This poem is haunting and sad. Past memories can be sad but they can also be happy and cheerful depending what we choose to focus on. Loved this poem and its sense of distance and haze in the memory that seems to fade away at the end of the poem. Most lovely

I write & The situation
sorenbarrett said:
Your first poem seen as an oblation and accepted with gratitude, A lovely write of dedication to all. The second one of resignation and sacrifice a deterministic end. Very nicely done.

The last 3 of the River story

Each with its own form of sadness, forlorn they cast shadows and darken. Very sad

Staying home

A haunting and yet inviting write. Speaks to my soul of memories and of good times had. Now these stories entertain my heart. Your poem entertained mine. Thank you for sharing.

A write about an unresolved loss that troubles the author and water is such a great metaphor and symbol for this. Very nice

Unknown cause & Sorry for the nights
Poetic Licence said:
These are wonderful pieces of writing, the first describing horrific injury\'s sustained and the sense to be alive. The second trying to cope with the aftermath of the injury\'s and the effects it has on them and their loved ones, haunting, touching and emotional writing well done

Unknown cause & Sorry for the nights
sorenbarrett said:
Both poems so well written. You have come a long way in your writing. The first graphic and so well expressed I thought at first you were speaking from the mouth of a deer that had been hit on the road but was mistaken to find it was you. A metaphor possibly as well. The second a continuation? Is this the trauma that left you broken? I can only wonder due to the juxtaposition. Lovely writing

A typical 24

Between day and night feels rough. Fights all day and no sleep at night. A poem of adversity. Well done

Pooled string, Current location, & It blinks
Poetic Licence said:
There is a lot of food for thought in these writes, reflection of the darker past but underlined with the message out of dark can come light, enjoyed the reads

Pensive meditation in isolation is the feeling I get from these three. Yet in darkness there is light. Open the windows and let the sun in. Very nice.

Darkened dreams & Viewing spot

Shadows are a favorite image of mine so easily used as a metaphor for many things. Very nicely written both of these poems.

Lights into nights & Kissing death
sorenbarrett said:
In the first there is strong reverberations of the past and it seems that the more distant the louder the volume. A wistful write. In the second your note helps understand but reading it before I had a feeling that it was connected to the first and was an acceptance of loss so deep that death was the answer. Both lovely writes so well written in good meter that they deserve a fave

1st & last Note
sorenbarrett said:
Fear a terrible thing it stops what could have been leaving us feeling we have sinned. I hear its footsteps here. Regret follows close behind a most unwanted companion and unwelcome visitor. They paralyze us and while waiting on them we loose our opportunity the visit we have been waiting for. A fine write well worded and aptly described

Sleepless

I loved the idea of noisy shadows sliding and creeping around just too clumsy to avoid making noise. A wonderful read that would in fact be quite creepy if shadows made such noise. Lovely
