Well said, my friend. Your poem delves into the themes of nature, introspection, patience, and the creative process. It emphasizes the importance of slowing down and listening to the subtle messages that winter—or by extension, any quiet period—can offer.

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Arqios, this reads as a meditation on persistence without spectacle. Meaning thins, faces weather, memory loosens its grip, yet presence remains. The poem doesn’t seek resolution…only the integrity of continuing upward. Powerful, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

\"Kindness travels the low path,
choosing its turns the way water does\" - this is a beautiful phrase, arqios. I enjoyed your poem.

Well written, your poem reflects on nature, the experience of existence, and the connections between movement, memory, and kindness. The imagery of hills and pathways symbolizes personal growth and the journey of life, while the references to natural elements suggest a deep connection to the environment and the passage of time.

This poem carries one on a journey through hills and dales to the river banks and rocky rills it is metaphorical as Melville was in his description of the sea and its meaning dives deep into the layers of being and mind into the conscious and subconscious even the unconscious mind. It is masterfully crafted and is an odyssey that although it appears calm and tranquil is not to be ventured not by the timid. A definite fave

Tristan Robert Lange said:
arqios, this reads as a metaphor for creation itself. Thought becomes motion, motion becomes structure, and structure stands without needing proclamation. The poem doesn’t build itself out of magic, but out of attention, patience, and trust. Beautifully done. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Brick by brick some with a master plan others built as they go. A wonderful blueprint of a poem\'s construction. Even the planed may be altered as it raises and with a builders care becomes an edifice of pride. Well done my friend
