Happy Thanksgiving Day. We should have this in Britain.
It\'s a little thank-you for the year\'s efforts and hopefully optimism for the year ahead.
With all the doom and gloom in the world, sometimes the good gets overlooked.

My friend… you wrote Thanksgiving as transformation itself. The risk…the rebuilding…the choosing to move forward. It’s reflective and bold at the same time. Beautiful work A warm and happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

I love the shift from gratitude for the past to the focus on determination and change for the future and present. It is a celebration of not only what our efforts brought us but what they will bring. A bright look to a new day. Set in good rhyme and flowing meter it speaks of what the past has brought us to be and from that strength to what it offers. A union of past, present and future. A wonderful write and a fave

The Immeasurable Want {Lust}
Paul Bell said:
Must admit, sex did jump out, with the lust for money a close second, and sex coming third fourth and fifth.
I take it lust is a sin in some quarters, but also a human trait.
Now that I know the true meaning, I will change the way I look at the blond girl on the train every morning, though that car showroom that sells sports cars, I could lust all day in there.

The Immeasurable Want {Lust}

A wonderful expose on the word that puts Websters to shame. I love the way the poem gets going picking up speed until the last stanzas where it is racing at a fabulous speed. My favorite stanza is the last that puts the cap on the poem and finishes it with power and force. A word rich in meaning to which we generally limit it to its negative connotations as label it as one of the seven deadly sins. What a shame when it means so much more. The energy of life in every meaning. A most wonderful poem and a fave

First comment! Yay!!! Friendship, this burns hot… the bigger meaning, the reclaiming of a word people shrink down to one corner. You opened it back up. Very well done, my dear friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Have you ever met anyone who is so shallow ?
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Friendship, this hit deep…you’ve given voice to that hollow ache of surface-level living. It’s honest, cutting, and sorrowful all at once. Just read your leave of absence notice. I am taking it that is new and current as I don\'t remember seeing it before. If so, I will be missing you my friend, and I will be keeping you and your friend in my prayers. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Yes, the me, me, me brigade are still alive and kicking.
You know this, cos they\'re still polishing their statue they commissioned themselves for themselves
Keeps you laughing, though.
Haste you back.

You are what you are, if people find that frustrating or difficult, so be it.
I suppose you can counter any suggestion with, I\'m just unique.
Plus, we don\'t want everyone to be the same, or the world would definitely be boring.

Tristan Robert Lange said:
My friend, this is powerful…not just a poem but a reclamation. You make it clear...hypersensitivity isn’t weakness, it’s identity. I share in that identity, and have been judged by it.That line of strength runs through every verse. Powerful poem, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Hypersensitivity seen as a trait the same as right or left handed in this poem. We are all different and deserve respect for who we are. It used to be thought that left handed people were evil or slow and forced changing of hands was forced on children. We have since learned that it is a simple reversal form the norm at the motor center of the brain. Hypersensitivity is just another difference in our nature. Well written with very nice rhyme and a good flowing meter

Your skill as a poet shine in this particular post .. and it seems my reviewing predecessors have emphasised many of the positives that I might have listed .. however, there is no point in just repeating these for the sake of it so I will just add ... although what is broken my appear beyond repair .. given time, the means and the will, then some things can be fixed and become not necessarily more whole, but even more beautiful and complete .. take for example kintsugi .. (I have met and known quite a few individuals over a good many years, who I consider fine examples of this kind of recovery) .. There now, having got that off my chest, I just need to congratulate you on this fine ink you have laid down here for us to enjoy .. Neville 😎🌻👍

Paul Bell said:
Time waits for no man or woman, and regrets maybe few.
I think we\'re all guilty of not saying the words, and I don\'t doubt time has run out for plenty who wished they had.
So definitely a great lesson for people before the sands run out.

sorenbarrett said:
A beautiful poem of recognition and gratitude for those things and relationships we have at the moment. Time waits for no man and we have no idea what tomorrow holds. A word unsaid is as good as dead. Too late tomorrow when time has past and the opportunity lost. A wonderful poem of seize the moment and let those that are important know how one feels. Very nicely done in good meter and great rhyme it flows.
