Gone With a Smile
Thomas W Case said:

This carries the sound of someone writing through doubt instead of waiting for it to leave—raw, persistent, and human in the way it refuses to stop reaching for the song underneath the noise.
There’s a quiet grit in it, like the struggle itself is already part of the music.

Gone With a Smile
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Dearest Teddy, this carries real heart from beginning to end. I especially loved how the poem moves through frustration, persistence, self-doubt, and finally toward acceptance without ever losing its sincerity. And that repeated ending...“with a smile”...is filled with a deeply human tenderness. Powerful lyrics, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

A lovely song Teddy of wanting to be remembered for what one has done and accomplished. A song of continual effort that pays off. Well done my friend

With Nothing But Love (lyrics)
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Teddy, I love your lyricism dearest poet/songwriter 🌹...this brought me to that space where memories feel closer than the present…where moments replay because they’re all you have left to hold onto. There’s something deeply human in that. You captured it well. Well written, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

With Nothing But Love (lyrics)
Thomas W Case said:

Sweet Teddy, This reads like grief refusing to harden—still warm enough to ache instead of just sting.
The refrain gives it a steady heartbeat, but it risks dulling the impact if it isn’t tightened slightly in repetition.

Tristan Robert Lange said:

Teddy, this carries a quiet, grounded truth… something worn, imperfect, and still full of meaning. The way you hold that without trying to fix it gives it real strength. It stays with you. Beautifully done, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

What a wonderful metaphor my friend and so true in an imperfect world where imperfection is good enough and those that search for perfection will never be happy.

For There Is Nothing So Perfect

Beautiful. I had a print of that one by Van Gogh many years ago. Love it.

For There Is Nothing So Perfect
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Teddy, this is a strong piece…what I keep coming back to is how much it says with so little. That idea of needing the whole to truly see beauty feels both simple and quietly challenging. It lingers without trying to. Well written, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

I suppose the Mona Lisa is a great example.
How many times do you at her face and see something different.

Don\'t Ever Underestimate a Butterfly
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Dearest Teddy, this really moved me…there’s a quiet peace in this moment that just settles in. It feels gentle, but there’s something deeper humming beneath it…like a small encounter carrying something much bigger. Beautiful write, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Don\'t Ever Underestimate a Butterfly
sorenbarrett said:

Even the reincarnated need a rest from time to time. I have had this happen on several occasions and can\'t help but wonder what the animal is thinking. A fluttering bug of beauty choosing me for a resting spot. If only we could understand their language

The disappearing butterfly, cherish the moment.
I just get pigions dropping stuff on my shoulder.

Drift
sorenbarrett said:

There is a feel of abandoning oneself to the whims of nature in this poem. Drifting as on a leaf allowing the currents and winds of fortune to carry one feels so free but at the same time with unknown trepidation. Well done my friend

Oak, Lily pad, maple? Do you have a leaf preference? Great poem
