Starward commented on: CLUELESS by georgeschaefer 3 years 2 days* ago* Your statement, that this is: Your statement, that this is an amazing time to be alive, is both very observant, very accurate, and very wise. And I applaud you on all three of those aspects. As a former history major, and maybe a little smarter than I was back then, I am beginning to believe that every era, present and past, is an amazing time to be alive---for those who are alive in it. My grandmother was amazed to see transportation evolve from the railroads through airplanes, and then to the space shuttle---in one lifetime, hers. And I imagine that most people were amazed when that same transportation evolved from saddled horses prancing along footpaths to iron horses gliding along steel rails. Our existence seems to be designed to find wisdom in the lessons of the past, and amazement in the events of the present---whether those events are personal (like a deluxe pizza during a good horror movie) or cosmic (like the observations being made by the James Webb telescope). Thanks for making my afternoon brighter. [ go to comment ]
lyrycsyntyme commented on: ICE CREAM by joy 3 years 2 days* ago* I have to laugh at myself a: I have to laugh at myself a little bit. Initially, I definitely misunderstood what you meant by "..I was checking out a father at the bookstore.." Anyhow : ) A wonderful poetic story with with both the wisdom of years and the heartful nature of understanding. Among which, the idea that the teacher sometimes learns from the students is one to which I, too, can relate. In sense, I suppose, we all can. [ go to comment ]
lyrycsyntyme commented on: CLUELESS by georgeschaefer 3 years 2 days* ago* Mhm. To be alive, in itself,: Mhm. To be alive, in itself, is quite remarkable. Can only hope that many more people get a chance to exist and experience it. You're welcome - thoroughly enjoyed and further enriched by. [ go to comment ]

lyrycsyntyme commented on: Friendship 8 (Intuition) by missburgz 3 years 3 days* ago* Quite an ode, quite a: Quite an ode, quite a lookback through time, at a timeless connection to your soul. Words deeply drenched in all of the reflections and emotions of a history that give them meaning, and then baptized again in that which lasts beyond the ups and downs and falling's apart - love in it's purest form, and an equally purified appreciation of all that one has gotten to experience with another. It rings to me as an honor to what was, and can never be taken away. [ go to comment ]
lyrycsyntyme commented on: Carbon Copy by satishverma 3 years 3 days* ago* One of your most powerful. At: One of your most powerful. At least to me. [ go to comment ]

lyrycsyntyme commented on: Eerie Limerick, A Random Improvisation by S74rw4rd-13d 3 years 3 days* ago* You're welcome, and I see. A: You're welcome, and I see. A way to pass and make good of the difficult time. Many a historical irishman would approve, I imagine. [ go to comment ]
Starward commented on: Eerie Limerick, A Random Improvisation by S74rw4rd-13d 3 years 3 days* ago* Thank you for the comment,: Thank you for the comment, and for the good wish. No metaphorical connection, it really started as a response to the skewed rhythm of how I move on the walker. From where I sit to the bathroom is kind of a long walk, and the return is usually the more difficult part of the round trip. [ go to comment ]
lyrycsyntyme commented on: CLUELESS by georgeschaefer 3 years 3 days* ago* The world is always ending on: The world is always ending on T/v. I suppose, now, that would also need to be said for social media. Away from the satellites and fiber optic cables, the world's doing slightly better. Maybe only slightly, but, I suppose per your desires shared elsewhere, there's a little space to breathe ; ) This is one of yours that, to me, is a "classic". Maybe it's just the way it connects with me, having definitely walked a similar path in the last decade of my life, but I think it's more than that. It has your trademark meshing of personal observation, philosophy and time stamped contemporary culture sown together with dualing needles of self assuredness and self depracation - both feeling sincere. Anyway, definitely thoroughly appreciated here. [ go to comment ]
lyrycsyntyme commented on: SOCIAL DISTANCING by georgeschaefer 3 years 3 days* ago* It's a big world, my friend.: It's a big world, my friend. A big, big world. [ go to comment ]
lyrycsyntyme commented on: Eerie Limerick, A Random Improvisation by S74rw4rd-13d 3 years 3 days* ago* Eerie limerick, indeed. Any: Eerie limerick, indeed. Any metaphorical connection to your current condition? Wishing you all the best, as always. [ go to comment ]
lyrycsyntyme commented on: candy tears by tula 3 years 3 days* ago* Fantastic piece of work: I love this poem, on the whole, but especially "i knew she was / the music / that she listens / to". It wrapped me in, and the next line "dreaming---" seams it all together. [ go to comment ]
lyrycsyntyme commented on: AN ARTIST IS CREATED by joy 3 years 3 days* ago* Beautiful, endearing. It: Beautiful, endearing. It makes me think of the urge, one I know that many poets have felt, to be down on their older, "lesser" writings, and sometimes even disgard them. But, much like this drawing, even truly more primative writes of the poet were telling their own creation story ; ) Very much enjoyed this read and the reflection it brought about. [ go to comment ]
