Good write N. A lonely time too waiting at that bus stop. Did everyone else give up and walk or go back home?! lol.

OPEN SOULS
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Norman, this hit me hard. There’s a stark humanity running through this piece...the fog may blur the world, but it seems to sharpen the realities you’re pointing toward. The contrast between comfort and hardship lands with real force. Powerful poem, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

Telecracy is an oligarch\'s best friend, it seems. Distancing the reputation and personhood from the dirty work at all costs. I guess that\'s how henchmen. lacjeys and sidekicks abound.

A wonderful piece of poetry that your title works perfectly with. Those politicians wouldn\'t be seen on the front line. 🌹

This poem is haunting and poignant where the justification for violence against one\'s fellow man is politically justified. Nicely penned

MAGIC CAUGHT
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Norman, this brought back that feeling of encountering someone or something that changes the atmosphere around you without a word being spoken. The poem captures those quiet moments that somehow become unforgettable. Really enjoyed this one, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

STRANGER AT THE STATION
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Norman, I’ve always found train imagery carries a special kind of melancholy…that sense of movement, departure, and things that cannot be revisited. This poem taps into that feeling wonderfully. It feels reflective without becoming heavy-handed. Really enjoyed this one, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

Nicely written. Your poem explores themes of solitude, nostalgia, and the passage of time, encapsulating the emotions tied to memories and the impact of past journeys on the present.

A fine write N.
Ahh, you got to the bus station at last (maybe walked there?) and a friend said to you \'Hello stranger; not seen you for 50 years\'. You reply:\' Yes, I was waiting for a bus so I could meet you\'. Doh!

sorenbarrett said:

Metaphors of a train, tracks for the train and on the face of the clock that is time. Those tracks the life journey and the tracks the memory which bad need to be erased. It is a bumpy ride. Well done

Memories evoked by a picture opened and closed. And so it is that the mind becomes the pendant and picture opened and closed. Well done Norman

A DREAM
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Norman, what a beautiful reflection. What struck me most is the contrast between the intimate details...the grass, the sand, the breeze...and the distant ships moving across the horizon. It creates a feeling of being both deeply present and slightly adrift at the same time. The dreamlike quality of the ending ties it all together perfectly. Wonderful write, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›
