Most creative Cryptic this time span, evolution and intertwining of poems with evident evolution over time marking the concept itself. Very clever.

Well written, your poem \"Games We Play\" explores the complexities of communication and connection in modern relationships, particularly in the digital age. It emphasizes the tension between the desire for authentic emotional connection and the superficial interactions that often dominate our lives.

\'At your dawn I pin my doubts to linen white, while chords of conflict bruise my fragile calm;\' did it for me. As if out of a dream to be bruised by the reality of me. The poem as a whole is superlative in its composition and beautiful in its portrayal. I love how the stanzas get thicker as they approach the inevitable dawn - the light bearing down on the darkness and the sleeping poet sensing the change of a day anew. Very well done, arqios, accolades galore for this one.
Wishing you all the very best,
Tony.

A fine write, a beautiful poem arqios. I fell in love with the first six lines. The short-order cook in me kept feeling for a couplet at the end of each. Rendering four beautiful poems.

I was taken by the regularity of meter amidst changing rhyme scheme that like waves on the sea came against the shore in differing size. It was the rhythm and varying rhyme that took me most the wording aided in giving a soft and flowing feel to the work and of the lines I think my favorite were:
In fiery fonts I bind our sacred vow,
as embers dim and twilight takes its bow.
Beautiful imagery here. a fave

… sharing a newish poem today that dives into our midnight exchanges and the sunrise reflections they spark, no spoilers, just the rhythm of screens and dawn. Which image or line hit home for you? How do you feel when the glow of your device meets the first light of morning? I’d love to hear your take. 👍🏻📝🕊️🙏🏻

The resiliance of the human spirit in this poem gives hope to all. We have all that we need to begin again, we have each other. Beautifully told!

Hope in rebirth whether seed or mankind matters not. A lovely work I love the work of Russians and that area. It is often dark and tragic but often blooms with hope. Nicely done Cryptic

🌱 “The Seed Beyond Memory” closes the Cherry Orchard Suite with a quiet promise of rebirth beneath loss. In its soft echo—roots unraveling, laughter on the breeze, seeds stirring—what endures beyond the felling?

My friend, this is soft but certain...like a hand held out in the rain. The repetition of “right” becomes something deeper here—not about precision, but presence. That final line lands quiet and true. A love poem disguised as a compass. 🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
