Tristan Robert Lange said:

What a powerful extended metaphor, Soren! The silent stream absorbs every downpour until its clarity is buried and its restrained suffering becomes destructive force. It speaks painfully to how relentless blame can transform the very person expected to endure it quietly. Excellent poem, my friend! ๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ๐Ÿฆโ€โฌ›

Good write SB.
Erm, I thought you was gonna write about my marriage to KP, with that title. Though I hardly ever see her in person - only on the telly, in papers, magazines, at the Old Trout pub, and a hundred etc\'s. lol.

Yes, if nature isn\'t burning us alive, she\'s drowning us, which tells me she\'s had enough.
Something has to give, and with a force like nature, it doesn\'t do to annoy the great woman.

The river almost feels less like water and more like something remembering what it was supposed to be. Lovely, my friend.

A powerful flood as a metaphor for blame and destruction.
The greatest tragedy is not the turmoil itself, but the lasting damage it leaves behind.

Soren, Iโ€™ve written a few pieces that probably belonged in the plumbing rather than a collection! ๐Ÿคฃ Sometimes artistic discernment simply means knowing when to pull the handle. Loved this, my friend! ๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ๐Ÿฆโ€โฌ›

Arthur Miller, in Death of a Salesman, expresses this idea through Willy Lomanโ€™s words: โ€œYou canโ€™t eat the orange and throw the peel awayโ€”a man is not a piece of fruit!โ€ A poem is not merely a collection of words; it is what those words make us feel, see, and understand. Some poems need to be read again and again, each time with a fresh eye, because their meaning reveals itself gradually.

There is something strangely beautiful about how everything that serves its purpose eventually becomes something we refuse to look at. Even waste gets its own quiet afterlife. Nicely written

What a beautifully wistful piece, Soren. Each wonder arrives brightly and disappears just as quickly, leaving only one small keepsake behind. This carries the ache of loving everything temporaryโ€ฆand it lingers. Excellent write, my friend. ๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ๐Ÿฆโ€โฌ›

The poem is beautiful in many ways, but for me, the ending is especially fascinating, as it leaves a sense of loss balanced by a small trace of hope.
