I enjoyed reading your poem and thought about the many times that I wanted to quit, but I kept on going and I\'m glad I did. Wonderful message, my friend.

Such an incredibly wonderful message, and so true, sometimes we are the failure of our own lost dreams. 🌹

Poetry, very bluntly, is the way that I have to get it out. To free the self from the weight of decades and decades on this planet. It may not mean much to others, they may not have context, but I do and sometimes they do too.

It can be used to condense thoughts, and can be a generous gift, or not!

I write to find the peace in collecting my thoughts, fixing them for the given time, as if a snapshot in time. And a higher joycomes along, when someone relates to it, as if another person had the same path unfolding in their mind...

For me, writing poetry is not a competition with anyone, although on my main page here I say I am a slave to the poetic whims of my Muse. I write as anyone writes, to let out what will not stay hidden, what pesters my quill until it lands on the page and allows me to hit that submit button being satisfied with itself. We write not for the glory, but the expression of what\'s in our hearts. Deny what\'s in your heart and you shall suffer the consequences. Well penned/questioned rhmn_7 😊👍

For as long as I can remember (almost) I have personally written in an attempt to capture moments, situations, circumstances and or events that either appeal and or otherwise catch my attention .. and in the hope that they will essentially serve to stimulate my own mental muscle when I am too old to wield my pen ..
More recently however, also to try and raise funds for a few charitable causes very dear to my heart ..
I very much enjoyed the reading of and participating in your poetic social experiment my friend ..

Like the open ended nature of your piece on one level; I would think that the only answer you can obtain is from yourself. Many different motivations can be seen here. Some self talk may be helpful.

A great question put in verse. I can only speak for myself. I write for myself and realize that the words of others are what they wish to share with the world. Some like I are limited in this gift and I realize as I read the pomes out there that they do the best they can to express the human experience, not all are as gifted as the greats and some that are not so lucky to catch the world attention. For me poetry is therapy.

Don\'t forget
Doggerel Dave said:
No Sorry, I obviously didn\'t make myself clear (and, given the adulation above, I know I\'m going to appear a party pooper once more), I don\'t need to be advised by anyone. If, as is oftimes said, \'if I want your advice I\'ll ask for it.!\' that\'s where I\'m at.
To me it\'s condescending; to all those above it obviously isn\'t so you have no choice but to go with the strength, I suppose....

Definitely had a moment like that (way in the past)
I felt quite vividly, gained from forceful, well constructed poetry.

Your approach with a question to the reader was a great beginning. It is also a great metaphor with the image of a loved one separated by the distance of a plane flight. Maintaining the theme another great ploy that keeps the reader on track.
\"14 springs saw our white jasmine tree,
one more year, and you win.\"
A wonderful line with the analogy of natures growth compared to the time apart. This makes the poem feel so human and real.
\"How did you spend years without me?\"
A great finishing line to the previous thought.
\"Two and a half words written on my wing:\"
This last line makes this a masterpiece. It ties in the first theme and leaves the reader to wonder what are the two and a half words. I can guess but I\'m never sure.

Is love far away,
or longing too close?
Like paper planes we fly
who will part the most?
This is just brilliant

Wow! How fortunate you were to witness such splendor, and then to capture it in this beautiful verse, truly inspired. The painter is indeed there for our benefit, a lovely homage!

Great poem. There is something so universal about looking at the sky and thinking about being separated from your love. ... Thank you for reminding me that you are literally looking at the past and longing for past memories.
