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.

It\'s the \'Late Sunlight\' that speaks to me.
Of not wanting to let go. To keep the Autumn alive. Enjoyed.

A poetic still life painting with metaphoric meaning (at least to me that sees metaphor in everything) the darkening of the season. Short but pregnant with meaning. A time of harvest.

Yes, and that plague-y thing - plagiarising - throws poets into a rage! One person, not on MPS, actually posted a photo of himself while pinching another person\'s words. Responses from poets included F, F, F, and F! (ooh!).
