The One She Can’t Hold
orchidee said:

A terrible thing to experience surely.
Very strange - a life unborn, yet living in a way, until he/she dies so soon.

A sensitive write Christina. Seems the sort of thing I may be able to turn to a hymn-poem - if you wish, and if I can?

Belief can be a rocky road which you seem to be coping with.

My belief has gone as I have described in poems on MPS.

If I Ever Die
Lorna said:

I\'ve always held a quiet thought that Death would be a best friend eventually......... nothing to be scared of.

A heartfelt prayer which is so honest and appealing dear Christina - - those final two lines give a positive end and lift the whole feel of lament - - \" though I can’t feel you now,
I know you’ve been there all along.\" - - a touching read.

And yet the Psalmist says in some places \'How long, O God?\' Even in one place \'Wake up, God\', in modern version.
I may know it too - a negative thought flashes across the mind\'. But what about....?\'.
And so the \'How long\' can change to Him being there \'all along\'

Funeral for Broken Dreams
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

Thanks for sharing CHRIS ~ love this poem which is both funny & sad ! The chemise noire is a nice touch and I love ukuleles they have a melancholy sound ! Like you I have my share of Broken Dreams & Lost Tomorrows so I will join you (in my black PJ\'s) and I will retune my UKE to C-minor. I trust you are less melancholic for penning this moving ode. Yours as always ~ HUGS BRIAN Please check my POEM on Fruity Senryus ~ Thanks B !

BRIAN & ANGELA said:

GOOD EVENING CHRIS ~ Angela here I share a site with BRIAN. I\'m in New Zealand for a YEAR (work exchange) so its 12 noon FRIDAY here so I have plenty of time to reply (I don\'t start work until 2). Love the elegance of your Poem. 20 fine lines and a great description of a moth, but alas for you self abnegation! Moths are unwanted, spoilers of clothes, selfish, ugly, ephemeral, unspecial & squashed! But Im sure you\'re not like that ! I am a BUTTERFLY: Loved, love clothes, generous, cute, lasting, special and NEVER SQUASHED ! You too can be a BUTTERFLY Thanks for sharing : Love ANGELA

Like A Moth
Syd said:

That first stanza drew me in

\"Unwanted, unfeeling,

and alone.

When released into freedom,

I poke holes in all I own.\"

Brilliant poem. Pulled me right in. I hope this is just a temporary feeling.

Take care - Syd

Aww, but even an ugly-looking caterpillar, or whatever, held in the hand, has beauty. We won\'t squash you! :)

So moving Christina - -the words flow into lines of real emptiness at love leaving the place where the heart bleeds when all alone. Very deep read.

The Love is Gone
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

MISSED YOU CHRISTINA ~ WELCOME BACK ! I love the honesty i his Programme as you survey your relationship with your (ex?) Partner ! You renounce you LOVE and then are not sure if it really was LOVE ! A constant ~ a crutch ~ a catch ~ perfection ~ WOW ~ I have been all those things to ex-Partners BUT (as you say without LOVE ~ they count for nothing ! Meant a lot ~ laughing ~ embracing ~ perhaps LOVE ?
HOWEVER whenever a Lady says to \"BRIAN ~ The LOVE is gone !\" I know it\'s time to move on ! Currently I have a loving FIANCEE and we hope to be married when she returns from New Zealand ! Please check my Poems ~ Thanks BRIAN (UK)

Feelings
FredPeyer said:

People all through the ages have grappled with that exact question. What is real? When I touch something, it feels real, but it is all vibration.
Very well written poem with a deep deep question that I think is impossible to answer.

Great!!!
I think you spoke for all of us!

Love and the Universe
FredPeyer said:

Christina, you are so right, love is all there is. Everywhere. Love is what our souls are made of, but then it somehow seems to get lost in the translation to the physical world.
I love your poem. Definitely a fav!

The Next Morning
FredPeyer said:

Incredibly well written, Christina. With just a few words and lines you painted the whole picture, the aftermath, the hurt, and the futility of making any sense of it.
