I think this is better than good. There is a poetry group called \"Rattle\". You can find them on the internet. They publish poems and award prizes. I hope you will consider sharing this poem with them.

The metaphors here are amazing. So grounded on the surface but deep upon inspection. The simple and complex united.

I liked this one and identify with parts of it
\"The walled garden
of my lover\'s heart
The vain glory
of my petty art\"
This echo\'s my own feelings very well. This piece reveals more each time it is read.

\"to die,\" \"finish me, \"petty art,\" \"shame,\" these final stanza words present a bleak sadness within your poem. Coupled with your art, which to me seemed to paint a disappearing man, added to that sadness. Yet, the skill with which you articulate the feeling shows poetic mastery. A great poem. - Phil A.

Nigerian Dream: For Christopher Okigbo
sorenbarrett said:
The evolution of social progress is so slow in comparison to technological accomplishment. This gulf has created a threat to all of humanity. Such a beautiful yet fearful dream. It appears that Hermes left only some of his scrolls and the progress of the human soul for peace and human rights is up to us to discover.

I know it is well made,
As It made me sad.
Very to the point.
Fitting watercolor too.

I loved the pairings. Subtle yet to the point. A bit melancholic but also nostalgic in a way. Very nice

Nigerian Dream: For Christopher Okigbo
AuburnScribbler said:
A powerfully written sonnet here jarcher54, written in a masterful tone, and is also a great tribute to Christopher Okigbo, let\'s hope an actual change for the better can occur, to fix certain messes, that are happening too frequently, all over the world.
Bravo, and I hope that all is well!

This haunting tale evokes many memories and the experiences that have gone with them. It is memorable that certain images bring back flashes from the past as well as people. These ghosts we carry with us always. Nice write.

Fantastic road trip down memory lane, brought alive by lookalike guests. Don\'t know how many times in the bar I\'ve gone through the roll-call of the departed. After ten, you usually get told to stop and get the drinks in. Covid sure did kill a lot of good people.
