Aloneliness
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

I love this writing for obvious reasons. You made me aware of your muse a while ago, but this is the first time I met her in a poem; therefore, I consider this the official introduction.

Many times I crave solitude. I crave that oneness with my thoughts to feel at peace.

ā€˜Aloneliness,
most trusted friend
you that I count on
there till the end’

I’ll definitely be there till the end and hopefully vice versa.

Thank you šŸ™šŸ» šŸ¤—

Hollow Grams
Rocky Lagou said:

Okay I love the play on words with the title and this poem is very weighty. The diction is cleverly collected and the meaning is so true. Bravo! šŸ‘

New Memories Rehearse
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

ā€˜Words mate in the fog
as the letters reverse’

ā€˜Sleep only forgiven
as new memories rehearse’

What great couplets!
You’re an amazing poet, my dear friend.

Your Soul To Repast
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

ā€˜But truth has no time limit
No ticket to claim
One choice will release it’

So true…
we have the power
and the choice.

In The Darkness And Alone
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

ā€˜Is part of me still orphaned there,
—in darkness and alone’

I have a suspicion it might be!

No Words Left
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

The ā€˜feeling’, the ā€˜meaning’…
are all there.
(Of course, that’s only my humble opinion.)
Loved it.

If We Were Young Men
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

We’re not that old yet! Let’s continue the fight till the light has been completely extinguished.

I’m glad I’ve come to visit your first postings on MPS. I really, really appreciate your response to the comments you’ve made about your poetry. I like that very much.

Set In Stone
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

One of my Dad’s favorite proverbs…
ā€˜ā€¦il lupo perde il pelo ma non il vizio…’
(the wolf loses its fur but not its vice)

ā€˜ The fly’s in the ointment,
the die has been cast’

It’s so difficult to change those feelings. I will forgive; but it’s so hard to forget…no matter how many years have gone by.

I love the way you wrote this, my dear prolific Poet.

Thank you for sharing.

Very interesting and intriguing…
ā€˜Kissing each memory
that burns’
• ā€œInsomniaā€
I see ā€˜Musing with Laura’ is keeping you awake. Is she misbehaving…again?!
• ā€œAnswering The Callā€
Beautiful words that speak to me.

Your Move…
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

This is a good one. šŸ˜‰I’m pretty good at checkers but not as good at chess.šŸ¤”
Great metaphors.

Yes, ā€˜Complexity knighted’
I shall work on my ā€˜Move’!

Thank you for sharing your location. I’ve been there a few times. The first time I went drove from San Francisco to Vegas’s Mandalay Bay. Had a great time.

The Tragic Cost...

Thanks Laura, do check Harry out. He almost became
the 5th Beatle.

The Tragic Cost...
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

Thank you for remembering some of the best in this memorable poem. I don’t know much about Harry Nilsson, but I will definitely do some research and educate myself. Your written work certainly lends itself to that.

Laura🌻
P.S.- Just learned the sad news about the passing of Meatloaf and Louie Anderson. I became a fan of Meatloaf a few years ago.

Going Home
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt.

• ā€œGoing Homeā€ is
hitting home.
Certainly not welcoming death at this time, but I do like these scripted words,
ā€˜but befriending its shadow
whose blanket I wear
in this carrying wind’

I can almost feel the warmth of that ā€˜blanket’.

Thank you for having masterfully scripted a poem that’s so relatable. Something that only a master of the art can do.

Riptide
L. B. Mek said:

\'Riptide: of life...\'
just a beautifully worded song
of life\'s
Sea of majesty and poetic demise..
(Let us, ride high then
upon those waves, of fate
and seek our shelters
in those hillside\'s, of sand
for as long
as they gift us, that most
perishable of virtues:
Time...)
a lovely read, and thank you
for inspiring my little, scribbled reply

Vamsi Sudha said:

Nice write poet !! this paragraph is interesting

Your memory found me wordless,
too mute to carry on
Trapped between old verbs and nouns,
silence for a song
