LEAVES
sorenbarrett said:
A beautiful image in and of itself free of the metaphor. And such is life and the seasons. The feeling left is gently sad but with a sense of acceptance that this is nature\'s way. There is a peacefulness to the flow of the poem and it evokes a calm. Very nicely done

There is a vague sadness in the poem. We notice the words \"forlorn moonlight\" appearing twice. The words
\"tears\" and \"pain\" add to the sadness. The return of autumn itself signals a dwindling down of activities, winding down for winter. Autumn gently prepares leaves to fall off, for their work is done. Next spring will bring a new life to the tree. Soman Ragavan.

Sweet memories abound in this poem that speaks of a departure. Well written and crafted it has a sense of melancholy.

MISSION
sorenbarrett said:
Maybe I have gone too far on this one but it seems a genesis, a beginning of the myth cycle using Greek myth in metaphor \"Titan\" and the time before this. It speaks of space and time in a battle and the biblical creation of heavens and earth and separation of land and water. Deeper still it talks to the inner self. A very deep write loved it and deserves a fave

Brings me to memories of expeditions in urban exploration. Our urban centres are in various states and conditions. It could be a mirror of ourselves if seen epithet open and honest eyes. 🙏🏻🕊

Literally a description of urban decay and metaphorically this might be a description of a person. Haunting and leaving a feeling of isolation and decay. A sad poem well done.

It may be an individual but it is also a metaphor for all the veterans returned that go forgotten and unnoticed. A sad and unfortunately true tale. Well written

Although in metaphor more, in the literal it reminded me of camping trips I made in my youth and the places I slept. Very nicely done
