I really enjoyed reading your poem. \"Don\'t live in the past, get over it all\" Definitely tried to if not succeeded. Trying to move forward. Congratulations as you obviously have too! Thanks for sharing this great poem!

PD, the movie is absolutely great!!! (How telling too that the girl jumped without hesitation, whereas the boy did hesitate a bit)
With my oldest now 40 years old, I went through that letting go thing a long time ago, but it never goes away completely. There is still a strong bond and a tendency to give them our five cents worth. And we do have the memories......

A great write Dan. Quite often I\'m caught up in the past as I\'m a very nostalgic sort. But I\'m always aware of moving forward. But this is a great reminder for me to appreciate my past but also to appreciate today and look forward too. ; )

PD, this is not only a very strong, written from the heart, poem, it is also a tale of understanding and forgiveness, full of love and hope for a better future.
Great writing!

An understanding of other wraps itself round every line and a Dad must have been proud to read your warm response of what life was about for him too. A moving read Dan

I do like the whole poem, PD, but especially the ending. If quantum theory is right about the vibrating strings, we are vibrating beings and maybe that is the reason we enjoy music so much!

Good write, music has always been in my soul, it is so important to me both listening, playing and singing it.

Creating a good musical sound is a great gift and shouldnt be kept hidden for music brings joy, relaxation, acceptance and understanding. And to the player an immense reward to see others within the trance he/she creates.
Good to read.

Very nice write! I think music is very important and like you said \"is food for the soul\". I don\'t know what I would do without it. Again, enjoyed the write very much!

Lucky to be what I am!

You certainly are, PD, and that is why you write so good!

Illusions and time

Wow, an interesting piece on our minds, this is something I occasionally think about, but you\'ve expressed it better than I could without a doubt. Brilliant piece!

Illusions and time
Fay Slimm. said:

Good questions of where our inner senses begin and how - - I like too the way the verse ends with a positive reminder in the final lines. Great read Dan

Illusions and time
FredPeyer said:

Good poem, PD! The mind is a curious thing. You are right, you do have to know the outside to understand the inside. Like yin and yang, good and bad. There is a balance. But can we really bend illusion and time? Gravity will bend space time, so maybe mind can bend illusion?

Birthday blues, what a tune!

Wonderful work.

Wonderful write Dan! Seems you\'ve been through a lot and now you are focusing on partner and kids. So have a happy birthday!

Birthday blues, what a tune!
FredPeyer said:

Happy Birthday Dan! May the light of the birthday cake candles light your way and your future! You went through a lot, but triumphed, and I am sure that with your kids and your partner, and maybe a tiny little bit of us here at MPS you will have a future to look forward to and to enjoy!

Good strong write Dan, your kids and partner are there for you as we are on MPS. Happy Birthday Dan may your future take you from darkness into the light that is there for you.

Awesome writing PD. It is sad to see the older people we live so much and sometimes they forget who we are. They begin to get like a child again. Old babies.

Accidental Poet said:

Alzheimer\'s? Not a easy subject for me. My adoptive mom passed from Alzheimer\'s. If you can get past the tears, \"Still Alice\" is a great movie about the disease. I cried a river through that movie.
Excellent poem for your nan. ; )

Older Ladies of grace. I now that serenity of which you speak. Nostalgic reading for me.

FredPeyer said:

PD, this is a very tender and loving poem about a subject that many of us experience with loved ones, and one day may experience ourselves, whether we will know it or not!

So sad that some minds come to confusion - a tender piece of caring tribute to the gracefulness always found in a well-loved Nan.

Beautifully said, PD! Even though we are supposed to be wordsmiths, there are times when words are not enough, or there are no words.
I like this poem!

Good loving write, love the sixties feel a great time in my life and now is obviously a great time in your life.

Life of love
dusk arising said:

Great poem, and wicked pic. Reading all comments before i make mine i say this. Not only do i wish you the utmost joy in your life, for like my fellow poets here i have read your heart outpourings upon my screen, but that a love that has been searched for by both parties will be a love that is cherished and nurtured by both.
Gladdens my heart to see that pic and read your words.
