This is nicely written with internal rhyme that carries a rocking meter giving a feel of surety to this piece. There are some great buildups and lines in this short piece \"For some will tread inside our head with heavy, muddy shoes\" What a great image this is. Loved it my friend

Good write A. I could do short poems too, I suppose. One said: \'\'Give up the desire to ever be complicated / long / involved / difficult / etc\'. lol.

Beautifully understated. It captures the feeling of hearing a small sound that somehow feels deeply personal, as if nature has singled you out for a quiet moment of connection.

Arqios, I love the restraint in this piece. The metaphor of the platform as a liminal space carries the whole poem, while the mingling of scents and the waiting train quietly reinforce that sense of living between worlds. The ending couldn\'t be more fitting. A wonderful write, my friend. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

This one conveyed to me that space between where one is neither home or anywhere else. On the way not arrived. Nicely written my friend

A fine write A. More to be found under the water, than above it.
But unfortunately for me, there\'s LESS to be found inside me head than outside of it. Well, I\'ve only 3 brain cells. lol.

Thereβs a beautiful stillness here, capturing the ocean as both a place and a living mystery.
The final lines open something larger, where watching a simple movement becomes a glimpse into the universe itself.

So interesting the idea that the universe is seen at different levels up and down from the smallness of quantum to the vastness of Newtonian views. Darkness of space darkness of the ocean each their own space. Nicely done Cryptic

Arqios, this really moved me. I especially loved \"to follow the fish through dark is to watch the universe move.\" The poem begins in the ocean, but by the end it feels like it\'s speaking about perspective itself...how wonder often lives in the things we choose to follow. Beautifully crafted, my friend. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

There\'s still more to discover under the water than there is in space.
I think the really dark ocean brings out some weird species that you really marvel at.
