Half Life
LaurašŸŒ» said:

Dear Kurt,

You are super at penning *compendious and powerful writings.
ā€œHalf Lifeā€ is a perfect example.
I suppose weā€™re not the only ones agingā€¦so is time.

Thank you for sharing.

LaurašŸŒ»
P.S.ā€” *compendious is one of my favorite words I learned when I was learning the English language. I thought it was appropriate to use it in my comment to your poem.

Kurt,

I love and admire your ability to express yourself via your ā€˜Dreamsleepā€™.
I like to call them
ā€˜golden nuggetsā€™ā€¦
powerful, poignant and succinctā€¦as in this reminder of what is happening at the present time. Serving oneself at the expense of others is destructive and unconscionable.

The 8th Deadly Sin
LaurašŸŒ» said:

Kurt,

Your ability to write is phenomenal. This vivid and heartbreaking poem has just made me think of my momā€™s good friend. Sheā€™s a mom who lost her son in the manner by which youā€™ve so uncannily penned. Sheā€™s still suffering and ridden with guilt. One day Iā€™ll be able to share your amazing poem with herā€¦perhaps at a memorial. I donā€™t think sheā€™s ready for it yet.

Thank you for sharing your gift.

Something More
L. B. Mek said:

that\'s a brave poet, indeed
nor a mere wannabe, like I
(my words
like most of us, I fear
are diluted in ink
one shade of me, the rest
of those dreams I wish
to sift, free
from my confused, enjambment
scribbles..)
thanks for sharing, dear Poet

Wowā€¦a very powerful ā€˜Dreamsleepā€™.

A poetā€™s sacrifices will not be in vain. Their poems will live and keep them aliveā€¦they will never die. Once their seeds are planted, they will germinate and continue to grow. We will remember their bravery.

Thank you for sharing, my dear Poet.

These are so beautiful, I can hear the cherubs sing their song is so serene,
I can feel the peace in the Heavenly place,
Just as I can see the unblemished beauty of their innocent face

There is inertia in our circumstances, but conviction does not accept idleness. As to avarice, indeed, chasing the last baton. Perhaps this is Putin\'s malice. Thank you for your deep thought poems.

Kurt,

ā€˜Where wishes live to hope again

As I finished my sixth round of the second cycle, I do believe and hopeā€¦again!

Thank you for sharing these two relatable poems from your ā€˜(1st Book Of Prayers May, 2019)ā€™.
I read your two great poems today. I reflected upon themā€¦and now I acknowledge them with my comments while ā€˜Humbly I Prayā€™. Perfect ending to my day.šŸ™šŸ»

Kurt,

This poem is the ultimate for meā€¦especially now. Iā€™ve been reading your work for five years. Journeying through your poetry, your comments, and the characters in your novels, Iā€™ve realized that whenā€¦

ā€˜Climbing the mountain,
never look down
focus above you
reach for the crown
Others who failed
and others to come
will follow the tracks
ā€”that lead zero sumā€™

Thank you for sharing your pen.šŸ™šŸ»
