Uncertainty
Cassie58 said:
The unknown can be scary and difficult to decide whom to trust. Situations like that have to be handled with care. Weigh them up carefully. The scales need to be balanced. I enjoyed my visit here.

Pillows of Emotions

My comments on the poem \"Pillows of emotions” by gray0328 (Courtney Weaver Jr).
The pillow is a silent witness to human emotions and experiences. If only it could talk… But, then, it had better not… The pillow is a reliable confidant. However, being endowed with higher perceptive gifts, poets are able to see the significance of objects like the pillow. Some key points raised in the poem : museum; emotions; pillar; sadness; joys and sorrows of life; past memories flowing by; halls of those memories; short duration of those memories reminding us of fleeting life; the memories have corridors, through which we wander; some of the memories are good, others are not; in spite of sadness, there is beauty; somehow we succeed in scraping through the memories; in spite of the sadness, the human will struggles to survive and to face the future; the past is a museum; it is a place where our memories and emotions are kept; sadness is the springboard that helps us to facing our remaining life.
“Our sweetest songs are those of the saddest thought.”
--Percy B. Shelley (1792-1822)

Prophetic Courage

Thanks Orchi. It\'s in our hearts and actions that our true selves can be found. But now I am going to write a a poem about a histrionic religious zealot who gets his daily workout by constantly crossing himself. 😂

A fine write G.
Yes, I saw someone so caught up in religion, that he was bowing, crossing himself, etc, so much, that I thought \'You\'ll be worn out before the service even starts\', Doh!

The Weight We Carry

\"Deep inside him, he hears the hum of a boy’s dream\" a great line. All of us that have had children can relate to this poem. It is a great read with a wonderful and powerful message.

Party Line
sorenbarrett said:
This one brought back many childhood memories when we had an old black dial phone that had a party line with two other neighbors. How many times I got in trouble interrupting their calls.

I loved your opening and great images \"Where the raccoon is but a hot tar stain
And the sweet-gum tree is lost to time\'s disdain
Where the shirt is just plastic ditch-litter
And the kitchen\'s a cow\'s corpse, bitter\"
Great images indeed. Merry Christmas to you as well
