Dominic, this carries real weight. The language dismantles power without shouting, and that repeated vow gives the ending its gravity. It feels communal, determined, and earned. Powerful piece. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

If only it was as easy as: \'Well, we can\'t trust someone with a dodgy hairstyle/ rug / wig as that!\' Or, as an aside, in a comedy show: \'Ohh, I wouldn\'t like to work with a man who wears red trousers\'. lol.

At The Headland In Springtime: ( April, 2025)
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Dominic, this feels expansive and grounding all at once. There’s a calm authority in the way the land speaks back…steady, ancient, unbothered by time. I feel restored just reading it. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

There is a salt air in this poem that is a mental word picture of a place I can see well. Nicely done Dominic it leaves me with a haunting feeling of being there and the sea that is the home of us all.

Good write D. Yes, modernity, e.g. some remakes of films are never as good as the originals; they just ruin the originals.
Cooeee - you got \'verified\'? Some of us are not human on here, ya know. Dunno how we get in. lol.

This is beautiful, Dominic. There’s a stillness here that doesn’t freeze…it listens, and in that listening, something hopeful begins to breathe. A wonderful write, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Childhood...( Inspired By Dylan Thomas)
Friendship said:
Beautifully done, my friend. The poem revolves around the innocence, beauty, and wonder of childhood, contrasting them with the limitations and complexities of adulthood. The poet encompasses the perception of childhood as a magical, expansive time filled with joy, possibilities, and a deep connection to nature, ultimately lamenting the loss of this purity and freedom as one matures.

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Dominic, this is a luminous meditation on memory and time. The imagery moves from wonder to distance with such patience, letting childhood remain sacred even as it recedes. The final turn toward limits lands softly, but powerfully. Very well done and a fave, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Beautifully worded this poem brings back childhood innocence to an adult world through the eyes of memory of one\'s own past days and the observation of small children eyes new to the world. A lovely piece Dominic that calls out to a blood stained world to look back to better times. A fave

The feeling I get from this poem is woven of two principle threads, night and nature that form the magical fabric of an enchanted feeling in this work. Well done Dominic

Good write D. Yes - I went on a night time woodland walk and fell over a fallen branch - so I say! lol. Should have brought a torch with me.

Dominic, this is sharp and deeply reflective. The consumer imagery builds like a slow indictment, but the real punch comes when you turn the mirror back on all of us. “And I” lands with brutal honesty. Thoughtful, restrained, and very effective. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

It is the poetic wording of images and metaphor that adorn this pet peeve of mine about the glitter of modern society that gets the fave on this one. Very nicely crafted in such a smooth plastic version so fitting for the subject matter. Well done

Sundazed & Snowblind: (Inspired by the Cocteau Twins)

Here the beauty of reality combines with the fantasy of elves and yet seasons still come and go and the process of aging occurs. Loss with age casts a sad shadow one of melancholy and nostalgia. Well written Dominic

This poem conveys the feelings blended in senses. it is as exquisite as being love struck and vivid as an acid trip and as joyful as a child at Christmas. It overflows with a blend of sensations. With good flow it pours off the page. Well done Dominic and a fave

This poetic set of tercets is spiritual in nature evoking a blessing on those that listen. It is a prayer of peace and well being nicely written.
