The Reasons Falter (+1)
LaurašŸŒ» said:

Dear Kurt,

ā€¢ ā€œThe Reasons Falterā€
Youā€™ve raised the bar with the great questions youā€™ve posed. Much to ponder upon. I love the way your poetry challenges its reader to think beyond expectations and not to hesitate.

ā€¢ ā€œGiving Allā€
I shall give it my all. I will ā€˜Writeā€™ā€¦I will ā€˜Singā€™ā€¦I will ā€˜Liveā€™ā€¦and most most of all, I will ā€˜Loveā€™. Thank you for your continued support and inspiration.

Invenire Vitam (+1)
Bella Shepard said:

If I\'ve translated this correctly it means Find Life. I love the first stanza, forgiveness and passion, so important to life. I think we wade through that flood of life every day, at least that\'s my interpretation. A thoughtful poem that makes me ponder and use the old brain. Thank You!

I feel at a lost to review your poetry. It\'s so good but I don\'t speak latin that well so I\'m not sure what the title is. I only wish I was smarter! :)

Dear Kurt,

Your ā€˜Dreamsleepā€™ is powerful. It poignantly states how a sudden attack can change certain circumstances in a flash.

I love how youā€™ve encapsulated your message.

Youā€™re very welcome, Laura.

Canus Temporis
LaurašŸŒ» said:

Dear Kurt,

ā€˜Aging Timeā€™ā€¦great title as a reminder of the passing of time. Truthfully ten years ago I never thought about time as aging. As the years go by so does time; hence our time ages along with our years.

Thank you for sharing this ā€˜Dreamsleepā€™ gem.

Beautiful sentiment in this poem. I can truly relate, being of the older persuasion, the passing of time can grow so sweet. Thank you for the thought of the day.

Half Life
L. B. Mek said:

\'the future loses two\'
that\'s the problem
with the infinity in humanity\'s
incomprehension..
every factoid, is a thought away
from its future, as debunked theory
and so
our future, is an endless
Autumn, of assumption leaves
decaying
in the gaze, of belated realisation\'s
progress...
(just such a thought provoking write, Kurt
I couldn\'t help but try and scribble
a little poetic reply..
thank you!)

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

This 8th deadly sin is the one that robs the soul, and you\'ve presented this so poignantly. I love the power an depth of your writing.

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

Kurt

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.
