The \"basket full of light\" jumps out at me and stays aloft in the reading. So much fun when they get away that way.

This one spoke to me with each stanza a great line, so many in fact that I looked forward to finding the next. (A basket full of light collected,, The entire second stanza, You saw her balancing the different hurts underneath the hat of love she used to wear) The whole poem is magnificent!!

So much of misuse of power goes under the rug. Glad that this poem deals with that.

A poem that makes me ponder how we as a species ever survived evolution. Deeply written it poses several questions that we should think about. Nicely written

Ingenious the wording in this poem, not just of images which were wonderful and spot on. But of the very structure of the poem itself. The rhyme scheme left the reader feeling as if there was more to come. This echoed the theme of the poem itself, as if wishing that something more would have happened. The opening of the poem dives right in. But the second person keeps a bit of distance. The first line of the second stanza feels novel like. I love the line in the third stanza “ignores the growling dog of fate, which he figures to be all bark” A most beautiful poem

Getting an interlacing of themes of fate, change, and self-reflection; highlighting the constant interplay between fate and self-determination... What an epitome of resilience in the face of fire.

The metaphors are good in this poem and convey the meaning well. Blocked and frustrated the going is difficult but should not be given up on.

Neville said:


This on its own made an awful lot of sense .. and was seriously good enough not to require an authors note .. but, it served to reinforce an already formed construct .. Nice one Dan & believe me, there\'s no need to knock yourself .. Neville

A great use of metaphor here Dan. Nurture is paramount. Without it, all living things will die. A gardener knows that best of all. First class poetry. Much enjoyed.

This poem as a metaphor contains very deep meaning. It is inspiring haven’t given me an idea for a future poem. I think that alone makes it worthy of being faved.
