patriciajj commented on: Sparkles and Glims by FLboy555 4 years 46 weeks* ago* I read this twice because of: I read this twice because of its intricacy and power. From your summit of vast perspective and profound insight, you turned your (And our!) "stagnant lifestyle" into a magnificent, precious gift. Your "pristine heart" gives us a latern of beauty to marvel at, to live by. Truly inspired art. [ go to comment ]
patriciajj commented on: свобода by lizardking 4 years 46 weeks* ago* I was captivated by the first: I was captivated by the first stanza that has the majesty of a sweeping overture as you present astounding analogies illustrating the transience of human life. Quickly it swells into moving declarations of realities we often hide from, but need to remember in order to keep a broader perspective and an appreciation for the time we now have. You say it with elegant candor as you shift our focus to a time-worn grave and thoughts beyond our tiny, fleeting lives. But what I found most intriguing was your title. From Bulgarian (I hope I got that right) it translates as "freedom". How perfect! I gained much from this poem. Thank you. [ go to comment ]

patriciajj commented on: Tree Service by saiom 4 years 46 weeks* ago* Thank you! Every tree that: Thank you! Every tree that falls is a tragedy. We lose more beauty, climate stability, privacy, clean air, habitat for wildlife, physical and mental health, fertlile soil, noise control, light pollution control and hundreds of years of miraculous life. I wish more people were as dedicated to saving them as you are. Love the sense of irony here. Service! What a joke. [ go to comment ]

allets commented on: PERSISTENCE OF MEMORY by georgeschaefer 4 years 46 weeks* ago* Phalluses: Extra ones on the male shoulders like lollipops - so that sexism can be equitable.

Steven's model painting, The blue guitar, is also there. :D . Lady A . [ go to comment ]
allets commented on: I Don't Care Anymore. by teresa_r 4 years 46 weeks* ago* Isolation And Trust: . Periodically, we all withdraw from social tragedies, it is a risk. Women can be the hero of their life or victims, searching perpetually for a sitcom family and friends life or picking up the reigns and yelling, H'Yaaa!!! And you are off. . Covid has not stopped me. I bother everyone with texts. I gave up fb (Meta) too intrusive. Family has gone virtual. I still send cards and write letter - inserting poems in them. I am re-reading my library. Time to hit the second hand bookstore to find your favorite authors! We only thrive as social animals! It requires cultivation of a shiekding and healthy dose of not following. lead!. Lady A Be well.

Starward commented on: This Christmas Season by randyjohnson 4 years 46 weeks* ago* I wondered if you might have: I wondered if you might have a Christmas insight for us, and here it is. I think sometimes we forget that the elegac mood is as appropriate to Christmas as festive carolling. In the calendar of liturgical churches, Christmas is followed by the commemoration of multiple murders---the lynching of Deacon Stephen (the 26th), and Herod's mass murder of the children in Bethlehem (the 28th). Thank you for reminding us of our losses at a time when human nature, being damaged, is often tempted to forget or ignore them. [ go to comment ]
