This poem beautifully captures the fleeting nature of time and youth, with vivid imagery and a sense of longing.

A lovely write of the fear and anxiety of what lays ahead, very relatable write, I think we all had that in our teens, nicely expressed and written

The fear of the future and its responsibility is encased in this poem and reinforced with the clever word usage at the end in the last line and words.

It’s a natural fear. Just like I was so excited to hit 13 I was mortified of leaving 19… but soon learned to live each day to the fullest, minimising regret and maximising opportunities as they came along or were created. Good to hear you are okay. Your returned presence is great🙏🏻🕊️

Yes, it’s sad to be unable to do anything, like shattering glass all in slow motion! Hey Rocky! Happy New Year! It’s been so long… 🙏🏻🕊👍🏻

Train Wreck
sorenbarrett said:

A good metaphor and the formate of the poem aided in the presentation of an oncoming train. Nicely done

Hula Hooping Thru Insignificance
Bella Shepard said:

I can picture you hoola hooping that ring, dazzling. Einstein was a daydreamer, not bad company to be in. I\'d say you are perhaps in a waiting place, who know what is to come. My mother used to say good things come in small packages. Look at how people clambored when Pluto was deemed a dwarf planet. A clever and witty poem, and far from insignificant. Good one!

With political correctness the way it is I am surprised that they got away calling it a dwarf. A fun read that put a smile on my face. Nicely done.

Daydream for a while (but not too long). You\'ll make it, Rocky.
Imaginative analogy (I avoid metaphors when I can).

Great to see you. I look forward to greater input here.

The duality of love, acceptance and desire screams so loud in this piece Rocky, yet, at the same time, lovingly so. You weave a blessed pen my friend. 🙏🏼

I found that very neat and very funny, Rocky.... but then I always enjoyed something subtle, on the dark side....

Dearest Rocky, this touches my heart, my soul, my life. It is who you are and will always be. Your aunt is a very wise lady, I love the quote as I do this beautiful poem. God bless dear boy!

A fine write R.
I got lost with that bit of French in the middle (French - Eh?!) and rushed for the translate button. lol.

Doggerel Dave said:

Good for you, Rocky. Not going to say \'Best Wishes\' as it has undertones (or overtones) of Good bye - and I\'m pretty sure that isn\'t going to happen.

It is a perfect endeavor that I employ to clear my foggy brain. Just to say I was singing Barbra Streisand tubes out loud and my dog ran and hid. Who knew he disliked Streisand THAT MUCH??

My record\'s got stuck in the groove, I say, my records got stuck in..... etc!
Do shut up Orchi, say Fido my imaginary dog. Remember him, he barks at poets \'forgetting\' to mark certain poems 18+. lol.
