Salty Tears
Paul Bell said:

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.

Salty Tears
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 ..

Walls Of Hypocrisy

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.

The Mothers We Lost
Fay Slimm. said:

Your title drew my attention as it surmounted the worded tribute to mothers who tried their very best to leave us with memories which nothing else could replace. A compelling read dear friend.

The Wind Knows
Paul Bell said:

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)

The Wind Knows
dusk arising said:

The Abstract Mind Sees
Paul Bell said:

Abstract. It\'s a great way to look at life. If you don\'t like particular parts, you think your way to a different path.
I think that\'s what the old masters do.
Never managed it myself.

Depopulation
spilleronsheet said:

Great one dear poet
Looking at stars gives a calmness inside
In the vast universe, we are nothing but a spec of dirt
And so well you planted the sky wearing the dark robe of night
With mention of Orion and auroras
Such a beautiful scene caught the pair of eyes

Self-estranged Commoners
James Alexander said:

Truthful insight of today\'s society. Trust used to be a given along with civility. Picked up many a stranded traveler in my youth without apprehension. Well done.

The Fallen Birds Of Jamaica Bay
Paul Bell said:

Is there nothing man won\'t consume.
Got a feeling, Mother nature is getting a bit sick of us now.

The Fallen Birds Of Jamaica Bay
L. B. Mek said:

an important write!
anything to reduce
our custom built cocoon of indifference
is a welcome, opportunity for personal growth
for those, who take the opportunity to heed
the wisdom in such insightful, poetry..
thank you! for choosing to share dear poet

The Fallen Birds Of Jamaica Bay
dusk arising said:

A sad tale indeed. But there\'s a message one can read apart from the obvious one.
The birds will not learn as a species to avoid flight paths, they will persist in their instinctive behaviour and perish, maybe to extinction.
Let us apply that to humanity and it\'s environment dilemma. Shall we learn and adapt or pursue our greedy instinct to it\'s inevitable end?

I don\'t think we\'re long for this world so it will heal without us...........Chernobyl did...... the animals are thriving in spite of radiation. Your poem is beautifully done.....
