Like A River After Rain
gray0328 said:
poem is a vivid, emotionally charged portrait of anger, frustration, and isolation, expressed through a mix of surreal and elemental imagery. It reads like a moment of inner eruption — a glimpse into someone overwhelmed by their feelings, unable to find release or recognition. Well Done Katie

A heart felt piece Katie that I have come to feel through the years working with the autistic, retarded, mentally ill they all have something to teach us. We are all human and not that much different.

What was Lost
sorenbarrett said:
Duality in opposition, where opposites attract they also grow weary and in this poem there is this push and pull that both keeps things together but causes great discomfort. It is as two nations tied to each other out of convence and reliance but adversaries pursuing different values and aims. Nicely written

What a fabulous poem Katie! I sometimes think we try to fix other things when we cannot fix ourselves. Your imagery and plot was very entertaining. Nice work.

Katie, this poem understands repair as both physical and inward. The measured pace, the attention to weight and effort, and that stilling at the close all feel true. It’s gentle, grounded, and affirming. Beautifully done, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

This carries a lovely tension between stillness and effort. I love how the physical act of repair mirrors the inner work—the slow tortoise pace makes the eventual rise feel earned, gritty, and quietly triumphant.

An abstract metaphor to represent what we can change and what must be left behind.

Now this is a lovely metaphor Katie it is painted with beautiful imagery that puts in vivid contrast that, that needs repair. The introduction of the heart at the end emphasizes that there are some things that lie beyond our capacity to repair. Beautifully done Katie

Katie, this is immersive and unsettling in the best way. It moves from ease to danger so fluidly that the shift almost sneaks up on you. That tension lingers long after the read. Well done, my friend. Powerful write. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
