I might well be wrong, i took this to about the civil war in Sudan (The Title), which was then followed by another war, apoligies if i am. It is still a very well crafted piece of writing, painting many a haunting image.

I would indeed be remiss to not give this a Fave. David what has happened to your writting? Although it was always good this is in a class of its own. I sparkles with a classical flair and despite wonderful rhyme it holds deep metaphor and meaning. This is one of my favorite of yours. Very well done.. no brilliant!!

A sad story of love and giving and the cost of it to both parties. This metaphor echoed in religious stories shows devotion and love through action. A most charming story told with great imagery.

Quite tragic but also courageous! We are looking at a prospective trip to Arnhem Land, not really sure that it will eventuate. But I\'ve had a roadtrip to Warragul VIC sometime in 2005, no crocs about for a while there, but sure that there should be some way up north. πποΈ

The talking song.
sorenbarrett said:
As I read this poem I feel an urgency, being shut out, too late, gone and I just noticed, but has been gone for a long time. We talk less now days too much to get in the way. Relationshiips have changed too they have a shorter life expectancy. Great poem

During storms My siblings and I would be like the Darling kids playing about, although we had to Peter Pan. It was fearsome and thrilling all at once. Interesting though how this βsongβ got her through the death of a loved one as wellβ¦ at least I presume the boyfriend died in the crash.

A literal succss as a poem and metaphoric as well. Whether seen as a family tree or nature itself the meaning grows deeper rooted when declaired by man unsafe. Our official order be it government, schools, religion tell us what to believe contrary to knowledge given by experience and life. Do we believe the news?

Good write David. I heard a tree joke - What\'s brown and green, and would kill you if it fell out of a tree on to you? Nope, not a branch - but a snooker table! heehee. Don\'t know where that bizarre joke originated.

A beautiful poem that bought back some happy memories, from the days when all you needed was a tree to have a good time. Often wondered given how old they are, if they could speak, what would they have to say after seeing so much, enjoyed the read.

I have an affinity with trees. The silver birch outside my bedroom window is a sentinel. I understand how that willow tree was a special friend to you and how the memories will stay, long after the tree has gone. Lovely poem David. Thank you for sharing.
