The images merit pondering in this poem. With rhyme as well it spins its tale. Real and fanciful the images pull at ones mind the caterpillar and butterfly of the second stanza and the last stanza of the sun as a springless clock seen in its coils. Very nice in its subtlety a fave

in Wordsworth was my father\'s voice
Cheeky Missy said:
Wow. You leave me breathless, and half delirious in concluding, sweetly fainting, half drunk on your delectable lines weaving a fantastical tale which takes my soul off on flights of fancy so dreamy I never want to leave. Gorgeous and beautifully rendered with exquisite imagery and a delicacy whose inherent poignancy makes me swoon. Thank you so very much for sharing. I love, love, LOVE it.

Excellent write, arqios. Dads can be overwhelming. I grieved mine with short-form poems. Still do.

It is the quaint familiarity that some how is not easily identifiable that gains the fave in this poem of tribute. A most lovely write

This should be the mantra of the world as it is poignant, and it all endorsed, aided and abetted by our use and reliance on technology, enjoyed the read

At first I took this for a critique on technology that has separated us but then it seemed far deeper that technology is merely the tool and that we have been separated all along technology has just made it easier as a wedge to split the log. We say we love, care and want peace but since when has that ever been the case? Has there ever been peace, has there ever been a time without domestic abuse, a time without theft, murder, genocide? it is just more easily accessible and visible now. A call to action but maybe you can\'t make a silk purse out of a sow\'s ear. A fave

light between shadows
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Beauty begins, but does it ever end…even in death. I have seen some of the most beautiful deaths in my, granted I have seen some real ugly ones…but here’s the thing, it wasn’t ever death that was “ugly”. NO. It was the dying part. The pain, the suffering…but the, the peace. This poem expresses all of that to me. The serenity that goes from light to darkness…though, we may feel a bit uncertain as the light dims, we find that the light is no more than a veil obscuring our view. Or at least that is what I am getting out of this. Regardless, I love it my friend! A LOT. 🌹👏
