sorenbarrett said:
Blossoms fall regardless of color or type of tree and so it is with people as well. Nicely written it has a sense of melancholy to it.

Farewell My Village

This poem seems not only a fragment of reality but a metaphor for change and moving on. We can not go back in time yet we hold feelings and memories that take us back. Well written

The Legend of Clear Water River
Cheeky Missy said:
There is a way to do things, and then there\'s all the wrong ways which more may well take successfully, while some likewise perish for having chosen to turn aside nor take the right way. This tale you\'ve poignantly related rends the reader\'s heart, for who can fail to feel for the lovers? Like the misnamed ancient legends, it stands as a warning to passersby. Thank you very much for sharing.
