This has all the makings of a song with its reoccuring refrain. The repetition of this not only emphasizes the statement but puts an emotional foreboding feeling to it as if a prophecy or curse. a bit haunting

Just in case you aint wrong .. I plan on stocking up with a decent supply of space blankets, plus extra strong mints and have just arranged the annual service on my nuclear reactor .. A compelling poem about separation (for whatever reason) and the anticipated chill, loneliness and compounded emotions of remorse, possible confusion, or uncertainty and grief .. Well penned, friend ..

You certainly have plenty to say here Dan. A sad goodbye from what I can see. Love never seems to be plain sailing, the wind has a habit of dropping out of the sails. I wish you better days ahead and that joy returns. All good wishes.

Eight Thousand Sunrises
AuburnScribbler said:

Though written in a painful and yearning tone, this is a beautiful write about the passage of time Dan.

Also, using the sun as a somewhat happy constant, sure adds to the warmth of the piece.

Bravo, and I hope that all is well.

Waiting for those golden years you haven\'t heard we are off the gold standard its all federal reserve notes not worth the paper they are printed on. Loved the write and have felt some of the same feelings.

Misunderstanding the linchpin of many problems and sometimes it is by design. Silent secrets held out of love may result in a martyrdom nicely said Dan

Matrimonial Misfire

I could see the battle rage before me enemy entrenched on high ground Sun Tzu would predict defeat. A suicide charge like Pickett at Gettysburg trying to hold out like Leonidas and the 300 Spartans at Thermopylae. I felt that I had been there.Well written

This is a very deep well you have dug. You have approached this from a most unique path. I love this approach. You have put in poetic form not only Robert Frost\'s The road less taken but expanded upon it. Very nice now it is my turn to be jealous.

Beautifully written a statement of how things are seen as right or wrong and by whom. Full of great metaphor it rings true.

The Why Begins to Show
sorenbarrett said:

This poem is a quiet small pond that is deceptively deep. Several metaphorical clues are left along the way as guide posts and as it unravels. Reincarnated, resurected call it what you may how does one differ from the other life and what is the purpose. Each belief has its own answer (one eye) no one is certain no on is sure. I\'m not sure my interpretation applies. Never the less very nicely done
