To Where The Seven Horses Run
Teddy.15 said:

lol just brilliantly executed, I cannot help but think of the number of the devil, but your title is phenominal and yes wild horses also relatable in my life. Melvin, I\'m at the sea I\'m really well but every time I read a line of Sylvia it simply sends my muse I to overdrive. Thank you. 🌹

An incredible sense of deep loss and sorrow, you surely know how to inspire your reader dear Melvin, in the most wonderful times and the most deeply tragic. Kudos my dear friend. I absolutely love your first stanza it has emotion and imagery that cuts like a knife. 🌹

A Sudden Touch Of Wood
Bella Shepard said:

\"In the window-box where my goldfinch came to rest singing honey through the fingers of her heart\", beautiful and gentle, standing in contrast to what seems to me conflict, then resolution in the last four exquisite lines. Beautifully versed my friend!

Beautiful and intriguing images presented with most interesting and compelling internal rhyme from time to time. Metaphoric is an understatement.

Cassie58 said:

Living with the ache of loss cuts deep. You can not escape it. If you don’t dream it, it will surely grip you on waking and it will choose when it will drown you. Deeply felt words.

No Flesh My Iron Lung
Cassie58 said:

Captivating stanzas Melvin.

Drawn to the lines

my plastic is your primrose
my seed no lesser soul
too many sad goodbyes

The lines are heavy and the imagery most
unusual. The mood is melancholic. Thank you for sharing.

They Are Not You
Bella Shepard said:

As life changes us, and time reshapes our form, we often drift to thoughts of the past, and what was once, but is no more. It can\'t be helped, it is our human way. There is a sad and yet beautiful sentiment in the way you have phrased this poem, who else could have done it but you.

Cassie58 said:

the black rook reels me in

The mood here is heavy in this piece with perhaps thoughts of those now departed. I read several times. You create an ambience of quiet, solemn reflection. I find your poetic expression always refreshingly original Melvin. Thank you for sharing.

Above The Water-Mark
Bella Shepard said:

Dark and sinister, you pait a picture, with wonderful imagery, of what is pervasive in our sad world. We do \"wait with baited breath\", we must. A very powerful write my friend!
