I, too, thought you were poetising about some hard man and then to discover it was a lady by Jove and a famous one at that - Aphrodite. It\'s great to be caught off guard especially after such a fine and powerful introduction. I was engrossed and then stunned, stunned in a delightful way. How I love a good surprise. A great poem.
Kind regards,
Tony.

Can\'t as usual work out what your metaphor is this time Soren, but I tell you what, I\'m glad I\'m secure inside four walls with the door locked.....

When eyes glow, it\'s time to flee, especially so when in a jungle and even more so at night. A brave man you are to have undertaken such an adventure. A high tension verse, cemented with fear before a foreboding green glow and so deftly rendered with poetic flair. Well done, Soren.
All the very best to you,
Tony.

A stunning visual of the darkness, forests have always given me the creeps, I couldn\'t tell you why though, darkness turns to light and the moment moves along with the ghost. Super 🌹

The trees do not answer,
the night does not yield.
It appeared, then vanished—
not a beast, not a shadow,
but something else, unseen,
something heretofore waiting.

truer words were never spoken. the innocence of kids is a wonder to behold, and shines out from their fresh and beautiful faces, until the world starts polluting their impressionable minds

Weeds grow
Soman Ragavan said:
It is indeed strange how unwanted weeds wield such power, such strength. (Hello ! Four W\'s here : alliteration kicked in by itself....) They are bent on frustrating us. Whereas good, useful stuff we plant needs care and water, weeds thrive on nothing; they survive even drought or floods. Even when they disappear, they will reappear at some stage, as if by magic. They push out what we planted, what we need. When a plot of land is abandoned, weeds start taking over the place. The vegetable kingdom is amazing. Plants that start small and fragile end up splitting concrete, rocks....
\"...the rock that is not split with the long iron crowbar, splits when the roots of a tender shrub enter it.\" --(Ed) T. B. Krishnaswami : “TEN TAMIL ETHICS.” Madras, India : The South India Saiva Sidhanta Works Publishing Society, 1937. Full acknowledgements are made to the authors, publishers and rights-holders.
Tender-looking leaves weave their way through asphalt and gaps in concrete and come up to see the light of day. Little by little they will end up spitting the harder stuff.

Soren, you have crafted a deeply meaningful piece that resonates with me. I see it as a message to not let the negative get hold of your mind. I enjoyed reading it and absorbing its message.

Quite the goddess, Aphrodite. This is a powerful poem that, as I read it, speaks of resilience and strength, and a longing for someone who made quite a life long, loving impact. Well done, friend. 🌹👏

Oak stands tall in gale and storm,
No tearing down what’s weather-worn.
The flame still flickers in the night—
A name we whisper, holds us tight.

I love the line : \"Defeating dragons, they fly where no one dies.\"
It, to me, signifies strongly that state of nostalgia or memory that never dies. It\'s with us forever. Like captured in time, almost. I\'m not finding the right words to explain what I mean, sorry 😂
Beautifully written, thanks for sharing your talent with the world!
