nice take on Themis the goddess of divine law and order. Let us hope she weight Putin\'s crimes and applies appropriate punishment

I agree with Neville that you have captured the essence of this lady.

If only the purity of her virtue were realised in the practice of law and justice in our system.

As I read your poem my head is reeling and my mind is saying \"Yes, yes, oh my goodness Yes\". When a transformative moment, such as you describe hits you it is cause to rejoice. Beautifully written. Thank you!

I ain\'t no butterfly. I\'m cooped up here in this cocoon thingy. I will only spread my wings when I sing proper.
\"Ohh, it will be never, then!!\" Aww, they are horrible to me, saying that. But I started it all off, saying I\'m the world\'s worst singer.
They are gonna report me for insulting cats, cos they say \'It\'s much worse than two cats fighting\'. Doh!
Oh, it\'s all nutty! hehehehe.

A fine write Rocky.
Yes, the day I began poetry - a fine day!
The day I began singing - a day of doom for all! (heehee).
Well, they all think it\'s two cats fighting.

Hello rocky .. I love this .. I never used to write at all ., but I feel like i can’t help but want to write sometimes , as if it’s just who I am and part of me

This is engaging to read .. sad that the butterfly passed away ., how it inspired one to write .. sometimes we end up changing from that caterpillar into a butterfly .. or atleast into more freedom and I guess we can have that with writing .. a sense of freedom

I like your story ! 🙂 I once saw a butterfly on the ground struggling and it made me feel sad

Putin I expect will take seriously ill soon and will pop his clogs. They\'ll make him a hero as befitting as that seems, then the decent Russian people will rebuild Ukraine.

Keep that blue and yellow flag flying……..Putin will get his punishment probably by his own….if they have any sense at all

Another fine one rocky!!!
\"History never repeats itself, but it rhymes\"; It\'s we who could not identify Where, How, and What unexpected happened and failed to learn from those events. I genuinely feel rather than following someone\'s perspective. One should look carefully into these events; so we refrain from being a part of the blind herd. And yes, never bypassing the fact that the \"whole world is watching\".
Hoping; for all this to end soon.

I\'ve read a few poems about the war in the last couple of days and yours is one I really like (if there is something like that). War is beyond words and one struggles to talk about it in any context. But because you use so few words per line and leave room for the reader this actually feels real. I also think it\'s really good that you don\'t use the word \"I\".

We all need peace for the whole world Rocky but many just will not be that way.
May peace always be with you.

Dhanya said:

l thought this was a very beautifully done poem. There is so much wisdom in your words of acceptance and understanding for the hopes of peace. You seem to be giving the much-needed vibes about how nonviolence can be done. Good Job!

So eloquent dear Rocky

Yes it seems that historically one thing we never learn from is history. It\'s hard for me to watch the news cause I feel helpless. all I can do is pray. But your poem is excellent and was worth the read.

Political issues never end. But poetry and music lift us beyond. For the occasion put on fish (Pisces) with Jinjer. (They are a Ukrainian female fronted Heavy Metal Band) Listen to the words. Well done

Welcome to the world of 575s - a great form if you forget the strict rules and just maintain the syllable count - great 575s by the way.

We\'ll Be the Sunrise! (Haiku/Senryū #2)
junia said:

I really like this, Rocky! Especially \"cry with me once more\". It\'s not about suddenly giving up crying, but about slowly getting better, choosing to be happy. The sunrise is a great metaphor. You think it might take a long time but at one point you look up and the sun has risen and you wonder how it got there so quickly. That\'s how it goes with being happy as well.

What a beautiful and well written poem! i get the religion and the purity of it you write about, if not careful, it can turn people off. Wonderful and engaging poem!
