There is a rocking meter that with the rhyme provides a bit of melancholy to this poem and a sense of resignation in the wording finishes it well.

MY LONELY CALL
Tristan Robert Lange said:
What a haunting piece, Norman. The stillness, passing hours, and remembered closeness all deepen the sense of a voice calling into a place where love no longer answers...quietly devastating and beautifully written, my friend. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

Loss and memories promote pain in this write Norman. It is felt by the reader and there is a sadness to it. A sadness in its loneliness. Nicely written my friend.

A fine write N. A lonely wait for you at that bus stop. All the other passengers gave up and went home. lol.
Oh lol, I read of a rusty bus stop being replaced in a village that has no bus service. They say \'It\'s in case buses do run here again!\' Bit like you waiting there. lol.

TO HEAVEN HIGH
Tristan Robert Lange said:
What a striking poem, Norman! The darkness feels ancient and predatory as one sacred order collapses and another rises to dictate human identityβ¦a haunting vision of our repeated submission. Excellent work, my friend. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

Man\'s religion can never exceed his intelligence and capacity for understanding. This poem takes one on a journey through time and religious belief. The idea itself is worthy of contemplation. Nicely done Norman.

BLOOD
Tristan Robert Lange said:
What a strong piece, Norman. You keep the focus on those who get battered by life and then forgotten once everyone else moves on...and the fact that you wrote this decades ago only makes it more sobering. Powerful work, my friend. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

THE BREATH OF MOMENTS
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Norman, this is deeply moving. The loneliness feels immediate, but so does the history held inside those rooms...all the love, grief, prayer, anger, and life that once filled them. Beautiful piece, my friend. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

What a touching poem, my friend. Grief is here, but love has the stronger voiceβ¦continuing quietly through memory and the world around us rather than disappearing with death. Really beautiful, Norman. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

Beautifully written Norman.
I can detect a little sadness in this but it\'s certainly not bleak. Awesome rhyme as always.
