How fragile hope. This poem strikes me of the balance between hope and its dying and a need to keep the fire kindled. Tea cups a symbol of seeing the future as hope does. Broken symbolizes lost hope. Sisters indeed the duality of hope and its loss and how closely they are related. A most wonderful write

ode to Goldfinch
Cheeky Missy said:
One of my youngest brothers called the goldfinches \"banana birds,\" and only much later did I begin to learn their calls are like laughter, rendering Andy\'s choice of a moniker the sweeter for all that. What an absolutely gorgeous tribute to the relationship you two have enjoyed, how beautifully rendered with exquisite imagery and a delicious poignancy. Thank you so very much for sharing. I love, love, LOVE it. Here\'s to many more years! P.S. I love the \"red priest\" and his piece to those dear songsters.

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Rik, this is as elegant as the music that inspired it. The language sings...light, reverent, and full of affection. “Your words became the wingbeat under mine”…wow.. A worthy ode to Andy and a beautiful work in its own right. Bravo, my friend. 🌹👏

This is so finely written. “Each word a spark against dusk”…is a line that really held me. The poem feels like Trofimov himself… earnest, restless, standing just outside of where he belongs. Quietly raging, but never shouting. Beautifully done, my friend. You are a master poet, imho. 🌹👏

Beautiful so loaded and layered with social, political and economic implications. (I thirst for a world unbound by debt.) Total destruction of capitalism. The earlier lines speak of communist revolution and dream but as a dream it too did not work out in reality. A lovely write

My friend, this is great fun indeed…sun-splashed, cheeky, and low-key profound. That opening image… “rings your bell at sparrow-light”…absolutely nailed it for me. “Sparrow-light”. Seriously love that.. And the socks tangoing? Poetry in jocks and gumboots. Small rebellions indeed. Beautifully done. 🌹👏

Wow, just WOW. Chock-full of delicious, evocative imagery, rendered gorgeously in such disarming seeming simplicity, and haunted by a winsome, waltzing poignancy, this is too beautiful. I love, love, love it! Thank you so very much for sharing.

I probably got lost with any cryptic meanings at Part 1. Woof! Fido says to me - you never get many cryptic meanings anyway!
I will ask him to de-crypt them, as he of course knows 99% of everything. lol.
