Lovely untangling of darkness versus light...would love to see a connection of sunrise and sunset to them as well!

Your poem \"Glimpses\" revolves around the contrast between light and darkness, symbolizing hope and despair, as well as freedom and confinement. The poet reflects on the transient nature of light (day) and the inevitability of darkness (night), suggesting a struggle for liberation from the oppressive forces of despair. The imagery evokes a yearning for enlightenment and clarity amidst the overwhelming presence of darkness.

This poem captures the fleeting dance between light and darkness, where each moment of brightness feels precious and temporary. I was struck by how vividly you gave both forces agency; the night binding, the day breaking free. It left me with a quiet yearning for the next burst of light. ๐๏ธ๐๐ป

Weren\'t we once all so beautiful? So perfect before life\'s weather tainted our own? But isn\'t it lovely to see a naturally-made pearl, imperfect and lumpy...the bumpy pumpkins are certainly my favorite, and shattered glass is so lovely to look at

Hello Soren,
The accursed hourglass, no matter which way you turn it, it just keeps flowing. You have captured \'time\' succinctly in poetic perception and skill. Very well done indeed.
Fond regards,
Tony.

This gem is stripped to the boneโฆlean, direct, and all the stronger for it. Like a diamond in the rough. That image of crawling in circles twice a day says so much with so little. Youโve bottled time itself here, my dear friend. ๐น๐ค๐๐ฏ๏ธ๐ฆโโฌ

This poem revolves around the transient nature of life and the futility of trying to hold onto fleeting moments. It reflects on how we often desire things that are unattainable while grappling with the inevitability of time and loss. Sand in a bottle serves as a metaphor for time and experiences that are difficult to hold onto. Your poem likely aims to provoke thought about the human condition, encouraging readers to reflect on their own desires and the inevitability of time passing. It serves as a reminder of the beauty and sorrow inherent in existence.

In writing the metaphor \" broken trophy\" you spent your literary treasure.
Nothing is permanent.
In fact, we have to embrace death in order to live.

A fine write SB. I\'m horrible in saying - Ahhh, a super list of things to give to KP for Ch......! lol. Woof! You don\'t really mean it, says Fido to me.
I recite that magpie thingy to her, but it goes: One for sorrow, two for sorrow, three for sorrow, etc. hehehe.

Your poem \"Broken\" explores the theme of loss and the impermanence of beauty, reflecting on how something once pristine can become tarnished and undesirable due to life\'s struggles and conflicts. It explores the feelings of regret and melancholy associated with deterioration, both physical and emotional. The metaphor of a broken trophy symbolizes dreams or relationships that have been damaged or diminished over time. I relate to the human experience of feeling flawed or defeated after facing challenges.
