ONE TEAR
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Norman, this has such delicate emotional control to it. The tear becomes memory, confession, grief, and release all within one small movement across the skin. Wonderfully written, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Norman you have taken an image so commonly used in poetry that it is trite and made it most poetic and artistic in this poem that paints the image well but more importantly has personified it and made it alive and a subject of pity. Well written and a fave

Norman, what I enjoyed most here is the naturalness of it all. The conferences, the anniversary congratulations, the quick catching-up energy…it feels like an actual human moment preserved instead of polished into something artificial. That sincerity gives it warmth and heart. Strongly conveyed, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

and, breathe. Works for me, the suspense playing backwards, instead of wondering what\'s still to happen. Nicely done.

A fine write N. It\'s too much for you - you\'ve wept blood, or sweated blood, waiting for that No.7 bus. Could you try the No.4 bus instead? Or doesn\'t they go to Costcutters?! lol.

Ahh, that\'ll be the road where you never get to the next crossroads, as the bus never arrives! lol.

ROAD
Tristan Robert Lange said:
My friend, I’ve known roads like this myself…the kind where you keep moving without fully knowing what waits around the next bend. That mix of hurt, endurance, and quiet acceptance comes through clearly here. It feels reflective without losing hope. Beautifully done, Norman. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

MIDNIGHT WEPT
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Reading this felt like stepping into one of those moments where memory becomes almost physical, Norman. The candles, marble, echoes, shadows…it all creates this deeply mournful dreamscape that lingered with me afterward. Really moving work, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Good write N. There you are at the bus stop - weeping at midnight, still waiting. Will you get the No 11 bus instead!? lol.

THE ANGEL WHO FELL
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Norman...what a haunting piece this is. The celestial imagery feels grand, but the emotional core stays painfully grounded...falling, aging, doubting, searching for shelter after the fire fades. And that final realization creeping in at the end...you can feel it approaching before the poem even says it outright. Excellent write, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
