I like everything about this piece. The message, the flow, the meanings behind the metaphors...
One of my favorite lines:
"Unconcerned with the ridicule of onlookers
Standing beside a liquefied edge of interpretation"
Totally unique persepctive !! :)

I agree Robert. There are many ways to place the lights in order to get the view one might 'want' us to get, but we have to be strong enough, to see what 'really' is, not just the mirage of make-up and backdrops.
One must be willing to look, before they could ever see.
Excellent writing!

| BINGO!! You are on a roll here, Jude, and this one goes straight into my fav top ten... the evocative metaphors are both scintillating and tantalising, and the whole poem just oozes with "tingle factor", whilst at the same time rooting the emotions in the firm substance of the security of deep friendship: such precious relationships of true connection are indeed the well-spring of life itself. And, in the light of that knowledge, the "I move to higher Where the river travels uphill" seems the glorious paradox that is utterly comprehensible and delightful. Your words here are like the bubbling liquid, the contents of this most precious grail that you speak of! Bring on the bubbly...!! :)) (No, Andy; it's only 1030 and I haven't had a single drop yet!!) TY Kate xx :)) |

Old friends are tired and true, enabling us to trust their motivations where we are concerned. Being human, we all unfold throughout our lifetimes so it is true that we are always just beginning to know one another. We each have so much to offer, that the rewards of sticking with someone for the long haul can be bountiful.
These are great lines:
"I move to higher ground
Where the river travels uphill
And the scenery is embellished with hope"
This poem is a profound statement of hope and faith, Robert. Excellent writing!
Take care,
Sherry

Hi Robert
This is comforting to me just now. I recently dared to embrace
the leading edge or my horizon. My shadow engulfed me from behind
within 24 hours -- still seeking to re-establish equilibreum.
