Loved the metaphors in this

Posted on Thu, 02 Jul 2015

Loved the metaphors in this poem:

Chaining old times to the grass as we picked it and laughed. Great line.

Also:

She lit a small candle

which flustered a seeming cool

in the bright fired air. And soon after...

This is such a thought

Posted on Sat, 30 May 2015

This is such a thought provoking poem Shannan. I agree with Bee, just love the idea of capturing petals, before they are cried as tears.

I have many dried rose petals which I've collected over the years, they all hold memories, good and...

Hi Tina,

Hi Tina,

I can honestly say, reading this is as near to being with my dad in the hospice after he had a massage from one of the nurses, never having had one before, he practically swooned to the point he would have kissed her, had he had...

Hi Rob,

Oh Tina, I flet so much

Posted on Sat, 21 Mar 2015

Oh Tina, I felt so much saddness at reading this piece. Those poor creatures that you got so much pleasure from, now gone.

A loving, tender poem that brings to mind the savageness of nature, that is inevitable.

Hi Tina,

poor Brody, just the thought of Cam would make my blood boil. Like how the last bit makes you think that maybe Cam was growing on Brody.

It's frustrating to think

Posted on Fri, 20 Mar 2015

It's frustrating to think that life is there just waiting to be discovered, and yet I wonder what it would be like to a stumble by chance on something we don't understand.

I like the mystery behind your writing.

Jenny.

Hi Tina,

I certainly remember this poem, it meant a lot the first time I read, now it means even more.

It's a poem that evokes the mystery, passion and magic, that is part of our history and should never be forgotten like your...
