Peace at Last
Poetic Licence said:
An interesting write taking advantage of modern technology to send a message without delivering in person, no need to wait for response, just turn off computer or phone, peace arrived, enjoyed the read

The advantage of modern technology that a message can be sent and not given directly. That does not allow for a response. An interesting write.

Either that, or love the corpse and try to redeem her, if it\'s possible, no? Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

Don’t Look For Me
Cheeky Missy said:
Never ever been there...yet. However, my only nephew is there, studying for his occupation. His grandmother [my late, beloved mother] spent a few years in her early childhood there in OK, and that\'s all I know regarding my connections there. I grew up in Colorado, but that was the 1980\'s; I\'ve been in Lincoln\'s Land since, but I was born here. And yes, you\'ll likely find some relief if you leave. I literally had to move an hour away from a city here in Illinois because, despite my acknowledging it neither knew me nor was my city, my heart couldn\'t let go, perpetually drawing me to the house my family last inhabited, the false promise I\'d find the key to return if only I went back to that place what bound me stupidly to a city which actually didn\'t care two bits for my existence.
But thats too much of me.

Don’t Look For Me
sorenbarrett said:
Oklahoma I have lived there many years ago and this trigger brings memories. This poem speaks of memories as well and a bond that can not be broken in state of memory. Freedom lies beyond its borders. A sand and longing poem of past pain as a chain each link a memory. Nicely done

The rawness of this poem is its strength it doesn\'t cry it sobs quietly with the loss of a piece of oneself. It is not melancholic but tragic. Well written and a fave

A poem about unity and how it makes the load lighter and how it is often neglected. True it is and a very thoughtful poem
