Heart of Stone
Thomas W Case said:
There’s a damn desolate grief here, where the strange image of wood refusing to burn makes the whole world feel wrong, as though even the rules of reality have collapsed along with everything the speaker knew. The ending is the keeper for me, because the strong pulse against the silence of everyone being gone leaves the speaker trapped inside a living body with nobody left to hear it. Excellent work, sweet Teddy.

Squeezing the Lemons into Lemonade
Tony Grannell said:
Dear, Teddy,
Manoeuvring through life in a lemon grove midst a zillion little yellow suns of citrus fruits, but all lemons are not the same. An unusual poem and the knowledge therein would quench any poet\'s thirst for wisdom. I love the unusual. Excellent!
Fond regards,
Tony.

Yes, crashing into lemons can bring about a grave ending.
Having done a banana split on a date talking apples and oranges, I mentioned to her she had a great pear.
She blew me a raspberry from a six gun resulting in lemon meringue.

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Teddy, I’ve always thought grief and love are tangled together in ways we never completely unravel. Sometimes the ache itself tells us just how much something mattered. You captured that gently here. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Paul Bell said:
Beautifully summed up, and no doubt you could add more.
Grief I suppose is the ultimate loss that shuts down life for a time.
It can also get you climbing mountains and running marathons for good causes.

Dear, Teddy,
A relentless struggle out of the throes of grief, a guilt striven path not easly traveled but with your determination and grit you\'ll breath in happiness again. Your poem is inspiring and fills the heart with hope. Well done indeed.

Dear, Teddy,
A quirk of nature, how dying leaves can be so beautiful with their impressive array of colours and how beautifully you have expressed it. A petite gem.

Hello, Teddy,
The hallucinations associated with intence grief can be maddening to the point of sleepless nights. I sincerely hope you can vanquish the accursed serpent and find some source of normality. Your poetic description is horrifying as it is brilliant.
Wishing you all the very best,
Tony.

Nice write, Teddy. I always think that the way we remember ourselves is as distorted as the way we see ourselves. I try to live with what I have and not worry about yesterday but look forward to tomorrow. You had some great images in this one: \"snakes slithering inside me, I want my elegance, searching.
\'My grandmother always said, \'You ARE as young as you THINK\" Anyways, enjoyed your poem. - Phil A.
