Criptic this is a metaphor so applicable to many things from romance to work not done, ideas never implimented, intentions left undone, words not spoken and life not lived. A masterpiece lit

sorenbarrett said:

Etched in stone can still be altered by someone else and memories can be changed with which history past and the present becomes something else. Reunification becomes possible

Wow. Couldna profit Robbie Burns frae bonny Sco\'land...nay, the profit\'s all the sellers and marketers. Readers may find their ain way in\'t and leave the enjoyment at that, wherever they find it. But la, in lieu of the luxury of a copy, how exquisitely you\'ve capably rendered this, complete with a display to evocatively convey the delicious indulgence of an authentic copy. I wore me ain original 1881 printing of David M. Main\'s Treasury of English Sonnets to bits, having gratefully collected it from an old \"hole in the wall\" bookshop in MI 30 years ago March. Can\'t say I was a collector, but I certainly was thankful for obtaining it in mint condition, despite reading and rereading it to literal bits. Lovely and very beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and subtly haunting poignancy. Thank you very much for sharing.

I feel the history or virtually anything - how was it designed, how manufactured or made who (if not new) owned it previously… these feelings are intensified when dealing with antiques and old books -You have defined those feelings well here.

A fun read and a great tribute to a great poet. Funny how as time passes some things are valued more while others are thrown out as valueless. If lucky enough to be petrified or fossilized then more value still what was once trash. Nicely written my friend

Powerful words said with force. Lack of trust is hard to rebuild. The last stanza is the most difficult to understand but the most enlightening

Now here my friend you have tapped into multiple meanings from not standing up for values and liberties threatened to AI and many more in between. In your cryptic style you have left the door open for interpretation and so nicely in style and form. Definately a favorite

Beautifully done Cryptic. Line after line building toward a meaningful end. The use of cliches to make something original. Brilliant

What the [*@#$%] is this?! Cryptic signifies nonsensical???? Nothing like interesting details in every little line where neither rhyme nor reason can see eye to eye. Lovely...

Pushback for me is when I\'m sitting on that flight waiting to go, as I have more than one home in the world I feel your poem has brought a large amount of nostalgia to me, very nicely done. 🌹

Time stops for no man. A sense of urgency here and almost a sense of finality? The number three is magical and is equated to the trinity. Mentioned three times twice it leaves a feel of incompletion in that expectation that it will come once more to complete a series of nine.
