A parent\'s burden
L. B. Mek said:
even reading your relationship disharmony, hopefully only momentary
is it wrong
I\'m still jealous, you\'ve been granted
the wondrous privilege of parenthood...
not all of us are so lucky my wise friend
remember that, next time you sigh

The seasons of a life
L. B. Mek said:
\'a small wooden mining house weathered white\'
\'my father’s face appears in my mirror
what I once feared now grows nearer
the snows of age in my hair today\'
genuine tears in my eyes
I am a witness to your bravery, dear Poet
this is my favourite of all your brilliant poems, cherished friend
thank you! stay strong
\'\'The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.\'\'

L. B. Mek said:
\'Here the inverted solar pendulum oscillates, swinging its refining forge to its peak, pouring molten gold from it\'s crucible.\'
\'His repose reveals the hour when the stitching of the clouds are rent asunder, spilling, from those pockets of the milky way\'
(just a privilege to share this inking journey with you
watching your artform evolve
!!!BRILLIANT!!!)

Wow! My head is reeling from the very scope of this masterpiece. The richness and texture all consuming with every stroke of the masters brush, for it becomes a sensory experience as he draws such imagery from his palette. Brilliant!

The primordial soup becomes more textured - words as rich as the reality must have been.

No matter how old they are, the tug of the heart string that connects them to you is unbreakable, expressed so beautifully in this poem. This one is very special, thank you.

If the chain is long enough you can still bowl with the ball and you won\'t have to have an automatic ball return. Thanks for the review Orchi

I murmured these words as I read the beautifully flowing lines, and they touched me so profoundly. Sweet, enduring memories that are etched indelibly on the heart. You made my day, thank you!

Breathtaking and lovely in its modesty and packed with allusions that trigger the reader\'s imagination and memory. Very little commentary, just the flow of the narrative and the universal humanity and vulnerability shared at the end. Wonderful!

Bigguy nailed it... a lot of modern verse is so stuffed with images and unexpected words it has little clear meaning or tone... this is mesmerizing and coherent and so sonorous it\'s perfect. I\'m saving this one.

The stunning imagery of each line fills my senses to the brim, in this beautiful poem. \"cobwebs of childhood dreams, sewn into pillowcase clouds, drifting on an upended sapphire sea of memories\", I love this so much. Your closing line captures it all dear friend, this is breathtaking!

There\'s a row about a \'wonky pub\' being demolished. New owners didn\'t care about it or its history.

You have given us a most accurate tableau of technology superseding our humanity, in perfect verse. Every line rings so true, you would think that the warning bell would wake us up, but when you wear earplugs you never hear it. Hats off my friend, for such an incredible write.

Doggerel Dave said:
Great to bring this topic into the arena of general speculation with your usual polish, Soren.
Here’s my take on this subject: AI will bring great change, and some of this will be good: searching, hunting selecting from massive data sets in medicine, to name just one discipline. Doubtless it will take over (and do better than) many human driven processes (job loss). In the wrong hands….and so on.
But become ‘more intelligent than\'…and take over…rule us.. just BS – The solution? PTP, Pull The Plug.
