Notice of absence from Tristan Robert Lange
Friends, I’m doing my best to keep up with comments. 😅 I’m still current on my own poems and first replies on others’ work, but this season has been a bit of a twister. Figured I’d drop a quick note so you don’t think I’ve vanished or gone flaky.
Read. Write. Rise. Realize. 🤘💀🖤

Serenity
A blue, cloudless sky
Covers the serene landscape.
There is a Spring breeze.
Disturbance
The ground shakes beneath;
Rocks rumble and the earth quakes—
Birds flock and take flight.
Paroxysm
Molten lava flows
Following an eruption.
Life encased in ash.
Primary Succession
Time passes like clouds.
Green shoots arise from hard ash.
From death comes new life.

Pyroclastic displays are both awe-inspiring and terrifying in the same breath!
Without doubt..Thank you for reading and commenting! Much appreciated, friend! ☺️🙏
Reminds me of that chase scene in the Secret Life of Walter Mitty, volcanic plume swallowing up the fleeing compact car.
Indeed! Great film!
His best film, I dare say.
I agree.
Good write T. To pinch a poet's saying (not plagiarising though): 'You can beat an egg, but can ya beat a bit of... a paroxysm?' [Or fill in blank of whatever you wish]. I'm talking utter rubbish now. lol.
LOL. Oh yes, I know the phrase…because, who doesn’t use paroxysm in their everyday vernacular! 😂 Thank you so much for reading and commenting and making me laugh! You are a blessing, my friend! 🙏❤️
There's the saying:' There's a sentence one doesn't hear every day'.
Exactly! That saying...right there! 👆 LOL! 🤣🤪
Oh I dunno, maybe we use it nearly every day. lol.
LOL! 😂
Excellent write Tristan
Thank you Tony! 🙏
You're welcome
The cycle of life, a wonderful thing well expressed in this poem
Indeed. Thank you. I truly appreciate your time and your feedback. 🙏❤️
Excellent work.
Thank you, Thomas! I truly value your time and your response. 🙏❤️
Give me the serenity, the rest is too mind blowing. I don’t fancy the lava fllows after seeing stuff on Pompeii. Having said that, your haikus are awesome Tristan.
\"Mind blowing\" indeed, and it was actually Pompeii I had in mind as I crafted this, of course, to be a metaphor of our own inner cycles of cataclysmic eruption 🌋. Thank you so much for evoking the place I had in mind when writing this! That truly makes my day, knowing you've visited there! One day I hope to. Thank you, most importantly, for your read and valued input, my friend! 🙏❤️
Salutations for great haikus, their interconnectedness and the account of the process they convey. 👍
Thank you Dave! I truly appreciate your feedback so much! 🙏
