Wonderful Words to live by. If only all leaders took them to heart.

This is beautiful and evocative, effectively capturing nostalgia and longing. The imagery is vivid, and the language is poignant. Well done!

The rummaging through the old storage cupboards we all keep, reminding us sometimes of things we had completely forgotten, enjoyed the read

I am reminded here by the fact that much is promised in life but very little actually comes true.A wonderful trip down memory lane found in a closet.

That which is kept stored found again, the language of inanimate objects can speak in many tales trails and memory lanes, a wonderfully compose piece. There is a slow unfolding within these lines. i enjoyed the read!

Very well written and packed with thought-provoking lines. If only there was a gruelling exam to pass before even getting in the running for leadership. Then we might have more decent, well-adjusted human beings running the world.

Plato’s vision of leadership is highly idealistic. The ideal ruler must be entirely free of selfish ambition, but Plato’s philosopher-king remains more an aspiration than a reality. Excellent write, Soren. Thank you for sharing.

What we like it or want to hear it I would rather people were just honest, then at least you respect someone for being true to their beliefs and self. Lies just breed lies, which breed mistrust and contempt, then resentment and anger, and very quickly you are the road to failure, lovely write, enjoyed the read

Probably the greatest philosopher, I\'d find it hard to believe any human can remain platonic in our world today, as there seems to be two side on the left we are good on the right we are bad. A magnificent piece of poetry and a fabulous discussion my friend. 🌹

It beautifully weaves the cycles of nature and creativity, showing how renewal and transformation breathe life into both trees and words. Its imagery is vivid, its rhythm graceful, and its message profound—a poetic masterpiece that celebrates the essence of creation.

Yes. Many who post don\'t end up reading, which is sad to me. Reading is as beneficial as writing, imho. The two feed each other. Brilliant use of a Roman custom as a metaphor. Perfectly done. Faved. 🌹👏

orchidee said:
Ahh, bit of French there - Damnatio...... A couple of good words for KP each new day, I reckon! lol.
A bit like I\'m reading of the Reformation in the mid 1500\'s in the UK, and Damnatio memoriae - erasing Roman Catholic images, shrines, rites, and other paraphernalia, or at least that was the aim. They hid objects, etc, sneakily, in some cases. Then Queen Mary I brought the RC stuff back, then Queen Elizabeth I and Protestantism. (I can\'t see on your profile if you\'re in the UK or not.) History lesson over! lol.

Friendship said:
The poem explores the importance of poetry and the act of sharing one\'s thoughts and feelings through written words. It emphasizes that both the act of writing and the engagement of readers are crucial for a poem to truly live and resonate. The notion of \"Damnatio memoriae\" suggests that forgetting is akin to death, and thus, sharing poetry is a means of preserving memory and sentiment. Your poem aims to inspire both poets and readers to engage with one another, emphasizing that the act of sharing poetry is vital to keeping the art form alive and relevant. It serves as a call to action to not only create but also to read and appreciate the works of others.
