This poem reminds me very much how I had to encourage our Robbie as a three year old to eat his veg. We had to play games. Lots of them. Airplanes incoming. The spoon descending from a height with a full load and then a handclap when the cargo landed safely in a little open mouth. It worked a treat. Your stew looks delicious. Straight down the hatch. Yummy.

Wow , Nice Poem about the Journey through life to the Present age . Something I can relate to. With ‘Dreams’ and ‘Ambitions ‘ Won or lost. Saddest words in the English language are ‘What might have been’. Good one.

I have never been much of a soup fan...but stew...now you are talking. And, damn, if I had a dragon in my stew I would be playing as opposed to eating! LOL! Such a fun poem that warmed the cockles of my heart as surely as a bowl o\' warm stew would warm and satiate my belly. Well done, friend! 🙏❤️

As a child used to look at the soup and imagine things now I eat it to fast for pictures to form. Several metaphors here and yet the main plot seems litteral and delicious

Yes nice One. It must have been a Solitary life for these people, but a important one.
When I was a Kid I always wanted to live in a Lighthouse, don’t know why. ( Calling Dr Freud, Patient to see you).
A good write.

Tristan Robert Lange said:

Ah the loss of innocence...and in particular I like how that loss comes through with the crumbling or loss of the sandcastle. A brilliant extended metaphor, my friend. Well done! 👏🌹

I remember these feelings so well. This poem capture the sad and wonderful moments of childhood and how they fade into adulthood.There is a great sadness in this process. But the heart still remembers how to dream.Wonderful line and amazing poem

Cryptic This is a beautiful write that details that right of passage to manhood detailing the shadow side. It reads with a bit of sadness and retains a taste of hope.

There has always been something most intriguing about the lighthouse and how they keep the shore from the ships and vice versa and how in great storms the lighthouse is the hero in the storm. 🌹

Love lighthouses. Also loved the Robert Eggers\' film The Lighthouse. But that is neither here nor there. This is a wonderful poem, my friend. Well done! 🌹👏

sorenbarrett said:

The poem resonates with me because I from time to time live on that rocky shore within a stones throw of a lighthouse and I hear those wave meet the shore. The metaphor is iconic as well and like the waves keeps coming back. Very nicely written
