I like this,a bit confusing at first but it all makes sense when you think about it

Perspective
Bella Shepard said:

Question; does the whole perspective change if you\'re left handed? This was such fun, kudos for keeping it all straight, I think.

Perspective
Rocky Lagou said:

Yes. Your perspective, or your \"attitude\" towards life will really alter everything around you. It\'s powerful and we must always stay firm in our beings and our worth.

This is a great play with words and fearing a headache i gave up trying to figure it all out.

On reflection, if i turned around and looked over my shoulder would i have the right to feel i\'d been left behind?

Saudade
Rocky Lagou said:

This was wonderful, I can definitely relate to that sensation. Also my father is Brazilian so when I read the title I was like \"Yes!\" Normally I hear it used like \"I miss you.\" But it can also be taken like a wistful yearning. Well done!

Saudade
Bella Shepard said:

A beautiful poem that I can easily relate to. The older I get, the deeper I feel all the life I\'ve lived through those memories. I also wonder where did all that life go, and did I really do all those things. Yes dear friend, we did.

Lost Innocence
dusk arising said:

My grandchildren have just had their fourth and eighth birthdays. I found myself wondering what will be the childhood memories which will stay with them long into their adult years. I doubt I shall figure there as covid kept us apart and still does much to my displeasure.

That\'s where your two lines took me today. Bring on tomorrow.

Lost Innocence

yup, with each breath
we cherish
we accumulate distance

us at our, \'blank canvas\'

Love and Loyalty
Bella Shepard said:

Dear poet, wonderful symmetry, so pleasing to the eye in its composition, yet tugging at heart strings. It flows beautifully from one line to the next.You inextricably link the two most important things that a relationship should be based on. A wonderful read!

Matrimony
Bella Shepard said:

Love this take on matrimony, done with tongue in cheek. Gave me a chuckle. After 52 years of marriage it comes down to figuring out what makes your better half tick. Surprising the power you can wield with a little psychology. Guess I\'ve spilled the beans.

Bitter sweet
Bella Shepard said:

This poem evokes so many feelings. We tend to ruminate on the past, for better or worse, and sometimes simply owning it is all we can do. Often the most meaningful things can be said with a brevity of words. Thank you for your words.

Where all things meet

“ one thread in the fabric of the universe” so genius and ethereal. Beautiful write!

Bitter sweet
Arvy said:

Those lines really hit home, love the darkness in this one, gives it that force of reality. Brief yet deep, good write dear sorenbarrett

Where all things meet
dusk arising said:

Ah yes, isn\'t the human mind incredible to create romatic associations with the scientific realities all around us - the moon, the stars, rainbows - the fall of a shadow, the call of the wild.

Where would we poets be without this inspirational spark.

Great piece of poetry. I love it when a piece makes me reflect upon some things we take for granted - well I do anyway.

Where all things meet
Bella Shepard said:

All I can do is take a deep breath and exhale slowly, as I take in the depth of your words. How do body, soul, mind come together to form us thinking, feeling human beings? It\'s always a puzzle to me.

Knowledge pours through the northern doors
Rocky Lagou said:

Wow this was a journey. I love all these mythological and biblical allusion. It was so intense and intriguing and the final lines were a statement. \"I am that I am\" 💖

Wonderfully expressed! A beautiful short poem. Last line says a lot. great job!!

Where the heart is
dusk arising said:

Nice one because to appreciate your poem you have to see more than it\'s face value. The key is of course the last line.
It\'s all about love. Love the world and love being a part of it. It is our home.

Where the heart is
sorenbarrett said:

Thank you so much for your review and comment. I know that it is a touchy subject now days but men is used as a generic term for mankind in this sense.

Where the heart is
Rocky Lagou said:

Yes. This is so nice. It does continue to be a \"man\'s world\" but you can pave yourself a bright future. We must fight for equality and freedom. Well done!

Burnt offerings
Rocky Lagou said:

Wow this was deep. I mean it was detailed and evocative. It\'s sad truth that all centers on mental health. We need to support those suffering. May I ask, how did you \"accidently\" set fire to yourself? Like I understand accidently getting a kitchen burn but like your complete body? wow I hope you\'re okay.

Alone

I can relate to this so much, amazingly written with so much hidden depth!

Alone
Rocky Lagou said:

Very well done! This font was a little funny but I honestly like the way it befits the theme. An emotion very raw but surely felt at times.

Yet they all hate athists in godlike fashion.

The Jihadist
Bella Shepard said:

Very well said. The paradoxical nature of religion often confounds me.
