The distance of the future, the suddenness of the past... This is stunning, sad but true. Thank you so much for sharing!

In each neglected minute
sorenbarrett said:
So well expressed this theme of the circle of life and its extension in each new birth. Your first stanza so pregnant with meaning. Your balance of the old and new is marvelous. The last stanza ties all together with the knowledge that with new life comes new pain as well as beauty. Thank you so much for sharing this.

It still amazes me that sourness and bitterness are so closely related, a very striking metaphor. Can’t wait to drizzle a meal in lemon, lime and a dash of balsamic vinegar…. You have made me hungry Mek!

I love the emotion you instill in the hurricane hair and earthquake footprint, it becomes quite tangible. Such a good write my friend!

What an intro ...
there will always be the odd occasion, when and wherever one treads, & leaves their mark, the left foot will never be quite write :)

Stunning metaphor used in this eloquent write on stamping a print of considered full weight when returning to a once meaningful relationship. Your opening line had all the hallmarks of classic poetry which attracts the read to learn more. Thank you for sharing Footprints of Choice dear L.B.

Droplets of cooling lava leaves (After Keats)
Bella Shepard said:
A voice once again heard, and always loved. While the leaves in my part of the world have turned, they are reluctant to leave the trees. I yearn for the cool, crisp feel of autumn, as I wait out the 60 degree weather forecasted through the end of Oct. Here\'s to autumn my friend, you do it proud.

Another jewel of wisdom encased in a minimum of words. It begs the question as to what is the difference between contemplation and dreams.

A rudderless life’s, rhythmicality
Olivia. said:
consuming any n all, momentary
escapes
thumbs, endlessly flicking up
eyes, darting wildly in search for tiktok
distractions, ignoring
that true tick-tock of our finite, futures
I really enjoyed this part especially!
Time is tic -tocking away.

L.B. This was quite a bit to be said. Poetry and sincerity should go hand in hand, if not it shows. The title is the indicator. As per usual well crafted and passionately emotive.

A beautiful and well composed poem that contains so much truth. The closer to the end I come the less time I have to waste and contemplation is not the best option. I wondered if all the lines beginning with C could be taken for \"see\" as in \"I see\" or contemplate? Sometimes I read too much into things.

How true your words are. The older I get, the greater the feeling to act more and contemplate less. True words of wisdom!
