The obligatory smokescreen

Posted on Sat, 20 Jan 2024

The obligatory smokescreen eradicated by the un-choreographed moment- I loved this peek behind the curtain of families; the pretense and hidden truths when it comes to pomp and circumstance and feelings. The smile at a family gathering can be...

Powerful poetry, weaving

Posted on Sat, 20 Jan 2024

Powerful poetry, weaving shadows, not quite sure what makes this bird so mysterious. I don't think I've ever seen a magpie, had to google it and found a video about magpie's befriending a lady who now cares for them. The birds were very...

Squeezing onion-juice; not heard it put that way before. Your poem is charged with turbulent energy and I loved it.

The healing spirit of animals

Posted on Fri, 19 Jan 2024

I agree with all of the above comments; this was a hoot to read. You create hysterical characters and make me laugh at their absurdity.

The melodic verses are

Posted on Tue, 09 Jan 2024

Autobiography of a water

Posted on Sat, 06 Jan 2024

Autobiography of a water droplet, a brilliant take on the water cycle and a well written poem. I enjoyed the journey and philosophical thoughts from the droplet.
