Intriguing poem. Is it metaphorical? Laced with mystery. Read it twice. It has a rhythmic quality to it. Interesting write!

The loss of any child is a tragedy let alone if it is your own, sometimes that feeling of loss can be felt as your child grows and becomes a different person as well, nicely expressed and written

In the literal this is a parents worst nightmare. The poem well written with meter carrying us on. Here also is a metaphor where the loss can be the growing up of the child and their leaving of the nest a symbolic death to the parent. This too can be a difficult time. A poem well written

Small things that can distract from the bigger things in life. For the want of a nail so to speak. A lovely piece that deserves contemplation.

Deeply metaphoric this poem talks of the price of selling ones trust misplaced. Well written in its careful presentation it sends its message to the listener. Nicely done

ANGELS WEEP

There\'s a quote \"for those who fought for it, freedom has a flavor the protected will never know.\" Many don\'t blink an eye at a soldier\'s life passing, but the cost of his life is another minute of freedom.

A wonderful antiwar poem and who is not antiwar unless you are making money from it or benefiting politically from it. Well stated and a needed message that continues to go unheard.

THE OLD NORTH CEMETERY

Always loved a good cemetery visit. Hence poems about graveyards πͺ¦ can be particularly interesting, itβs like a direct line and link to the past; a sort of time machine of the mind and awareness.ππ»π
