    • Well now, this is quite loaded with some serious wording! Not easy I am sure, to carry the rhymes along as you did.
      And, it’s a rewarding read, that I enjoyed very much.

      • Thank you very much Styxian. I’ve been trying to have more control over that meter and syllable count the pieces flow, so it’s a little more work but I’m liking it so far.

    • Beautifully penned, Wally. Excellent write my friend. Nicely done. Appreciate you.

      • Thanks Damian.
        I find myself more immersed in trying to stay with that meter and syllable count with my latest work but I’m enjoying it.

    • Professionally done, Wally. Each followed the same syllable count and I like the alternating rhyme scheme. And for the meaning, I think the chosen words are just right to convey the yearnings of the heart. 🙂

      • Thank you Tim. I’ve been working more on that lately. I usually go off script or rhythm, or make the lines longer with internal rhyme added with wordplay. I have several goals for 2026 and hope to up my game.

      • It’s one of those writes when the music in the night takes you back to those cherished recollections. I know we all have them.

    Secret Agent

    Having the burden of carrying the emotionHe goes through life always hiding the obvious truthThe lairs of his heart run as deep as any oceanLike centuries, ever since the days of his youth He carries the messages of peace and...
