Ah, the spirit of apathy exudes in this poem. When people just stop engaging and caring to engage. A wonderful metaphor that makes its point well, Soren! Well done, my friend! 👏🐦⬛🖤

Achieving anything by default is invalid really, I played for a football team once that won the last game of the season by the other team not turning up because they thought they would lose anyway, we won the league because of that, but the opposition not showing took all the shine of off it, enjoyed the read

Flies

Loved this poem. Enjoyed the style of writing. Very clever and subtle.
The content really sums up my thoughts about flies in the kitchen. ( Why can\'t they stay outside?)
Extremely well written, you feel the frustration of a delicious meal spoilt.

Excellent poem, my friend! The metaphor works so well and yet can also be read literally. Speaking of literally, when I was a kid we would literally wear our clothes out. Like it was cool for holes to appear in them and wear them that way until you couldn\'t anymore. Now, we simply design clothes to have holes in them and charge extra for it! 🤷♂️ That\'s neither here nor there regarding the poem, but it made me think of that, so I share! 🤣 Well done, Soren! 🌹👏 A fave for sure!

A heartfelt Painting, sorenbarrett, Yourpoem masterfully weaves themes of loss, protection, and the passage of time, utilizing the imagery of a worn wool coat as a powerful metaphor for memory, comfort, and resilience in the face of hardship and abandonment. You beautifully reflect on the connection to their past, their mother, and the warmth that remains despite the coldness of their environment. You skillfully evoke empathy for those who have experienced loss and highlight the importance of memories and objects that provide comfort in difficult times. It serves as a poignant reminder of the unwavering resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity.

What a saga! And the imagery of the \"wild wings flap at zipper\'s gap\" particularly evocative. It\'s as if the coat has a life of its own, fluttering like wings despite its age.🙏🏻🕊

I don\'t know if the younger generation do this anymore but my generation kept their clothing until the bitter end, and the favourite item of clothing was nearly always the tattiest, enjoyed the read

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Ah, to be truly free of our human trappings to be, completely one, as opposed to at war, with nature. This poem speaks to that yearning we all have, whether we realize it or not. Or, at least, that is what I get out of it. Either way, my friend, this is a wonderful poem! An easy fave for its connection to nature and for its beautiful profundity. 🌹👏

Nicely done, you are definitely tuned into Mother Nature. Soren, Your poem explores the desire for liberation from the physical constraints of the human body and the longing for a deeper connection with nature and creativity. It conveys a yearning to transcend the limitations of mortality and express beauty through art and poetry. The imagery of sunbeams, colors, and natural elements suggests a quest for enlightenment and emotional freedom. At the same time, the references to the senses highlight the contrast between the physical and the ethereal. You seem to seek to articulate the tension between the constraints of the human body and the soul\'s desire for transcendence, prompting readers to reflect on their own experiences with creativity, nature, and the search for meaning.
