A Mystery of Mysteries
Soman Ragavan said:
You speak of “if we are all just a ship
passing through the night...”
We can recall the following :
“Ships that pass in the night and speak each other in passing,
Only a signal shown and a distant voice in the darkness;
So on the ocean of life, we pass and speak one another,
Only a look and a voice, then darkness again and a silence.”
--H. W. Longfellow (1817-1882)
So, on this ocean of life, we talk to each other briefly on sites like this one.

Very nice Teddy this poem completes the circle with the last stanza feeding so well into the first. The mysteries of life for which each person has their own answer and for which there is no answer. Yes indeed we are our own foe. Loved this write that flowed so well and rhyme

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Wonderful Senryu, Teddy. The beauty and allure of a rose in 17 syllables and a title...working well as a metaphor for a person. Excellent job, my friend! 🌹👏

Teddy on first read and looking at the picture I took this to be a flower but then upon thinking about the word glow and seeing the note senryu emotion i thought no this is the name of a person. Clever use of ambiguity to create a dual image. Very nicely done my friend

I remember as a child looking at my grandfather who was retiring and 65 and thinking how old he looked. Today I am nearly a decade older than he was then and I think what do my grand children think. A pensive write that gives one pause. Well done friend

Teddy, imagine being reunited with your lineage. People from your family\'s history, those from long ago. It\'s actually very frightening. Your will stir the imagination of many.

A beautiful poem posted for wishes of a \"Happy Mother\'s Day,\" enhances the glory of a springtime blossom. I loved your \"orchestra of feathered friends.\" Your poem captures the anticipation of Spring\'s revival. I now feel the Sun breaking through the mist.

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Love the questions, Teddy. We all have our beliefs, but what good is a belief that hasn\'t been examined? And how dangerous or deadly are they? We\'ve all seen that. So, my dear friend, I humbly thank you for the questions. Keep asking them. I love philosophizing all times of the day! 🤣🌹👏

A most wonderful question Teddy and for each they have their own answer, as for me I have resolved it by believing that all are my family, all men and women, animals and plants minerals, planets and stars and that I will never need to rejoin them for I will never leave only change form from time to time. A love4ly poem of great import. Very nice my friend.
