Yet - taking this humorously or seriously - I did once advocate in a fantasy, for cabbages to have a chance of ruling the country. My slogan was \'Cabbages Rule OK!\' But who knows? They might make a better job of things?

In my daftness, I\'ve bought a tree indoors on chilly nights - a big oak tree! Or so I say. Well, I felt it was chilly outside for the poor tree to stay out all night. lol. I don\'t think we can take plants as sentient (feeling) beings though, like we can we animals and humans. But we should be concerned about the environment, conservation, etc.
Btu since when was I sentient towards KP? heehee.

This feels patient and alive. I like how it treats plants as witnesses instead of objects.

Soren, this is a poem of recognition. You reveal a world already communicating, remembering, and sharing, without needing humanity’s permission. By the end, grace feels ecological, not abstract. Thoughtful and quietly profound work. I am a vegetarian...but the point you raise in your note is spot on. Life is life and we consume life to live. Period. What\'s weird is how we value some life over others...meat and veggies alike. Yet, our discrimination is based on what? Powerful stuff, my friend. Thank you for sharing.🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Yes, they are alive. Well-worded.Your poem revolves around the hidden life of plants, their ability to communicate, and their relationships with one another and their environment. The imagery evokes a sense of wonder about the intricate

Indeed, both plants and animals amaze us by their capacity to understand, sense and respond to stimuluses reaching them. For instance, the sunflower follows the path of the sun across the sky. It is said that upon sunset, they turn 180 degrees to face East again, awaiting the next sunrise. When they are laded with seeds, they are too heavy to turn.

An enjoyable Poem on Forgiveness.
Though my forgiving a rival Football team beating us the other week is asking too much. 😓.

Great! A testament to forgiveness, compassion, and resilience, guided by understanding and love.

Tristan Robert Lange said:

Soren, this is a meditation on mercy without illusion. You name harm plainly, forgive without spectacle, and end with peace that doesn’t need defense. By the final line, rest itself feels like the reward. And you are right, the nightly sleep…far more worth it than endless bitterness. Strong, grounded work. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Now look, a sensible comment - Fido must have written it! I think forgiveness must be unselfish, because if we forgive for entirely for selfish motives, it may not be true forgiveness. We have to make a choice to forgive. Being unforgiving is selfish, I think, in saying - I won\'t do it; I will never do it; etc.
Fido says it\'s too psychological for his master to write this, and that it would give him a headache and use up all of his 3 brain cells. (heehee).

Friendship said:

The poem raises questions as you claim forgiveness, yet experience sleeplessness. From my perspective, an uneasy conscience often leads to disrupted sleep, replaying the events of the day. This disparity adds to the poem\'s confusion.

The only danger - or one of them - seems to me to be that \'plaguey\' thing - plagiarising! But such ones won\'t survive poet\'s anger. lol.

Soman Ragavan said:

Indeed, there is danger in being a poet. The poet\'s power lies in his ability to wield words and languages. Physical weapons turn to rust with time. But the written words -- more so the words uploaded to the Internet -- never die... They cross where hard copies of books don\'t reach.

Tristan Robert Lange said:

Soren, this is a stark reckoning with the cost of voice. You show how expression becomes target, how sincerity gets hunted under the guise of judgment. By the end, the sickness isn’t the poet…it’s the gaze searching for one. Very strong, my friend. Love it! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

This poem reveals how words can both wound and illuminate, and the risks poets face in exposing themselves—yet they write anyway, using the act to express their truths and transform pain into something that endures beyond criticism.

On hazards, a nasty poet on another site commented on lots of poems - \'I don\'t care much for this poem!\' They may have hounded him off the site with a \'good riddance!\'
