Solace, revisited
Kevin Hulme said:
I think we all have our part of the Day that we can feel perfect Solace. With me it\'s a cup of Tea and a good Book. And with the way it is in some Countries: War etc. We are indeed fortunate. A fave .

There is a quiet sense of being to this poem. A settled feeling that feels like one belongs and always has. Nicely done Cryptic

Love how complexity is disguised in simplicity in your work. Love the combination of the two languages. Even though my Spanish is weak for these short phrases it is sufficient. Metaphor makes love to imagery in this interchange and out of that marriage mood and thought are born as twins.

Never more pure, our oddities are not to embarrass us but give us the depth and texture of character that are lost to those shallow, surface readers. 😃👍🏻

The Innocence of those Childhood days .
Never Recaptured in Adulthood.
When younger I remember watching an Australian TV Programme called \'The Magic Boomerang\'. Fond memories. Just thought I\'d mention it.

You are a very good writer I like the way you link things from past to present and how things magnanimous can destroy

There’s a damn bittersweet ache here, because something once tied to “pristine joy” has become almost unreachable under the weight of growing up and everything that comes with it. The final line is the keeper, because the memories themselves become the thing that hurts, turning childhood pleasure into a quiet reminder of what can’t be recovered.

How true for many that convert to the idea that there is no time for pleasure as an adult as opposed to those that never grow up and expect nothing but pleasure. Somewhere in the middle is healthy ground. A good write my friend

Each one of us is here for a reason and I think we should never feel that we are an imposition on anyone- let us recognize our own worth in others lives and be happy to have made a/any difference for someone else 🙏🏼

I see the Coin as a Metaphor for the small gifts that invade our life\'s. Sometimes to small to Notice. But all add up.

Are we all such? One has to think yet so hard to break thoughts free from their routine. Do we not all live in grace? Unrecognized grace for just being here. A lovely write my friend it is thought provoking.
