    • Everything fading until there are no colours left at all…..this is the truth.

      • hello dearest Benny that is what happens I’m okay but a part of me has changed thank you for the understanding 💕

    • No place like home. I wonder if the moon is recycling our souls. Sometimes everything looks correct painted in black. My complete & utter condolences. ~hugs~

      • thank you dearest poet for the love my garden turned cold and dark I gave this painting to my son’s wife I don’t know if I made the right choice but she understood 💕

    • I feel your loss in your words, and the picture is a good representation of how you feel.

    • Powerfully penned, Brenda. The words work well with the painting my friend. It does represent how you feel. Appreciate you.

    Always

      Always If my heart were to suddenly become the sum of stone I would want your names chiseled over the surface to forever have a place In the forever element of this poetic face Drifting the rifts of time and space Wherever it is we go when we go I would take you with me always in all ways ***Cipher Poems ***

    • This life you are trying to figure out is a puzzle. Who are you living for? Good questions.

    • Excellent. Love the wording and construction of this write.

    • I like everything but the end

      “Just so you know”

      It felt unfinished, it felt as if it didn’t fit with the rest.

      The rest felt powerful and driven.

    • The sacrifice palpable, the suffering unimaginable. It’s significant that people see war as this thing that just “happens”, not considering all the coordination, planning and propaganda that goes into it. They don’t accidently happen….never mind that it makes NO sense that humanity would be MORE warlike with the progression of time, but it certainly appears as if there is more war now than ever before in known history….and that’s a LOTTA planning & coordination! And propaganda (to “prop the agenda”)

      Great tribute for D Day, EZ Joe. Good to see you again. I appreciate their sacrifice.

    • I agree 100%. “…it makes NO sense that humanity would be MORE warlike with the progression of time, but it certainly appears as if there is more war now than ever before in known history….and that’s a LOTTA planning & coordination! And propaganda (to “prop the agenda”

      Good to hear from you again.

    • “Death is death.”
      “Peace is strangled at birth.”

      The whole piece moved me. War is gruesome and no one wins. We must remember all of those who served, fought and lost their lives in the pursuit of peace. Funny how fighting is the way to find peace.
      Those two lines just stuck with me. Very good peace.

      • Heroic things are done in every war. Men rise up to give beyond the common measure of courage. But war never brings lasting peace. There has been no war to end all war. There’s just a continual slough through hell. Thanks for reading and sharing your thoughts. 🌼
