I love your opening lines
I walked so far but there is so little I know
just not enough time in one\'s lifetime. 🌹 Wonderful poetry.

I am always staggered by how little I actually know in relation to others, but one thing I do know is arrogance is not a nice quality, enjoyed the read

\"there is so little I know...\" We think we have seen a lot, we have gone through a lot. Still, life surprises us everyday. We get surprises even at home, even from people we have known for years... Life is full of surprises. In fact, the signs were always there, it is just that we did not notice, we did not know where to look.

Dance with the wind
rrodriguez said:
This is so alive, so rhythmic! So full of energy. It paints wind as a force of motion and freedom. I love to feel the wind. I live next to the mountains, and the wind is so wonderful. This is excellent! I enjoy reading about the wind.

Just old
Keeter C said:
My best friend is of an age I will never get.
Birthed she did but did she ever regret?
In old age I try to make amends as much as I am able.

Pebbles
Soman Ragavan said:
We will notice the fleetingness of the following :
--melting snowman
--burning log
--eaten meal
--sand castle washed away
--ice sculpture melted
-- a song sung, with the echoes lost
The metaphor of the pebble skipping on water is an intriguing one. You drop the pebble vertically and it sinks. You flip it horizontally and it skips over the water for some time, bounding over, but it will finally sink. The ripples that arise will disappear.
Many scenes of fleetingness.
Poets seek immortality through their works.
“(On GAUTHIER). In a world in which everything is impermanent, the poet, by rearranging reality into art, can create something that will have more permanent value. ...... Art can thus provide the poet with a solace for his mortality while he is alive and the hope of immortality in death….” \"TWELVE FRENCH POETS. 1820-1900. AN ANTHOLOGY OF 19TH CENTURY FRENCH POETRY.\" London : Longmans, Green and Co., 1957. (Third impression, 1959). (With an Introduction and Notes by Douglas Parmée).

Dance with the wind
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Love the wind and love to dance. Love this metaphor even more...though this could just be taken literally too. I\'ve witnessed such days around a clothes line. And guess whose childhood butt had to go pick the pins up? 🤣 Excellent job, Soren! 👏🌹
