I love this! I've often said that it seems that my thoughts scatter like scared rabbits. I like that you use horses here. Very clever write.

Cindy

I love the comparisons of what is and what was. I especially like the style in which you wrote the poem. It made me think of my own memories of how things were once. It leaves a nice feeling, though somewhat melancholy. I thoroughly enjoyed the poem.

Cindy

One click and your words come to me Black and white Still saying what you meant them to say I never knew you Unaware of your real name Now you are only legend I came a little too late I read in silence Unable to give a voice to the dead In mourning for one I never knew Your poems flow like tears int...

This is a lovely tribute. Beautiful. I didn't know him, but I'm sure it is well deserved.

Cindy

Very moving poem and very sad that he passed. So many things look so tired and worn compared to what they had when I was young. I can imagine how he felt looking at that old dam. Very well written.

Cindy

What a blessing! She's beautiful. Congratulations!

Cindy

This is deliciously melancholly. Love it.

Cindy

This poem made me think of my niece. My family is white. My sister dreamed of beautiful brown skin, as did I. My sister ended up married to a Mexican and had three beautiful children. Her daughter ended up with the darkest skin of the three. It's perfect as far as my sister and I are concerned. My n...

Cindy

It's such a sad place to be. Heart-breaking. This is a very moving poem.

Cindy

Yes, it is the most wonderful freedom of all! Love the poem.

Cindy

Some people are blind to beauty. It can't even be explained or pointed out to them. A sad, one-demensional life. Great poem.

Cindy

Yes, a very happy birthday.

Cindy

Pain is always hungry It eats a lot of time It laps the minutes up like milk - It's drank a lot of mine - It nibbles at the hours From one to twenty-four Then stands there drooling for the next - Always wanting more - It takes the worst It takes the best And moments in between It's not a picky eater...

Cindy

Oh, I love this, because that's exactly what we do as poets/artists. We listen and hear the unuttered. Very lovely poem.

Cindy

How empty the feeling, waiting for the day he would return and knowing now he wouldn't. Punctuated sharply by the lack of the flower. Very moving.

Cindy

Your poem is so magical. It's great to see life as a poem in the making. Any little moment could be the next masterpiece. That's so magical to me.

Cindy

A very sad poem indeed. You have put great beauty in sadness.

This poem is a great reminder that the downs in life don't last forever. A very lovely poem.

Cindy

I love the rhythm and rhyme of this poem. Another very inspirational poem.

Cindy

I feel for those with the alzheimer's condition. One of my greatest fears is losing my mind and/or memory. It would mean losing myself to some dark oblivion. It's a very sad situation. I am so sorry your family must endure such a thing as this. Your poem is very moving.

Cindy

Sounds like a beautiful place to live. This is a very lovely poem.

Cindy

This is a beautiful poem and a beautiful picture. I'm quite impressed with your talents. I'd never heard the term "ekphrastic poetry" before. It's nice to learn something new.

Cindy

This is a soft, beautiful poem. My favorite line is "so tender that I want to fall into you".

Cindy

Can you say that three times real fast? Lol

Cindy

She sure does.

Like the form.

Cindy

I love your description of such a beautiful moment. And so it is also a beautiful poem.

Cindy

I've walked that woodland path before When once, my mortal frame I wore I know the individual tree The moss The fern The filigree Of filtered sunlight through the veil I know I lived I walked the trail Once it was with mortal frame And at that time, you never came Just flora, fauna And the sun I cam...

Cindy

What a beautiful poem about one of your most treasured memories - the moment you first laid eyes on your wife. You're so good at writing such sentiments. I'm sure your wife treasures every word.

Cindy

A lovely poem and picture. I like the form you used. Very nice.

Cindy

Very cute. I like it.

Cindy

I've often watched lines of cars and wondered about the people in them. Where are they going? Where have they come from? It even makes me feel restless in a way.There's even something about the sound of the traffic on a major highway in the distance that makes me restless and wonder.

Cindy

A wonderful poem. I especially like the lines" You've bound me, yes, and knowing this, / my resistance crumbles into bliss".

Cindy

This is a beautifully written poem. I believe God to be a real being. The Bible says his "eye is on the sparrow". And many, many times in the Bible, it says "fear not". I believe there is a place prepared for those who truely follow the Lord. "I go to prepare a place for you...

Cindy

This is so beautiful, as has been said already. I love the phrase "gathering up her skirts".

I love how you describe painting here. So sensuous and intimate.

There's a time and place for everything, as they say.

I like the poem.

Cindy

I love the beautiful wintery scene you've woven here. It feels very magical.

Cindy

Maybe silence isn't so invisible after all Hanging like a fog over the room Thick as pea soup Maybe it has a face This friend of mine My constant companion On the street In an auditorium Yes, even the bustling fairfrounds Silence holds my hand It stands between me And the void of sound So I don't fa...

Cindy

This is a lovely Christmas story. Dickie Sparrow is a fun little character.

Cindy

Locked away like leaves trapped in the icy cell of winter winds. A smile as cold as that? What a great metaphor!

Cindy

This is exceedingly lovely. It's wonderful that your wife knows she is treasured so highly. It can seem such a rare thing these days. It's so great to see you here to share your poetry with us.

I love this. It's so whitty with a really great ending.

I definately don't want to be a turkey. Lol.
