Dark and sad. To any mother their child is a baby Jesus and as a metaphor a dead God is held by many. A most interesting write

Wise words from experience are better than holy words from scripture I always say. A great write that cuts to the core of life.

A sad and emotional piece of the longing for and the missing of a loved one, the clearing off the leaves is clearing the way. Very well written as always

A melancholic and sad poem written in such a way that the reveal comes at the end and turns the emotion from one of love to one of missing. Tender it leaves with it as sense of loss

I admit it can be sometimes \'out of sight, out of mind\'. When visiting, or re-visiting a grave, it may be that weeks or months have passed - time flies?

The dog that climbed trees.
arqios said:
Hurray for the pursuit of one\'s true nature despite external pressures. And regardless of external recognition or validation the dog looking up at the moon but not barking, evokes a sense of quiet pride and fulfilment. With that we are all set to embrace our unique journeys and stand tall against adversity.

Poetic Licence said:
I feel it is about not being beaten into submission by what others are wanting and telling you to do, and having the strength to do what you want and stand on your own 2 feet, that`s just my thought. It probably has a 100 interpretations, beautifully written complex poem, that for certain makes you think, really enjoyed the read.

Let me go out on a limb. Some are destined to be different and as such are not well accepted and not wished well. And as for barking at the moon such people know their limits if wise. What a metaphoric piece David that certainly may contain various interpretations

The Flight of the Bird boy.
arqios said:
A profound theme and intriguing manner that this poem resonates with a universal longing for escape and the desire to rise above life\'s challenges. Its lyrical quality and emotional depth of your wording make it a poignant and memorable piece.

Used to as a child dream of flying in lucid dreams. Haven\'t had one of those in a long time but this poem reminded me of that. Liberating was the feeling I got from this poem. Most lovely

Wow! Now there’s a resolution afoot just waiting to be found. Kind of curious about the next “chapter-episode-sequel” to this.

The Day I became My Mother.
sorenbarrett said:
Both carefully concealed and in your face this poem presents the two sides of the issue. How tolerant is too tolerant and how intolerant is too intolerant where do we draw the line? A great thought provoking write.

Poetic Licence said:
How words of parents are clearly remembered, even thou at the time they probably thought no one was listen. An underlying message of we have to try to make the most off what we have. Enjoyed the read.

The House of the Dog
Cassie58 said:
A fun write. In my home, the cat rules. The dog is terrified of her and the dog is three times the size of that little madam:)
They tolerate each other, from a very wide distance. No physical fights yet. I appreciated the metaphor here as well:) Happy new year David.

The House of the Dog
sorenbarrett said:
Loved the last line. Like Daniel in the lion\'s den. Had a dog and cat that were best friends and the dog would defend the cat from other dogs. Another cat my dog liked so much it groomed the pants off the cat licking all the fur off the lower half of the cat so in embarrassment (in bare ass ment) the cat moved down the street to the neighbors. A most fun but also metaphoric write David.
