Sunflower.
sorenbarrett said:

A wonderful write that makes an allegory and personifies the sunflower. To face the east where the sun raises is to look for light or knowledge and truth. One is not the truth but one looks for it. Nicely written

Waiting
Fränz Müller said:

We grow old and die waiting for that perfect moment to arrive. Sacrificing the good waiting for the great. Very well said!

Waiting
sorenbarrett said:

This is a most interesting write I guess it depends what you are waiting for and the chances that it will come. Nicely written

It\'s okay...
sorenbarrett said:

This seems a poem of it is what it is. So many times that things are not what one wants but one has no choice in the matter. Well written

Just for once...

Quite moving!

Just for once...
sorenbarrett said:

Parental responsibility to a point since the child came because of you, out of you, of you and you set the pattern they learned by and even latter controlled their friends or maybe should have. Is this child not a piece of you in miniature? I hear the pain in this poem of not feeling accepted or even wanted.

sorenbarrett said:

A graphic metaphor of control for the wrong purpose. All children need control until they can learn to take it themselves in a responsible manner but it should be based on the well being of the individual as well as the group. Nicely written

The strength I never choose...
sorenbarrett said:

A beautiful poem of the positive atributes of a child and one that is given the burdens of an adult when a child and called a child when they become an adult a mixed and paradoxical combination. Well written

FALLING STARS ✨

You just summed up life.
Never assume you\'ll be rescued without rescuing yourself.

sorenbarrett said:

Self dependence is the safest and most sure way of carrying on in this life. It is good advice and clearly written.

The forgotten seed
arqios said:

And so, it struggled, ill-remembered
yet grows sustained by others,
it exists even in adversity
but not to the whim of shifting shadows.

Shapeless Ocean 🌊
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Antra, this really moved me. There is such a strong sense of self-worth running through the poem. I love that it never argues for becoming less…it argues for embracing exactly what you are. Powerful write, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

The forgotten seed
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Antra, what a powerful metaphor. The contrast between the forgotten seed and the carefully tended flower carries the emotional weight of the poem beautifully. I especially love the ending…how the very independence forged through neglect is later misread as arrogance. That final turn lands with real force. Great job on this, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

The forgotten seed
sorenbarrett said:

Arrogance is nothing more than the speaker feeling envy. Such a lovely poem parable with the metaphor giving a lesson. Seed personified is an example of one pulling themselves up by their bootstraps and being belittled for it envied for it and labeled. Very nicely done.

Shapeless Ocean 🌊
sorenbarrett said:

Deeply philosophical this poem gives various examples of why not to conform to others views and desires. All put in a metaphor of water from ocean to river to glass and drop. Nicely done and most poetic

How do I explain them?🥀
