OVER THE TOP
Tony Grannell said:
\'Over the Top\', I presume you are alluding to, World War One. An absolute senseless war and how you have expressed it in this splendid is most admirable, especially so: \'The same lips/ which kissed/ His wife, his child/ his mother\' - a beautiful poetic sorrow. Congratulations on this very fine poem.
Kind regards,
Tony.

THE OLD PORTRAIT
sorenbarrett said:
A most beautiful poem of times lost in the past and forgotten as are its people with only an old photo as a remembrance. I remember years ago finding a box of old photos at my grandmothers house from the 1800\'s and many of the faces were unrecognizable as to who they were. No one living remembered them now just ghosts in picture format. A fave

YOU AND ME

Lost in the chaos of the past not to be found in the present. A poem that speaks of regret. So well written.

IF TODAY HAD BEEN YESTERDAY
sorenbarrett said:
This poem holds a deep metaphor. Although so pertinent to war and nations it also applies to individuals. Animals of the moment and false at heart, who is lover today is victim of a passion crime tomorrow, Allies today enemies tomorrow. Yet the people do not change only the momentary needs, driven by greed and lust. A powerful poem of the human condition or lack there of. A fave

It is sad and a shameful commentary on man the way he treats his environment. This is voiced in this poem well written.

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.
