Very nicely done the poem has a wonderful meter and cadence to it that carries one along. The story is most interesting and if one is into Jungian psychology speaks of the anima and animus that each of us carry (that female and male portion) Nicely done

Autumn used to be the time of year I dreaded the most but after moving to southern climes it made little difference. This poem casts a shadow on this time of year making it cold and dark. It is nicely crafted. Well done

Beautifully rendered picture of deep emotions. I read the lines \"Carve sentiments in the dew,
Only to frost them once more. \" again and again

Im trying to imagine what the flame represents. Sunlight, warmer temperatures, someone\'s breath? Great read. I really liked it a lot.

Like many great works they have many meanings to different people and so does this one. A vague enough canvass to paint my own pictures over this already painted image. This could refer to yet unborn creations of posterity or a legacy of one\'s work. It is lovely enough to deserve a fave in my book.

I like this write, i often wonder in those day dream moments are they really forgotten, or have we banked them as seeds that appear down line as a bit more than a day dream, enjoyed the read

A wonderful metaphor poetically expressed in short verses. The imagery fits well and it can be taken more than one way. Very nice.

You get a sense of a troubled night, then in the morning taking a deep breath and trying to push through the day, enjoyed the read
