Nature
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

GRACIAS ROBERTO ~ An excellent picture of "Nature red in tooth and claw". Your poem has a perfect structure of rhyme and rhythm (I'm a performance poet) as befits the awesome subject of actually seeing natures intricate Food Chains and Food Webs at work. With Nature nothing is left to chance. In London's Financial Quarter on can observe Human Vultures at work in oak paneled offices while beggers are dying outside on the street huddled in thin blankets at night in the Winter. The rich will always pick on the bones of the poor. For God's sake please don't elect DONALD TRUMP as President ! Thanks for sharing BRIAN

I will look up The English Lake District. I love mountains and lakes. Thank you for reading and commenting on this poem. I also have it written in Spanish.

The Peaceful Lake
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

HOLA ROBERTO ~ The English Lake District is rated as one of the most beautiful places on Earth. I love the symbiosis of Lake and Mountains ~ especially when they are on a human scale. No Lake longer than 12 miles and no Mountain higher than 3250 feet. All radiating out from Grasmere like spokes on a wheel. Thanks for posting a lovely tranquil poem which stirred my own memories ~ BRIAN.

THANKS ROBERTO ~ As usual an elegant poem (like the italic script !) full of sagacity and reminiscences ! My childhood memories (raised in Liverpool ~ no mean City) are always the most vivid ! Barefoot occasionally on the damp dirty City Streets ! We had no sugar cane ~ but we flew (home made) kites and swam in the rat infested canal ! Thanks for the memory HASTA LA VISTA ~ BRIAN

I am the One Who
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

I AM THE ONE WHO ............. ! IN MY EXPERIENCE ~ It's great when you can look back on successful situations and outcomes and say ~ hand on heart ~ I am the one who ......... made this and that happen. Love is an ephemeral thing and if one has success in Love and looks back (as you do) and say "I am the one who ............... !" then you are twice blessed. Blessed not only by your Lover ~ but also by God Himself ~ AMEN Yours BRIAN

The Summers in South Bronx
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

THANKS RR ~ New York ~ New York is a very very special City ~ A City everyone on Earth should visit at least once !. I've visited a few times and each of the five Boroughs is larger than most Cities and each one is very different ! Manhattan (1.6 M) The Bronx (1.4 M) Queens (2.3 M) Brooklyn (2.6 M) and Staten Island (0.5 M). New York City is wicked at any time of the year ~ So book you plane today and ENJOY ! Thanks for sharing ~ BRIAN

Kurt, your poems call for pondering, for more thought--to grasp the complicated feelings in them.

Memories of you
Kurt Philip Behm said:

Speaking of minds failing ... I wrote this today...

Darkness All I See

What’s left of my remembrance,
now all that stokes the fire

What embered in the springtime,
the winter does conspire

To douse not once but then again,
that spark which set me free

My wood all burnt with forest bare,
—and darkness all I see

(Villanova Pennsylvania: July, 2016)

Memories of you
Kurt Philip Behm said:

Just beautiful—really—beginning to end, but I particularly like these lines ......

"as that indelibly edged memory,
that eternity on end I will remember
as my body withers and my mind fails,
I bear witness to your beauty."
