A sonnet of love indeed that spells the intricate web of love and how once spun it catches us victim. Like a cut diamond it has many facets that each have their own story and view and like that diamond held too tight it cuts. Very nice my friend

Not sure how political you wanted to make this Rik, but to me it is the call accompanying labor\'s struggle with capital everywhere. Great stuff.

I wondered if I could set a tune to this. The verses are almost in 8.8.8.8. (often used in some hymn tunes), plus the chorus in 8.7.8.6. Can\'t think of a tune just now though.

This brings to mind a kind of rallying call I imagine being sung in the dark and grim streets of early post war Britain .. It also reminds me of the troubled times of my own youth during the recession .. and so very many other things besides .. a great post arqios .. neville with a small N

Not only a song, poem but a hymn. A battle cry if you would. I hear it raise as a gathering army comming to battle with life.

Melancholic and haunting a reflection that glimers in the bottom of a dark well the font of inspiration. Lovely and haunting.

No matter when it began exactly .. or how long I can make it last for .. that precise moment, despite so often trying to recollect it has always so far eluded me .. and I imagine might always do so .. a fine reflection my friend .. Neville

A lesson too often learned by too many people. Pain is a negative reinforcement and is best used to prevent further dangerous behavior in such cases is seems the best solution. Nicely written with such a good flow

Well, well, a tidy little bit of exposure and neatly tied up lesson. While I\'m still disinclined to try it, this is very sweetly rendered with excellent imagery and none too subtle poignancy. Thank you very much for sharing.

All of the above in a celebration of Ginkgo biloba. Been around for a very long time.... worked? I don\'t remember... Last line summary great, Rik.

Used to decrease aspects of dimentia seems a clue to the title\'s tie to the poem. The poem itself is masterful in its wording feeling wistful and the last line is genius in its tying of hope, regret and forgetfulness into their relationship. Lovelu

a rude remorse
sorenbarrett said:
Now Cryptic this one requires thought. I like to think of my ink well as a wishing well but sometimes it goes dry. Now people have said that what I write is sometimes rude but putting down the pen being rude that I\'ve never been accused. I guess you are right it would be the most rude to myself.

The Burden of Upgrades
sorenbarrett said:
Cryptic each stanza has its own depth and deep it goes. I initially was taken by the first stanza in its tightness of thought and expression so nicely worded. Upon second reading it was the second stanza that stood out and upon the third reading it was the third. Then the last two lines. Masterfully worded this sonnet might we say is a work of art.

Works for me as son - father relationship over time, and as such has a tone of veracity about it.
