Your words and your pic really invoke a million thoughts.
Isn\'t it amazing when words freely flow, and that\'s poetry.
So well written,

I used to have a gnome but he buggered off after some swine pinched his fishing rod.
He was always complaining anyway because he never had any luck with birds. \"They just shit on me every time\" he said.

Everyday is followed by a rhyme. Monday is followed by Tuesday... they rhyme... OK its a bit of a cop out but.... a rhyme.

Best i can do is point you at something i published on here in June of last year entitled \"through tears\".

Before 40 I\'m building a starship
Neville said:

This is bloomin brilliant PD and yes, you should be proud.... I think you have come a long way in those 38 years and although you have further to go... I sincerely hope you build your starship and any other dreams you may harbour... Forgiveness is such a special gift.. I am glad you found you had it within you to offer it... Neville

Before 40 I\'m building a starship
Suresh said:

If you have reached a stage in your life, that the past is mostly mended, then all you can do is to approach those in the past that you have offended.
If they recognize your present state of mind, and are able to join you going forward, then that is just fine, but ensure that you are no longer the victim of the events of the past.
Stay strong, forty is no longer mid-life.

dusk arising said:

Yes, be proud of what you are. The things you have overcome are your CV of qualifications to be the best human being you can be.

REgarding building that one final ship.... hmm i\'m doubtful. In my experience, before the ship is built you will want to build a slightly different one and before that one is complete another will enter you mind..... i\'m trying to say that i think it\'s a continual process.
However, some ships sink in failure. Thats just life. Best thing to do then is to turn that negative into a positive. With every ending (a negative) then there must be a new beginning (a positive). Keeping that running through life is surely a recipe for contentment/happiness.... well i hope so.

Dark and light, never two shall meet
Goldfinch60 said:

Very good very deep write Dan. That balance is there for us all and we need to find that balance.
Your travels in your life have found that balance and from that your life is becoming full of wonder and peace.

Your recognition and independence from your past is well expressed in your writings.

dusk arising said:

Do those theta and delta waves of our brain in sleep hold the gateway to reality our waking beta waves only glimpse?
More afoot here than we can perceive any further than a hint of it\'s existence.

the unity of opposites need not be opposed other than by their very existence and even then... peacefully.... very nicely composed my friend

Fay Slimm. said:

Yes balance is all we can benefit by Dan - I love the expression i\"children of the stars\" - we are made of the same stuff so we can shine if we so wish. Keep at that struggle my friend.

Selfhood
Neville said:

when all around is dark.. one needs to delve deep within oneself to find the light that still glows there but dimly...

treat the glow kindly and it shall both warm and protect thee..... Neville

Bang on Dan
It\'s like making eggs
we can all put eggs in a pan
but make it something we want to eat
That\'s an omelet

Spot on - as an artist can see inspiration in something others dismiss so a poet can chose words that others wouldn\'t be able to put together.

dusk arising said:

That is one lovely video. The lovely long haired German Shepherd is clearly a poet and loves to recite. The ball thing too is cleary his/her muse.

To me, content takes precedent over rhyme everytime. Rhyming simply limits the applicable words available to the poet.
However i do enjoy using rhyme for fun in lighthearted pieces.
