You have captured in words the moment and excitement of the hunt. It is not the trophy but the thrill of the tracking the tension of looking sensing not the trigger pull. This poem is so sensitive to the process and so well worded that it deserves a fave

There’s a certain kind of writing that isn’t about endings at all, but about the breath that happens in the middle of making something , the part where thought loosens, where sound and sense lean toward each other, and where the act of shaping words feels as alive as the thing being shaped. This piece lingers in that space, catching the quiet voltage between attention and arrival. It’s an invitation to listen in.

While there seems to be a ghost of beauty haunting, the more ghastly and macabre reality playing out routinely overrides this coldly. Beautifully rendered in delicate and deliciously eloquent simplicity with a cruel poignancy haunting. Thank you very much for sharing.

At first puzzled, I reach inside, a child in ignorance searches sounds, signs hard rocks, amidst the noise the inner child sits protected. Not much of an interpretation but it is all I\'ve got mate

Good write, arqios. A cautionary illustration: when everybody goes in the same direction, it can\'t end well.

What a beautiful poem!!!!
The way you have connected the imagery of the bay, mangroves and the tide to describe the connection between 2 strangers is stunning. Well done!!

Could be a story from the \'Twilight Zone\'.
A lot to think about. Good one.

This frankly is intriguing, the seeming acquaintance more of a ghost than tangible, if I comprehend your lines. Curious and haunting, excellently rendered with nigh exquisite imagery and a lingering poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

Set on Brisbane’s river edge, Moreton Mirror drifts from a simple meeting at the ferry pier into something far more uncanny. With imagery steeped in tide, mangrove, and jacaranda, it folds the landscape into a portrait of connection (or reflection ) that hopefully lingers long after the last line.

Don\'t we all have this mirror image the reverse reflection of ourselves that we sometimes recognize in others, some of whom become shadows. A lovely write. Cryptic and deserving of a fave
