GENEROUS HEART
soheil khodaparasti said:
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. 🙏🕊️

GENEROUS HEART
Tristan Robert Lange said:
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. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

AS MOMENTS PASS
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Norman, this really touched me. The contrast between the battered room and the quiet kindness of the sea breeze and trees creates such a peaceful meditation on time, endurance, and renewal. It left me with a real sense of calm. Beautifully done, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Thomas W Case said:
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.

A LONGING DEEP
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Norman, what a beautiful reflective piece. The movement from loss to memory feels natural, and the imagery gives the poem a dreamlike quality without losing its emotional center. That final thought of days that \"danced their time away\" is a lovely way to leave the reader quietly reflecting. Beautiful work, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
