Moses Walked (+1)
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

• ā€œMoses Walkedā€
A very inspirational read.

Living our life as a journey of faith. If we’re afraid, we need ā€˜to shift that fear to faith, from doubt to peace’.

I am uncertain, fearful and nervous about what lies ahead…but faith will help me through this life journey.

Thank you for sharing your beautiful poem.

Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

I read this unique little gem a few times…and repeatedly I couldn’t help myself but reference it to the intricacies of present politics.

Thank you for sharing.

Kurt,

• ā€œā€¦To God’s Earsā€

…and you’d be as brilliant a music composer as you are in composing poetry.

A huge Amen for your beautifully composed poem.

Rolling Downhill (+1)
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

• ā€œRolling Downhillā€
At times, now more than ever (at least for myself), we feel we’re rolling downhill beyond the speed limit. Can we put our foot on the break to slow down? I wonder!? At least the ā€˜Fat Lady’ is still singing… ā€˜unrhymed’ or otherwise.

• ā€œTo Kiley, Hunter, Braden & Parkerā€
I love this poem as much as I love ā€œSammy and Bumpersā€.
That naughty Knothead upsetting everyone. Such a sneaky little Elf…
’Two silver reminders
esconded to beguile’
So glad TC and Melissa’s mom and dad went downstairs first to make sure that Knothead was gone…’At Least Until Tonight’.
It was very clever of Sissy and Buddy to ask Sammy and Bumpers for help. They did their job…as we know they would because they’re awesome! 🐿🐿

Thank you for sharing my dear Poet.

Invisible Ink (+1)
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

It’s a blessing and an honor to read your exquisite poems.
• ā€œInvisible Inkā€
The ink may be invisible, but not your brilliance…remarkably profound.
I’m so glad you followed the lead.

• ā€œAutumn Breezeā€
ā€˜ Lasting treasures so defined,
lace the corners of my mind’
ā€˜Every hope and wish redeemed
—melting fast this winter freeze’

Impressive and beautiful couplets! I can feel the meaning of your penned words. While reading them, I find myself within those scripted words…a surreal journey—my dear Poet.

Thank you for sharing your uplifting, desirable and much needed art.

Laura🌻

Quietude (+1)
L. B. Mek said:

we all need something or someone
to help us
find our North or South
in life
only then, can we set a direction
with hopes
of finding, some form of salvation..
a thought provoking read,
thanks Kurt

Circulus Quadratus
Draven said:

I love that line, a circle squared from the inside out. And the difference sometimes between what we love and what we need. A lot to think about in just a few words. Nicely written :)

Nocturnal Mystery (+1)
L. B. Mek said:

I never blame people
for endlessly, seeking distractions
alternative being
relentlessly seeking, second chances...
(A write I relate with
at such an intimate level, dear poet
great wording as well)
just in case
let me take this opportunity
to wish you and your loved ones
a very Merry festive season
and a peaceful, New Year
Thanks for sharing
all your great reads!

\'Upon A Midnight Clear\' (+1)
L. B. Mek said:

\'Years add together
with hope on the run\'
(do you too, get a shock
at that grey haired reflection
every morning, reminding
our youthful heart\'s
there\'s a reason, we\'re
rinsed-out, of all ambition)
such a poignant write, thanks Kurt

Wildcards (+2)
L. B. Mek said:

\'our minds
have been, sentenced
we no longer dream\'..
so very true, dear Poet
nowadays, all we\'re left with
are mirages, behind flickering
eyelids

Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

Two very meaningful and special writes. Faith is my guide…more today than ever before.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts so cleverly expressed. I especially like the ending of ā€œCheckmateā€ā€¦
ā€˜all thoughts zero-sum’.

Kurt,

ā€˜The well ever deepening,

A super couplet.

Are you having a conversation with Saint Thomas Aquinas?šŸ˜‰

Dreamsleep
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

I’ve actually been hoping for this poem ā€œDreamsleepā€.

A magnificent beginning to your poem…
and a promising ending which makes me look forward to many, many, many more ā€˜Dreamsleep’ poems you’ll be writing.

Thank you for sharing your amazing gift.

Thanks. No dash because the meaning IS the magic. They\'re not two
separate things. For brevity\'s sake I omitted the IS.

Appreciate the commenting.

Creation\'s Tears (+1)
Kurt Philip Behm said:

I have 4, and I hate to brag, but Braden tests as genius. As a 7 year old, he’s hard to stay ahead of. He loves mechanical things and can do the most complex Lego arrangements that leave me wanting…

Kurt,

• ā€œBraden’s Songā€
I suppose one can win the game but not beat it.

A very astute grandson.
The apple doesn\'t fall far from the tree.

Thank you for sharing.

Creation\'s Tears (+1)
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

• ā€œCreation’s Tearsā€

Before I read your masterfully scripted poem this morning, I heard the devastating news about the deadly massive tornadoes. It truly saddened me . Each time something like this happens, it makes me appreciate my life more…no matter the pain and the heartaches.

…and I believe God is still crying, IMHO; this also saddens me.

I DO appreciate your poetry more and more each day. Thank you for sharing.
