Kurt,

Your Grandmother,
“Catherine”,
was spot on...
‘—some of us are just more human than others’!

The Present Calls (+9)
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

You’ve begun the day with a great share!
I can paraphrase all the stanzas and you’d see how relatable they are.

Suffice to say, paraphrasing the first is enough transparency...the rest would follow suit!

• “The Present Calls”

Yes, I’ve unstopped ‘the drain’,
I’ve kissed ‘the pain’, and
I’m letting ‘nature run its course’!

You, Me, Us, Et Al (+4)
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

• “You , Me, Us, Et Al”
A gem of a message encapsulated within your four couplets! Brilliantly done!


These postings are absolutely delightful
and cleverly penned!

...and
‘this is the absolute final time’
that I’ll...


I’ll let you fill in after the ellipsis!

Living Beyond
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

I thoroughly enjoyed all three brilliant poems!

• “Living Beyond”
So very happy you were
‘Reborn a poet
and then set free’
to write all that you do and globally share your talents that will
‘live beyond wealth
—and majesty’

• “The Fountain”
Brilliantly penned as your muse wanted...I am certain!
‘If the pain is too great,
my heart you may take
—as I suture you back
from the brink’
Wow! I absolutely love this stanza!!

• “What Darkness Brings”
As I was reading this beautiful poem, it reminded me of the night my father died...
‘The sun has now left
with my hopes not bereft

Only the night
—points to heaven above’

This one I shall read to my mom. It will make her smile!

Thank you for sharing your beautiful poems!

Shining A Light (+2)
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

Two more super additions...

• “The Gene”

‘DNA always proffered as bait’...
I suppose there’s some good and some bad in all of us that we pass down. No one is perfect!

• “A Viking Crest Ablaze”

This poem reminded me of the great VIKING series presented on the History channel which I very much enjoyed watching!

Thank you for sharing your superb writings!
I’m looking forward to reading Volume 3.
These April writings are amazing!

My Will On Fire (+3)
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

• “My Will On Fire”

“Each time when it almost mattered,
It mattered not that much”

Unfortunately, to my detriment, to me it always matters! It’s hard to distance myself! When I have to do so, the pain is always there! I try to justify it...but it never goes away! I tend to compartmentalize!

A lot to think about...
A lot to ponder upon...
Thanks to your poetry...
It shall be done!

An Orphan\'s Silence (+9)
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

Exceptional writes...as always!

The first and the last have affected me the most because of this weekend’s sad news...the passing of a friend! Hadn’t seen her for two years. We kept in touch via phone conversations and postcards. She never hinted to the fact that she was dying with ovarian cancer. She was the kind of person that wouldn’t share her pain so that we wouldn’t suffer along with her! She dealt with it all alone. She’s gone at age 59! No more suffering for her! That’s the good part.
The bad part...
I wasn’t there to see her one more time!

Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

• “Cream Always Rises”
So, so true!
And...
‘The truth never captive,
enchained—or then owned’

Beautifully expressed!

One rhetorical question for thee...

How far down did that elevator go?


Metaphorically brilliant!

I\'m back to editing \'An Anthony Of Perception\' Vol #3, and still have 500
pages left to go. I\'m hoping to do 10-15 pages a day and be done by the
end of March. I\'d like to send it to the publisher before April 1.

Then, it\'s on to the next Cutty adventure...

Thanks
