Watching stupidity
sorenbarrett said:

The message is clear in this poem of changes that have taken place and how we compare them to the past. Well done

Double, Double please
sorenbarrett said:

A fun short where bitter meets sweet whether in a pastry bite or sugar in the coffee. I prefer mine black.

Night terrors
sorenbarrett said:

A terrible disorder night terrors frightening beyond belief where heart rate may easily exceed 200. Images of being crushed or whatever invade ones dreams

Sacrificing warmth
sorenbarrett said:

This poem speaks with nostalgia of the past and well said as well. It makes ones thoughts return to other days.

That moment we dread
sorenbarrett said:

A poem that seems a premonition. The question is who is being referred to. It has an ominous feel to it. Nicely written

Set this free
sorenbarrett said:

A plea for unity in a war we all need to wage. Nicely said

Winter thoughts
Bella Shepard said:

We have our favorite seasons, and I commiserate with your feelings of winter coming on. Although I must admit, I do love to walk in the falling snow, when all is white and peaceful. A good write, stay warm and safe.

Winter thoughts
sorenbarrett said:

We always seem to long for what we don\'t have and that applies to the seasons as well. A wonderful write of winter coming on. Nicely done

Strong flame
sorenbarrett said:

A challenge and a dare in a poem that is opposed to its opposite in love. Maybe the act of sacrifice as a love offering may come into play as well. Nicely done

I tried to understand
NinjaGirl said:

It\'s so hard when the only thing we can do is speculate on the reasons why...well done!

I tried to understand

A moment: The end
Bella Shepard said:

You capture metaphorically the sin of betrayal in love, where the stab to the heart is the unkindest cut of all. Good write.

A moment: The end
sorenbarrett said:

Guilt by association a short write about not hanging with the wrong people. A good read

Halved
sorenbarrett said:

So true how few the memories before we could speak. Memories have language keys that unlock their vault. I have a few snap shot flashes of memories from when I was just a toddler confirmed by those that were there at the time but only a few before age four. A wonderful poem

What now
sorenbarrett said:

Tears often a manipulation can be annoying. It makes it difficult to tell the difference from legitimate and manipulative. Sometimes kids can be demanding. Lovely

The iron run
sorenbarrett said:

I have to say that this one puzzled me I had visions of a man with a nine iron chasing down the hill. I guess it could be iron man but I haven\'t followed the comics too much. Very interesting

Wet pillow
sorenbarrett said:

A metaphor and also in reverse. I love to sleep to the sound of the rain and many say that they cry themselves to sleep. Is sleep a defense against pain or threat well written

The rain
NinjaGirl said:

Rain is so beautiful it\'s true, and with everywhere it\'s been it does have a lot to say! I love this concept!

The rain
Bella Shepard said:

Your graphic description conjures memories of my youth, when I loved to pop open an umbrella and take long walks in the rain. Each line creates a blissful experience, beautifully and lovingly written.

The rain
sorenbarrett said:

A beautiful pouring of words that fall like the rain. Each drop and word forming pools and rivulets to the next following the stream of consciousness. Nicely done

A thought: Leaves
sorenbarrett said:

Indeed they do. Have had cats and know. A fun read.

Salted
sorenbarrett said:

I feel that this journey is a metaphor for life itself and the cracks we suffer during the journey taking on water and the question of whether we will reach our destination. A lovely write

Jitters

I see the title in this poem itself. We all get them from time to time under certain circumstances. A lovely write
