The space that has become a chasm, which at one stage was sandwiched in loves embrace, has created vacuum that sounds of reconciliation can no longer traverse. But of course it takes a poet to paint the scene.

I know I am late in getting here Fay but could not pass by without leaving my mark .. What a magnificent tribute to those who fell for their country and never again trod upon the soil of their homeland .. such an absolute waste and a crime unimaginable .. x

It is the youth that is tapped for its:
Innocence
Fervor
and by the old rule of war, not the sole son of the family,
so as their blood is shed in the warmth of their chorus, that you have so eloquently poetized,
there is someone back home to fulfill the final rites.

Black Rock knows best .. Love it but neva mess with it .. the sea that is .. nor it, for that matter, since both are clearly forces far greater than we are .. Quite literally poemed to perfection dear Fay ............ x

I love the way you have described a relationship crippled by what seem to be irreconcilable differences. The couple, staring at each other across the great divide, represent so well that inability to see each others side. That relationship worth saving begs silence and another chance. Love this, it\'s a fav!

You evoke for me a whole spectrum of silences in a relationship, Fay. I really should thank you for at least some of them, if by no means all.

and exist in a state of perpetual poetic bliss

reconstructing silence is something we all have to do at some point and even several times a lifetime and it has been so underrated as well! Thanks Fay, for the uplift and the hope!

\'you\'ve got me packing me bags,\' lol
an idyllic portrait of a rejuvenating, hike
accompanying a most worthy ode,
so wonderfully worded dear Fay

indeed, there must be so many forgotten tales
and Sea-swallowed despairing screams
buried within those thundering waves..
only those towering rocks left as witness
till they too fall victim to nature\'s eroding, indifference
(such a thought provoking read, dear Fay)

Awesome place Fay! I was walking in such a locale some months ago and it was breathtaking. And as it goes, a poem issues soon after, and just as serene.

long ago myths and legends given to our minds allow poetry to luxuriate when alone in the right places. those stories live-on in your words.

Dear Fay, you express so beautifully natures balm upon the soul. I love the pic of the solitary walker who stands and appreciates the forest, both undisturbed. You were truly inspired to write this gem on a poem, and it can\'t help but be a fav for me

Our unrelenting pursuit of happiness, unfortunately, doesn’t allow us the natural cycle to pause and reflect, otherwise we would take your verses to heart to refresh and recharge.

Blackrocks like these have for eons reminded men to stay clear, for even the mightiest of vessels have lost and left many in tears. Your homage to them is well prosed indeed.

Such a tale of woe, told so well dear Fay. We truly are no match for this natural world and all it\'s pitfalls. Whatever makes us think that we are masters. Such a good write!
