Aphrodite\'s Grief
L. B. Mek said:

beautiful!
there\'s a stark quality that I can\'t help
but relate to Euripides
the way, he too exposed the monstrosity of war
to his fellow Grecian\'s (during war)
except your words, explore the suffering and oppression
of womankind in general, I think..?
still, such an engaging read
liked the way you weaved
mythology with theology, with purpose
added a lot of depth
to what interpretive meaning
we readers have to play around with
really well executed, thank you for sharing

Sea-Dog
Doggerel Dave said:

Metaphor only for recovery from lost love? I hope so from a selfish point of view as I suffer from terrible seasickness.
Absolute admiration for technical quality of your verse.

My Darling of Divine Delight
L. B. Mek said:

\'With waterfalling golden hair
and eyes that flash and twinkle fair.\'
you, dear Poet
is the living embodiment of that beautiful term:
\' \"Give them their flowers while they yet live.\"
When they can smell the rose
and hold your hand
to receive the flower you give.\'
(another symphonic dedication
thanks for sharing)

blurred - lines: indeed...

First & Last Love
L. B. Mek said:

again, yet another wonderful dedication!
\'Hourglass hips and fairy feet,
angel eyes and smile so sweet.\'
this heroic couplet should be in a country music song
or maybe, all of them...

Passion Flower
L. B. Mek said:

\'She’ll go on being beautiful
while I am sound asleep.

And when I wake refreshed again
she’ll still sit there serene.\'
simply brilliant, dear poet
(fun fact or maybe not? lol)
the latin translation \'passiflora\'
I also used to title
a mother\'s day poem dedication

Kiss of Life
L. B. Mek said:

wonderful, I recognise this work or maybe just the picture? not sure
another wonderfully worded dedication, thanks for sharing:
\'When willows weep and dungeons deep
depress my dreaming mind,
and nightingale, poor prince of pain,
sweet song he cannot find...\'
this verse made me think of Keat\'s \'Ode to a nightingale\'
remixed with Poe\'s \'Annabel Lee\'
(coincidentally, the very last poem Poe published),
specifically this lines (I altered some words, ahem..):
\'For the moon never beams, without bringing me dreams
Of the beautiful *Lorraine*;
And the stars never rise, but I feel the bright eyes
Of the beautiful *Lorraine*;
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling—my darling—my life and my bride,\'..

Land of Dreams
L. B. Mek said:

Poetry - exemplifying: quintessential, understated British - brilliance!
(thank you for sharing your source of inspirational happiness, dear poet
and for inspiring my own, feeble scribbled reply):
\'I\'m so grateful to have been welcomed
into this \'oh so private\' - miracle, we\'ve titled
our beloved, blighty
and ain\'t nowhere in the world
like a foreigner - made to feel, at home
than in our beautiful, British isles
where the \'Vast Majority\' - still, stubbornly choose
to nurture their hereditary pride
for those simple treasured gifts, in life
trusting in those subtle, picturesque scenes
of a freshly-pulled pints, enticingly sweating glass
as light-hearted, meaningful warmth - exudes
from beaming, grateful smiles
shared knowingly
between those fated: handful few, in our lives...\'

Holy Alphabet
L. B. Mek said:

different, for sure - but intriguingly-so (for me)
challenging, kinda hard to comprehend fully
a proclamation of faith, that vaguely turns into commentary, maybe?
thanks for sharing
