MOONLIGHT
sorenbarrett said:
I take this to be a metaphor and a mirror. The moon the face the face the moon. Very nicely written

MANY YEARS AGO
sorenbarrett said:
I love the way you set this up with the image of the mist to begin with that represents time past to me and the dimness of memory this is emphasized in the repetitions of the phrase many years ago. It comes to me like repeating waves and reverberates like an echo from the past. A lovely write and a fave

GENOCIDE
rrodriguez said:
When I read your poem, the Holocaust came to mind. If this is the case, it was a horrible time in recent history—a stark reminder of the cruelty humans are capable of. Sadly, cruelty still exists in many corners of the world. What we need is a transformation from within, a shift toward compassion and understanding. Thank you for sharing your work; I was truly touched by the vivid imagery you conveyed. It’s a profoundly moving poem.

THE CALM BEFORE
rrodriguez said:
Suicide is such a sad way to end a life, but some people believe it is the only way out. Your poem captures the deeply emotional journey of those who have taken their own lives. We must remain vigilant and help, whenever possible, those who may be prone to such thoughts. Thank you for sharing.

ROBINS IN WINTER
rrodriguez said:
Your poem carries a somber tone, infused with sorrow, love, and longing. I read it several times. You wrote \"a parent\'s worse nightmare.\" This is one I\'d rather not have. Thank you for sharing. The poem reads well and is beautifully written. Thank you for sharing.

GHOST
sorenbarrett said:
Don\'t know why people always equate ghosts with fear and bad things, if there were ghosts they would have the same variety as the people they came from and there would be many gentle and kind ones. Loved the poem

GOODBYE FRIEND
Tony Grannell said:
This is awfully sad yet beautifully composed. Of a friend lost but the friendship lives on in this warm-hearted poem. Of those bereft of friendship would find succour in your words, as I have. Thank you very much.
Kind regards,
Tony.

Saying goodbye is a difficult thing sometimes but less so if we feel that the other is going to a good place. This poem speaks of this. Nicely written

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.

Anti war? Me too. This poem puts it all out there the stupidity and lunacy of war when there is so much to live for. A powerful write

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.
