Beauty is masked by wearing a floating ash cloak, that is a wonderful line. When we are young we are Naive and inexperienced in the harsh reality`s of life, so it is easy to be deceived by what we want to believe, enjoyed the read

I have been writing about my first love for most of 30 years, that young open blinded moment is a must and I would never ever take it back, it taught me more than most of what I now know about love, your title is perfect, I would say to these young go live your love. A beautiful honest portrait of what in fact is love. ๐ŸŒน Wonderful.

Good write SB. Yes, I\'m an \'oldie\' preferring traditional stuff mainly. When something is re-done, or re-issued, I sometimes think \'Now you\'ve ruined it!\' Doh! There\'s a ghastly expression if some Psalms have been \'updated\'. We may say \'Now you\'ve murdered that Psalm\'.

Factory assembled bubble gum nothingness that lacks soul and will never move the cosmos like true art will. Truthfully, every generation has had this so long as a music \"industry\" has been around. Elvis, himself, got rich and famous off of the backs of some very talented people who happened to be \"the wrong color\" at the time. It is the very true and ugly underbelly of the music business. To each their own. As for me, I\'ve never been much of a radio listener. I\'m a music adventurer, but I do it on my own without the droning of the industry telling me what to consume! LOL! Well, I guess the industry still reaches us if we consume music of any variety, but I severely limit its reach! LOL! Well done on this Soren. ๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ‘

Well penned soren. The older I get the more I realize what a traditionalist I\'ve become. I always prefer the original to the remake, but on rare occasions I have raised my eyebrows at a version of a song I wasn\'t expecting to be impressed with. ๐ŸŽผ๐ŸŽถ๐ŸŽต๐Ÿ™‚๐Ÿ‘

I appreciate your affinity for music, and indeed, it has undergone significant transformations over the years. Well-written, Soren, your poem critiques the modern music industry, highlighting the artificiality and lack of authenticity in contemporary music. It juxtaposes the ephemeral nature of today\'s songs, created through technological means, with the rich, authentic experiences of music from the past. I like the way you use words such as \'recycled,\' \'discarded,\' and \'artificially flavored\' which conveys a sense of waste and lack of originality. Your aim is to provoke thought regarding the implications of technology on creativity and the value of genuine artistic expression in a world that often prioritizes commercial success over authenticity.

I am a vinyl person and always have been, there are very artists around these days that can actually sing live and it sounds like a record, and the art of writing great songs has long gone. Love this poem highlighting the artificial music they churn out today.

Very rarely is a remake better than the original and I for one would pick preferred versions and renditions. Maybe they are that good to pass up redoing? So perhaps not totally a lack of originality. Perhaps ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ•Š

How true, we all have our own taste, I say bring back the vinyl of the 70\'s that\'s mine. A thought-provoking piece. We have some of the finest singers in the world also in Italy. ๐ŸŒน

Wanting to exist until the end of time is our secret wish, isn\'t it? It has been demonstrated to us that this can be a living reality - if we are prepared to pay the price of entry!
Great write, Soren.

Carpe diem without conscience
Tristan Robert Lange said:

This is relatable on many levels. Living is a risky business, and yet we often ignore that fact. Nothing is guaranteed. What is really, truly known? And yet, the risk doesn\'t go away by staying stagnant in one place. So, we might as well intentionally risk living life and let the journey be our home. That is what I get out of this...that and the last line, so true. I think we all live like we will never die. It\'s a wonderful poem, and all around profound on this one! โค๏ธ๐Ÿ™

My Dad and both my brothers pushed boundaries, were talented in business, reckless in approach at times and two of them died young. They certainly lived for the day. The women in the family were far more cautious. This writing really makes one look inwardly and reflect on their own experiences. I am not a gambler in any way:) maybe I learned lessons. Great read Soren.

I enjoyed this read, take the gamble or play safe, or always a difficult question, but no progress has ever been made without taking a chance, lovely writing

I like this, \"Living on Edge,\" Soren. Your poem masterfully captures the thrill and uncertainty of living on edge, highlighting the dynamic interplay between the pursuit of freedom and the recognition of life\'s preciousness. It powerfully reflects on existence, mortality, and the choices that shape our lives, inspiring a deeper appreciation for the beauty and complexity of human experience.

Our freedom needs to be exercised and stood up for. No one ever pioneered nor thrived sitting down. A thesis well taken in this poem. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ

Living for today, as much as we may wish too, there hopefully will be a tomorrow so being cautious of what we do is a must some don\'t have that and live on the edge always, I\'ve lived both, I took a massive gamble with nothing to lose and I gained, yet not always the case. A brilliant peice of poetry dearest sorrenbarret that will.make many reflect on your lines. ๐ŸŒน Wonderful title too. ๐ŸŒน
