a sad tale told so terribly well .. and held my attention from beginning to end .. The very feel of it made me think back to my days spent volunteering in West Africa .. Top marks from me brother ... N

Woman Of Color
Paul Bell said:
This could be, Joan of Arc, formidable in life, betrayed by man.
Isn\'t it strange how you don\'t see women starting wars. Is it because they\'re too busy doing real work..

Woman Of Color
L. B. Mek said:
\'It has run the length
of a tomorrow\'s expectations
It has journeyed the detours
of hopes delayed
It has travelled the picturesque miles
and like fine wine
emerged refined, wisdom gains
of disappointments and strife\'..
(glad to know
there\'s still some genuine: Men
around
for me to learn from, thank you
for choosing to share, wise Poet)
a Great write!
(if you\'re free, check out one of my older write\'s
titled:
\'adorned, with their petals of thorns\', on page 6
so you can see my feeble attempt
at writing, similar themes
to what, you so eloquently voiced in your pitch-perfect poem today)

Salty Tears
Accidental Poet said:
The way I read this, he\'s grieving the loss of his loved one. And her spirit is always with him wanting him to smile and live on with her memory to brighten each new day. Hopefully he will see her light beside him and smile. 😊

You can feel the pain running through this write. The closing of the curtains end another day, and so it goes on. Is there an end for her. Who knows, it\'s the real story of life in the raw.

Neville said:
I have always found the saltier the tears, the more genuine they are ...
This has the makings of an excellent story poem Garth and I am mightily impressed with just how you stimulate my own imagination with so many descriptive words and scenes .. I would personally assign top marks .. but I hope others will now follow in the wake I have created and submit their own thoughts also ..

Very good write Garth. So many people will not accept others into their lives for many reasons. One day I hope that ALL will be seen with respect in our world.

The Mothers We Lost
Paul Bell said:
We walk in shoes of mothers.
Sometimes you feel a bit grown up when parents die, but still value the advice they would have given you when times were tough.

I suppose this could be a poem about expression. The human and the wind at that time pushing through the day fighting the obstacles in the way.

The Wind Knows
L. B. Mek said:
\'of hearts\' feeble whispers
or is it a victory to deceit?
Throughout the chapters of ages
the wind has told
all prophecies of time
To us it is better acquainted
better than you and I\'..
simply Brilliant,
like Dusk complimented, this is such a free flowing rhythmic write
a decadently sumptuous
poetic, reading experience
(what a gift
thank you, dear Poet)
