Kurt,
WOW!!
These ‘Dreamsleep’ are extraordinary. There’s so much I want to say about them…but I shall refrain. I do not want to take away or diminish in any away what they mean to me; however,
I DO want to say with all my heart…
Thank You For Sharing.

One Last Time
Laura🌻 said:
Kurt,
As I read “One Last Time”, for some reason I felt a certain sadness.
I guess with age and experience we come to realize that we’re
‘not here to save the world’. Hopefully we’ve made a bit of a difference. When we approach a certain period in our life, we’re no longer ‘here to ride the wave’.
That ship has sailed.
As we grow and blossom into our youthful self, we feel we can
‘save the world’.
As we approach our twilight years, we realize what is done is done…enough…che sarà sarà!
‘Time on trial my last denial
—on distant Ronan land’
Is this Ronan, Montana you’re referring to?
When I saw the word in your poem, I was wondering about its relevance…so I thought it might be a place you’ve visited during one of your many travels.
(When I read “Searching For Crazy Horse” for the second time, I was curious to know the locations of the places you wrote about. So I looked them up on a map to have an idea of your travels.)

Breakaway
Laura🌻 said:
Kurt,
Glad to see your ‘Dreamsleep’ post.
After reading your written words,
‘to stab and poke in rich delight
a chance to ride the storm’
‘in search of that elusive net
—still guarded and unwon’,
I sensed a certain familiarity while reading the words. I read them more than once…
and that sense of familiarity got stronger.

\'Born young until myself instilled
as deja vu reminds
Of Autumn snow my heart aglow
—new memory in rhyme\'..
these lines are so subtle and distilled,
they ink-out imagery of the memories I thought I had long forgotten,
a great write, Kurt
thank you!

\'gunshots without starter lines
tears before smiles,
learning to forget
forgiving to ascend,
this be that promise
of our lullaby realities, in life..\'
couldn\'t help but try and offer
my feeble verse, in reply
thanks for sharing and inspiring, dear Poet

L. B. Mek said:
we spend so much time, contemplating
and trying to conceive, the \'who\'
of \'what\' we want out of life, lost
in our choices, spoilt
while assuming the role of victim,
when in actuality
its more than likely, \'who\' we are
was evident from childhood
and we\'ve been working towards becoming and realising, that reality
all long..
but, we don\'t like
incorporating the simplicity of Nature\'s guidance
we want to make it all a journey, dwelling
on questions we\'ve long since answered
choosing to ask for ever-more, futile demonstrations
of proof, fate - hope?
\'Deeper Roots
To bloom
where you’re planted
Flower
on the sill\'..
we arrived into this world, with all the tools necessary
to achieve,
what we can conceive, enough of:
to dream...
(this is your Poetry, at its most subtly Profound
and accessibly relatable,
thanks for choosing to share, dear Poet)..
humbly, I read and learn

\'The Present, an undivided instant\'
\'The Past, left captive\'
\'the Future escaping
—wishes deceive\'
\'motion incarnate
senses believed\'..
(forgive my rudeness, once again
my friend
but this is how, your brilliant poetry presented itself to me)
this is such a layered write, Kurt
I can imagine spending an entire afternoon just discussing its multiple concepts and angles, maybe while sharing a bottle of a crisp Bartenura Moscato among like minded friends,
sitting at an idyllic Piazza... lol
(what\'s an imagination for, if not daydreaming)
thanks for sharing
