A beautiful poem making us asks a lot of questions that maybe not all will be answered, an underlying message of believing and valuing yourself, really enjoyed the read

Every question is an answer undiscovered. I love this poem because it asks the questions. Most times, as I see it, the question is more important than the answer we seek, and often times those questions may lead us to answers we weren\'t anticipating. This, my friend, is a beautiful and well written poem. Well done. 👏

A poem poignantly explores the tension between hope and despair. The questions, \"Is there still light beneath the shadow, are there answers undiscovered?\" express a longing for reassurance and the possibility of a brighter future. It’s final lines, \"Until I grasp the ring I will likely never know,\" emphasize the need to seize opportunities and embrace the unknown. It captures the courage to continue striving for better days, despite the uncertainties. Hard not to be inspired by it! 🙏🏻🕊👍🏻

Got myself into a couple of scrapes like this, in my time. And it’s not the best space to be in. Save one thing, you have been more articulate with it than I have ever been. Your poem speaks volumes. 🙏🏻🕊

I believe it\'s always better to be alone than in the wrong company, love hurts it also brings us joy and companionship however if the friendship before love isn\'t mutual then it\'s one sided and a waste of your time. Moving on yes, onto better things with those who truly find everything in you that is there to be loved. 🌹 My favourite subject of course is love. 🌹 I have a poem on here called My Nevada probably on my last page, I wrote it many years after I left someone I loved with all my heart, he just wasn\'t a good man. In Italy we say prosciutto nel occhi (ham in your eyes) translated to blinded by love. A wonderful poem.

Not at all alarmist, a very realistic and powerfully capturing of the urgent and critical state of our world, highlighting the looming dangers of environmental destruction and human complacency. The imagery and metaphors you use evoke a sense of impending doom and the harsh reality we face. Heads up y’all!

A great poem/rant on the human situation. Population increase, technology, greed and a few other issues lie at the center here. Nicely done

Loaded and packed with metaphor after metaphor this is a read that requires multiple revisits and like walking though waist deep waves is slow but most gratifying and beautiful. There is something about exercise mental or physical that leaves one feeling tired but better. Very nice

Loving the progression of thoughts, like tall grass left unkempt, mirrors the chaotic nature of trying to make sense of past experiences. The metaphor of paraffin protecting yet initially hurting is particularly striking, highlighting how self-preservation can often come with its own pain. And still there is more to this poem and from it in the same breath!

These ring as if out of a new book of Proverbs exposing half truths buried under the slag of prevarication. Nicely written in a list like format that presents it as a new ten commandments.

Dan this marvelous piece is full of great lines...(the best way to get our hands clean is by washing something else., The weakest arguments extend from those most needed to be strong,,continually rethinking the things they claim to be sure about,) but the clincher for me was the last two lines of the poem
(anything she did not first believe can just not possibly be right,
if she did not see it happen it could not possibly have occurred)
So many people are like this and it delves deep into human psychology of the times.

What we belief can prove unreliable and makes us question them. Things that bring sense to our world may not always add up, becoming temporary comforts and while remaining hopeful are not very reliable. An ongoing conversation on truth, perception and human experience is quite invaluable! :-)

I loved the last line particularly (then god’s repairman makes the call; not worth fixing.) That kind of sums it up. A sense of darkness pervades this piece and its shadows are reflected in this last line.
