AVARICE.

Very good words David, the avarice in our world is getting worse each moment in our lives.

AVARICE.
Cheeky Missy said:

Dang! This is so beautifully rendered I\'m on the fence over whether it\'s what it seems at first glance or a grand and damning metaphor. With a none too subtly haunting poignancy and excellent imagery, this is too lovely, despite its ghastliness. Thank you for sharing.

AVARICE.
sorenbarrett said:

A fantastic write of the avarice of men and the callousness toward others in their quest. So well worded and rhymed a masterpiece

A beautiful message that I wish we all could adhere to. The last line is my favorite and I wish all would honor.

The Ghost that saves
sorenbarrett said:

A most interesting concept, the ghost of love, makes one ponder. I love when a new thought comes in a poem. Very creative.

The Days of Rock and Roll.
Bobby O said:

They Day with you and happiness and I imagine especially because of the title soundtrack. It is even adjusted by volume as you move around cause it’s gotta hit you right she comes Kathy’s clown. I like Ray Davis. Will you tell me your name?

The Days of Rock and Roll.
arqios said:

Honest, with it being the Hallowe’en week I was almost expecting a ghoulish twist at the second dance segment! Phew, all this marketing around us is messing with my flow. But the sweet tenderness meanders alongside the days of wine and roses… nothing like pure, simple bliss even if a tad poignant. 👍🏻👍🏻

The Days of Rock and Roll.
sorenbarrett said:

Beautiful this poem speaks to all those old memories fondly tucked away. The smoothness of the read made it feel fluid like a dream. Very nice

Melanie disappears.

Melanie disappears.
arqios said:

Fantastic symbolism! We disappear when significant persons disappear from our lives and I could just imagine if this happened physically - like a sci-fi Twilight Zone type of film scenario. Good stuff here!

Melanie disappears.
sorenbarrett said:

They say pray for what you need, I say wishful thinking by itself may do little but if you want it bad enough you will find a way. A great message in a surreal story

Flowers and Powers.
Goldfinch60 said:

Such wonderful words David, flowers can be so meaningful.

Andy

Flowers and Powers.
sorenbarrett said:

Very nice David you have captured virtues in each and I love them just for their natural beauty. Always have loved flowers if they are good enough for the bees they are good enough for me. Nicely written, it is not easy to incorporate so many names in one poem

October 28th, 2024 09:45

Flowers and Powers.
arqios said:

These I have yet to properly learn having undergone an impoverished tutelage of bloom and green. My love of gardening the only redeeming thing in this scenario.

I have seen, I have heard and I believe.

Gentleness in our lives is so wonderful and healing David, fine words.

sorenbarrett said:

The last four lines in this poem were my favorite. This poem weeps with tragic sorrow of disillusion. Very powerful
