Semiosis
jarcher54 said:

Four final words, very insightful and connecting your experience with your art: the poetry in surviving. A memorable phrase indeed.

Changing Times
dusk arising said:

To me this speaks of a deep wound of love ungiven when it was needed the most.
Very easy for me to relate to having left home for life on big city streets at just fifteen. You brought back many memories and thoughts.
I read this several times and it\'s really well constructed.
I\'m inspired to write something similar one day when I revisit old haunts.
A must for my favourites

Changing Times
jarcher54 said:

There is little as moving as revisiting scenes of one\'s less happy past. You are somehow free of it yet still embroiled in the pain. A sensational account of both the physical journey and the journey of the soul. Love the unexpected use of \"I caught fire.\" Yes you did. And you made this old soul cry too, right there with you.

Let\'s Kiss in the Rain
dusk arising said:

The magic of idealistic romantic brought into stark contrast with life\'s reality of loss and pain. We cannot be the ideal beings we dream of..... but do the dreams ever stop... they shouldn\'t.

Hypnotic
dusk arising said:

Wow! What an amazing journey you took me on through the lines of this piece.
\"My thoughts are flowers waiting to be picked\" what a wonderful phrase any great poet would be proud of.

Songs of Hope and Peace
FredPeyer said:

Beautifully written, Jordan. I will have to read it a few more times to lose myself in it and to understand.

Shadow Flame
FredPeyer said:

\"Waiting for the loveless morning to appear\" How do you know it will be \'loveless\'? Yes, we will get hurt, but we also heal!

The two sides of change. Desire and fear.

Ah, misguided youth! This made me blush!

Pink Morning Horizon
FredPeyer said:

At my age sometimes I do feel like a \'son of yesterday\', but don\'t worry, I won\'t invade your bedroom! :-)

Duality
RDS said:

Another fine poem Jordan. It seems to me more expansive and unrestrained than some of your best. Not that that makes any more or less expressive but this feels less guided and more ephemeral. As ever, good work.

Soft Violins

angels playing prehistoric airs in your ears beats the heck out of tinnitus! Welcome back to earth... I think!

Duality
jarcher54 said:

Very deft phrase, the mind\'s asylum. Why didn\'t I think of that? It\'s a play on words and so much more. Some are placed in an asylum because of their minds. Thanks for the deep thought (pun intended).

Broken Flow from the Lake of My Pen
AlitaOpal said:

This poem literally reminds me of an ayhuasca retreat I joined in the Alps of Switzerland.. The whole experience and realisation I had attained afterwards..
Wonderful piece of work 🙌

Gone, Not Forgotten
FredPeyer said:

Losing a loved one is always very hard and does leave a big void. You wrote a very moving elegy, Jordan.

Rose Petals in Vaults
dusk arising said:

That wine is the poetic blood which daily courses through you and falls from your fingertips as the poetry you write.
I enjoyed reading this.

Bite marks indeed! Your outpourings are almost overwhelming! I think I love them...

When the Hate Fades
lauraoverxo said:

i love this piece, the heartbreak is written between lines of metaphors. the part about coming back to the person you love even if it\'s not healthy, the way that loves actually makes you feel insane sometimes. it has a real message about moving on or trying to move on from someone using geographical terms. :3
