Castle Keep
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Indeed. Sandcastles, and our lives, are temporal. The tide carries the sand in for the keep to be built...and, lo, before you know it, the tide carries it back out again. Wonderfully powerful metaphor, my friend. 🌹👏

And such is childhood with its growing change simple, honest views of splendors beyond comprehension, and disillusionment with the erosion of time\'s tides. In older reflection one leaves footprints that one realizes will be swept away with each incoming wave. This poem carries feelings of youthful amazement, and ages resignation. Nicely done Cryptic

Ah, thus quoth the wizened sage, holding up a shriveled finger to the more youthful listener who was still too immature to fully grasp what was being said, yet caught the import. Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a lingering poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

\'Tis True. We are but dust. Here one minute, floating off in the breeze the next. What lingers on? What remains. While people who knew us are alive, memories. Regardless, our echoes linger on, bouncing from place to place until they are heard no more. Profoundly powerful and true. Well done on this, friend! 🌹👏

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Sorry it took me all day to get to read this. Been one of those days. Wow, friend, this is brilliant and I really mean that. This is one of my faves of yours and you have many of those, lol! Your poem is a poignant exploration of the human need for wholeness and the emotional turmoil of feeling incomplete. It left me with a sense of hope, as Echo continues its search for reunification with its shadow. A most unique retelling of a Greek mountain nymph and her deep loss. Well done on this! 🌹👏 Bravo!

Loved the use of nouns and adjectives as entities. A most poetic use of language in metaphor itself creating a metaverse.
