Comments received on poems by The elder poet
AGE.
Accidental Poet said:
Knowledge is learned over the course of time. But adolescence wants to reject being told what to do or how to think. So listening to advice goes in one ear and out the other with little to no attention given to it\'s wisdom. Many youths want to believe they know it all, so they pay no attention to it. But over time, they realize the meaning of wisdom. Very well penned ep. 😉

I CAN.
Michael Anthony said:
Really like this - I can see you when you\'re not there .
I read letters you don\'t send.
A minor nit you may want to consider is to replace \"them\" with \"they\" in the second stanza and see how that sits with you. Thanks for sharing this!

TIMES A WASTING.
Michael Anthony said:
I have a fascination with timepieces, but I kind of hate them too; counting down every second as they were made to do. Enjoyed this one - thank you!

PASSION AND THE WINE.
Fay Slimm. said:
You catch those passionate moments so well with each stanza beautifully rhymed and the final line warms the heart even more. Being a lover and also a friend is surely a relationship to cherish.

TIMES A WASTING.
Goldfinch60 said:
Each moment in our lives has been and will be so important TEP, we are of an age to realise this. What I don\'t understand with time is the different speeds it has, if we are enjoying ourselves it just flashes by, if we are not enjoying ourselves it just drags on forever.

Awesome write here ep. I know this feeling so well. I notice the time going by faster than ever. And I know it\'s only because I\'m older and very busy as an adult, but what I wouldn\'t give for a bright sunny day from my childhood, 😎

NOT WANTING TIME.
Doggerel Dave said:
Yes ep - enjoyed very much. A clear picture painted with truth and honesty.
Not sure I want to be young again (I don\'t think you do either). apart from youthful insecurities, I wasn\'t sure I would survive sometimes. My consolation now is I know I did.

Accidental Poet said:
I know this feeling so well ep. Things I wish I could still do or do again. I once read a quote,
\"Don\'t grow up, its a trap\"
And I laughed as I felt I was supposed to laugh. But...at least we were there, and we have our memories of being there. Great write ep. 😉

Why in the world did we live it just to forget it.... everything we did was over in a nanosecond and just made memories - I love going home to the past and it sure beats now.

IT\'S A SMALL WORLD.
dusk arising said:
Dunno where such a suggestion that these aren\'t shared celestial bodies could have come from.
The human race proves decade after decade that we are very far apart ideologically. I wish it were not so. How many hundreds or thousands of years have there been peacemakers who have been confounded by humanity.
Such a shame, but lets not kid our selves with anything but reality.
