Wow, my friend, I can feel so vividly in many of the lines in this text. The place where the line between pain and pleasure can blur. Excellent and very captivating. Thanks for sharing. Best regards.

We will notice that the cactus is surrounded by spikes and thorns; these guard against some predators. Yet, the flowers are still useful and within reach of creatures like bees and butterflies. Thus, the working of nature ensures that some creatures do get to the flowers.

Well written,Soren. Succulent revolves around the transformative power of beauty and pain, particularly in the context of desire and attraction. The cactus serves as a metaphor for love or desire, showcasing how something that appears alluring and beautiful can also be a catalyst for growth and self-discovery. The subject matter touches on themes of temptation, the liberating consequences of desire, and the wisdom gained from past experiences, suggesting that while beauty can be enticing, it often comes with hidden opportunities for empowerment.

How age takes its toll not just in appearance or physically, but on our remaining hope and dreams as time repidly runs out, enjoyed the read

Soman Ragavan said:

The years take their toll, little by little. When we look at pictures of ourselves going back a long time, we refuse to believe that we have changed so much. Yet, age wreaks its havoc little by little. Not only physical features, but mentally too we age.

Friendship said:

Your poem seems to be evoking reflection on the human condition, particularly the inevitability of aging and the loss of aspirations, prompting readers to confront their feelings about time and hope.
Overall, the poem encapsulates the bittersweet nature of life, capturing both the sorrow of lost dreams and the weight of time’s passage.

Good write SB. I said to KP \'If it ain\'t broke; don\'t fix it\'. She replied \'The ball and chain that I locked on your ankle ain\'t broke, so I won\'t fix it, I will leave it on you!\' lol.

Head of wheat
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Great metaphor, my friend. Not just chaff blowing in the wind, this wheat is an essential ingredient to life. There\'s many ways this can be interpreted to. The wheat and the vine draw up images of the Eucharist, for me, among other things. So, whether one is reading this metaphor more straight forward or whether one is divining mystical insights, this poem delivers all the way around my friend. Well done!!! 🌹👏
