capitalisation both of language and economy. A far-reaching meditation, much enjoyed Soren. 🕊️🙏

Lovely.
We travel until darkness obscures our vision and we sleep.

Too full for dessert
Vipassana said:
Felicity:
1 intense happiness: domestic felicity.
2 the ability to find appropriate expression for one\'s thoughts: speech that pleased by its accuracy, felicity, and fluency.
• a particularly effective feature of a work of literature or art: the King James version, thanks to its felicities of language, ruled supreme.
Writing poems demonstrates that you are not \"too full\" for more felicity. Keep feeling keep going.

Second bow

rover: a person who spends their time wandering.
rover: (in various sports) a player not restricted to a particular position on the field.
Personally I find both versions of roving quite useful, often a time of discovering something important. Keep roaming, sir.

Soren, this is smart wordplay with teeth. Ice melting, value shrinking, presence becoming unwelcome…the metaphor slides seamlessly into current realities without losing its footing. It’s understated, pointed, and effective. Well done!🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

A very powerful poem with a hidden meaning. Ice unfortunately can’t tolerate spice and as we all know, milk is what really cures it. Great poem Soren.

The imagery here is sly and observational—mundane details stretched into small philosophical questions.
That ice becomes almost existential, melting under scrutiny, makes the ordinary feel surprisingly sharp and witty.

Clever composition. The hot spicy food needs ice, which should be served along the dish. Mexican food is known to be hot and spicy.

Allie561 said:
What an ethereal poem Soren. I cannot express how beautiful this is. The way that it can be read all together and separately is truly amazing work. I also enjoyed how they are similar but vastly different all on their own. What a talent you have, definitely one of my favorites.

Always like something different, catches the imagination.
You\'re on another level with this one.
Expect it to be pinched at some point in the future.

Méno ward fangen .
Endilhaz strids feht .

Urstanden fo\' naht skrùd.

Austan mistaz .
In spruzjan ist faran .

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Soren, this poem moves as if light were a pendulum. Dawn to dusk, blaze to shadow, struggle to release…the structure itself enacts the passage it describes. The closing lift back into light feels earned and calm. Strong work, dear friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️

The word \"gravity\" suits the nature of love. Love pulls and sweeps us off our feet. In the grip of love we do crazy things that don\'t make sense to a logical mind : but this is precisely the point : there is no logic in love... It can take us to our ruin, break families, but it can hardly be resisted.

Soren, this is excellent, my friend. It feels like standing inside a thought refusing boundaries…love rendered as force, motion, and music all at once. It carries awe without strain. Love it, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Love is such a funny thing. It comes out of nowhere and when we do expect it, it doesn’t show up at all. You captured the details of it perfectly. Great portrayal Soren.
