There\'s a different romance to the darkness, and then again, there\'s perspective. Where one sees charming vistas another sees misery. Shall you remind me of, \"... that they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after Him and find Him, though He be not far from every one of us: for in Him we live, and move, and have our being;...\" (Acts 17: 27-28a)? Regardless, put on the kettle and I hope you find an ability to enjoy it, no? Beautifully rendered with exquisite imagery and a haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

Your poems always make me think. Besides the beautiful images created by your poetic words there appears a message here. My view is that the (wind) that stirs the thought that then (dances) the light goes off and thoughts (shift) though the darkness of the mind there is a (ripple) in the words (whispers) emerge then thoughts liberated (glide) unimpeded as a song or stream. Well it was just a first thought and try. Loved it

Indeed. The sun does always return, though it can feel like it won\'t. You are heading into the dreaded Fall/Winter months, aren\'t you? Prayers, my friend. I do know, as you well know, the struggle. Be well, my friend. 🌹👏

I said summat, but it deleted it. Doh! I wanted to add another bit, saying it\'s increasingly light for us in the UK, until mid-June. Are you upside-down to us, in Australia? Or are we the ones that are upside-down?! lol. If this poem is about the literal weather. You know me - I hardly get any cryptic meanings to poems!

One does not need to go far to find the most important answers. A most beautiful poem of truth and inner warmth and safety as well as what is of most value. Nicely done Cryptic

I do not know this story, I read the write as the past meeting the present igniting feelings we had in younger days, that sadly are no longer true however much we wished they were, I found it very enjoyable

Ah, my friend…what you’ve done here is more than revisit a childhood tale—you’ve rekindled its soul. This reads like a conversation between Skin Horse and the reader, and I feel deeply honored that our exchange played even a small part in this poem’s becoming. Lines like “shabbiness glows” and “the touch of belonging” cut straight to the heart of what made The Velveteen Rabbit so timeless. Most excellent. An easy fave. 🕊️🌱📖🌹
