smile on my face. Unfortunately it is more true than Fabel. Nicely done.

\"Dearest Diary, I\'m burdened and know you will understand. Mayhap I\'ll clear this muck of a fog, for I think I see a glimmer in the distance....\"
Yes, you could tidy this up into a different, more acceptable form but the message is great. Thank you for sharing.

Like a Hangman
sorenbarrett said:

A monologue, this writing is dark and seems metaphorical. It seems as though the author is speaking to the reader through the body of another. There are some very good lines in this the principle of which is contained in the title and refers to fear being like a hangman around one’s throat. Very nicely done.

Chance Of A Kiss
Cheeky Missy said:

Yes, the words eloquently paid tribute to exquisite moments whose inherent seduction subtly stole away the heart, yet to relive them seems it would be a very knife in the same, twisting cruelly at the priceless memories reviving what could have been, was once and is not. Or?

Compared to What?
sorenbarrett said:

Love all the questions that refer to costs and values
\"Just as honesty is unreliable, and integrity tries to cheat,\"
We usually think of this as a black and white value but it is not and this emphasizes this in such a nicely worded manner. I could list many example here but the poem stands for itself and I loved it
