Once Upon A Word
sorenbarrett said:

Now this is a poem with good rhyme and meter that speaks its message in metaphor but it is clear the power of a word in all things good or bad and is a fave

Pigeons at the Table 🐦
sorenbarrett said:

Full of incongruities, dualities, the illogical and random plays discordant music of words and it pleases the ear while taking the mind in a dervish dance. A fun read.

The Wall I Never Painted
sorenbarrett said:

Many well written lines in this poem that maintains good form, flow and rhyme. I seems to be a challenge to someone that is seen as superficial and false in many ways. Very well done

Star-Thirsted Mind
Poetic Licence said:

This is someone having a real question and answer sessions with themselves internally and the world around them. The journey we take in life is like a giant puzzle and sometimes we won\'t find all the pieces, so do we give up or keep looking, a fascinating, interesting and very well written write, enjoyed the read

Star-Thirsted Mind
sorenbarrett said:

Questions never end and when one is answered the answer changes and new questions appear. A never ending puzzle and good it is such or like completing any other puzzle it is put away in its box and forgotten. Very nice
