“How great would be a giant redwood tree fallen never seen…”
Indeed, when a tree is upstanding we can rarely assess its height. It is when it falls to the ground that we see its real LENGTH. Before that we could not see its real HEIGHT…
So, the universe is a ravine, a bottom pit into which we cannot see very deep.
As for unread poems, the poet goes mostly unnoticed in his lifetime.
“Poet is a posthumous epithet.” From the book “How to write poetry.”

One of our fave road trip songs was Rocky Top TN; we spent some time at Gatlinburg one winter and hiked that portion of the Appalachian trail towards NC. 🕊️🙏🏻

This poem breaks me—the cold, the cancer, the ghost of \'Ma\' answering a phone that never rings. Grief lives in the spaces between your words. Stunning and sorrowful.

I like this piece. We should all have empathy for others. Empathy lets people know that they are not alone in their pain. Keep writing.

Shakey chose some daft names for people, and verges on daftness at times I think. Not all his sayings are wise. Not that I\'ve read his Complete Works! lol.
I wish KP never saw the light of day, but she does. She never hibernates. heehee.

Your poem says a lot in just a few lines—it\'s a powerful reminder that even the greatest things can be forgotten if no one sees them. Simple, deep, and true.

“Can they hear the drops of tears?...” Tears are the product of suffering. The cause of the suffering might be loud, but tears themselves are noiseless...
Similarly in the next line, there is the splash of pain. Both tears and pain are the product of suffering.
“the flavor of a broken dream?...” “ this is sure a poetic way to describe the characteristic of a dream.
“I like walking in the rain, because nobody can see my tears.”
--Charlie Chaplin (1889-1977)
