Your poems are so deep in their scope. They have to be read several times to catch the essence, the implicit meaning. Excellent!

Beautiful, Kurt.
We do reach, but the perfect fruit always seems to be too far to pluck.

Kurt,
Wow 🤩...
three powerful writes!
Intriguing and enlightening

Laura🌻 said:
Kurt,
I embrace and always look forward to your ‘Dreamsleep’ poems!
• “Parting Wish”
As your last couplet declares...
There are many times that I too wish not to let go of some of my dreams—especially those that are so special to me!

Left To Weather (+1)
Laura🌻 said:
Kurt,
Your poem reminded me of a certain happy time—teaching seven year olds.
Teaching Reading and Writing was my main focus. One of the lessons in the R&W unit was teaching homophones.
I decided to use the classic poem “Whether the Weather”.
‘Whether the Weather be cold,
Or whether the weather be hot,
We’ll weather the weather,
Whatever the weather
Whether we like it or not.’
It was a fun lesson. By the end of the unit, the students had memorized it. So we used it for the tongue twister lesson, reading comprehension, and of course the Poetry unit.
Thank you for sharing and reminding me of the happy faces of my seven year old students.
Happy memories for sure!

Kurt,
Great poem! Thank you for sharing.
One of my favorite Dylan Thomas quotes...
‘Though lovers be lost,
love shall not’

P.S.-I like the way you used his middle name for the title of your poem!
