Lovely poetic metaphors play in this poem of musical images a painting of the unseen but felt. Very nicely done my friend it tickles the mind.

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!

Veritably haunting with exceptional imagery and a clinging poignancy which refuses to be silenced, rendered in disarming simplicity. Beautiful and resonating. Thank you for sharing.

Entertaining and delightful, yet painfully familiar. I once put out and APB for my shadow. One hopes for the sweet reunion of self and shadow. Thanks for sharing.

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

Beautifully expressed arqios. Poetry has certainly been a companion to me in good times and dark. Introduced to it by my paternal grandfather as a youngster, he certainly gave me a valuable gift there. A lifetime gift. A lovely write.

I loved this. I think your poem captures something fascinating about power in society. Far from being clear or evident, the systems that shape our lives are often foggy and covered by mist. It reminds me a bit of Foucault\'s \'Discipline and Punish\'.\"

Tell me I wasn\'t naughty to feel I\'d been there thanks to you and this exquisite translation of life where I\'ll probably never truly taste it, yet believe I have, because of this. Deliciously rendered with excellent imagery and a sweetly haunting poignancy. Thank you very much for sharing your expertise. I love it.

Good ole Mister Rogers, dear, curious Sesame Street, Ernie and Bert, Big Bird and Little Bird, the Count, Cookie monster and all his friends, Oscar the Grouch in his garbage can home, I still remember the stories from the 20 book series we read and reread a thousand times back in the day. How you adroitly dredge all up in a heartbeat. La. Rendered to effect in brevity with excellent imagery, thank you for sharing.

What never yet rather fails to baffle me is how poets and poetesses manage to translate reality into the exquisite facts fewer succeed at comprehending, despite being half aware. Superbly rendered with gorgeous imagery and a wonderfully haunting poignancy, thank you very much for sharing.
