Pushback for me is when I\'m sitting on that flight waiting to go, as I have more than one home in the world I feel your poem has brought a large amount of nostalgia to me, very nicely done. 🌹

Time stops for no man. A sense of urgency here and almost a sense of finality? The number three is magical and is equated to the trinity. Mentioned three times twice it leaves a feel of incompletion in that expectation that it will come once more to complete a series of nine.

Your poems always leave a great deal of room for interpretation. I identified with a feeling of \"who have you angered now\" in that personal attacks often come through in critiques of a person\'s poetry. Evocative bringing on the provocative where envy and jealousy play a role. I loved image of hirsute thoughts bristling.

As is common with you, your words are captivating and pregnant with meaning. I loved the imagery from beginning to end. The first line vivid but also creative, the second line following up made great sense for someone scavenging then I imagined the play on words that could be associated with your desert and the word dessert. This would put a different twist to the meaning. The middle line \"In picture-book perfect gales brought an abrupt stop to the top thought and like the gale indeed blew away the phisical image created in the first stanza transforming it into the last stanza, a metaphor from the physical to the emotional. A most wonderful transformation and wonderful ride on that picture-book perfect gale indeed.

Well, I thought of ya by popping in here. Is that sufficient? Or ya want 20 \'likes\' if I could give them?! heehee.
We can cheat and \'like\' our own poems - but only once - one click. lol. We get caught out. On a second click on the \'like\' button, it goes back one number.

poetically breathe
sorenbarrett said:
It is often from emptiness that a poem emerges. That void as the pause in breathing is the beginning of the next breath or creation. Or maybe I\'m just blowing a lot of hot air. Beautiful none the less it has a feeling of peace to it just like a calm breath.

some things, we overlook
sorenbarrett said:
It is only when one is alone that one is free to express all that one has held inside. Simple on the surface yet deep below. The mask we wear with others is not what lies beneath. This seems mirrored in the very image of the poem where a toast may be expected, but the words we offer are not the emotions inside. Cheers Cryptic a poem to ponder over.

A great theme. So many times I have written something close to the heart, and carefully taken a good deal of time working it out to have it rated poorly and hardly reviewed at others something easily written and just a thought to rated highly and lauded by many. Now I write for myself. I admire many of your metaphors and imagry that seem naturally poetic.
