Well written, your title gave it away,The poem explores feelings regarding the death of their poetic expression. could be interpreted as the internal landscape of the poet\'s mind, a place filled with lost ideas and unfulfilled potential. You seem to suggest a moment of introspection—perhaps during a creative block or a period of self-doubt.\"You \" centers on the need to articulate the pain of artistic failure, highlighting its emotional toll on the creator. The poem acts as a catharsis for the poet, enabling them to confront and articulate their grief over lost creativity.

This is a sobering piece.There is a touch of sadness at the fact that some poems are regarded as imperfect and in fact dead. But really you have to trust your audience.they will see things you never thought were there. This is a powerful poem that made me think.Well done

This is strong and emotional. It shows the pain of losing creativity in a powerful way. The images used—like poems being buried or lost—are clear and moving. It feels very real and honest.

I must say you caught me off guard today with this poem; well written, definitely out of character, but I had to read it twice. Then, finally understood it! Your poem beautifully explores the journey of aging, loss, and resilience in the face of health challenges. The poem reflects on the transformative power of growing older, embracing memories of a deceased mother, and finding strength in the lingering presence of love. You have an uplifting theme of hope, renewal, and the preciousness of time, as well as the unbreakable bond between the Poet and their mother. This poem serves to convey the emotional complexity of dealing with aging and loss, fostering empathy and understanding for those facing similar experiences.

“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.
