I very much liked this one Norman the short lines and rhyme left the feeling of rocking on the water and the setting seemed appropriate maybe enhanced the situation with drunken swaying. A fave my friend.

Norman, what a poignant piece. The gentle rhythm and reflective tone make it feel like paging through old memories, each one carrying a little more longing than the last. The ending leaves the heart quietly searching alongside the poem. Beautifully done, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

THE DREAMERS DREAM
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Norman, what a beautiful poem. The imagery flows so naturally that it feels less like reading and more like slipping into a dream yourself. By the end, the gentle meditation on time, life, and eternity leaves a lasting impression. Wonderful write, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

There is a sense of melancholy mixed with nostalgia where the past leaves a mystery. Nicely done Norman

GENEROUS HEART

I really enjoyed reading your poem. The heart, rather than words, does the communicating, which I found especially moving. \"Elastic moments / Now are stretched / To accommodate / The hours left\" is an excellent metaphor. The final stanza is deeply touching. Thank you for sharing this beautiful piece.

Dreams are excellent except when they are not. Last night I wrote two complete poems in my dream. Of course I couldn\'t pull them out from memory this morning. 🙏🕊️

Norman, this really touched me. The journey from twilight to the image of a sparkling star creates a graceful farewell filled with love rather than despair. It\'s a poignant reminder that even in parting, our care for one another continues. Beautifully done, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

There’s a quiet weathered beauty in this—like a house still breathing through its damage, letting the sea and dawn move through it anyway.
What stands out is the gentleness: even broken things aren’t violent here, just patient with time as it passes through.
