patriciajj commented on: still, the Earth breathes by redbrick 1 year 8 weeks* ago* This is why I should log in: This is why I should log in here more often. I am richer for reading this vast and delicate glimpse of transcendence. This is transformative meditation: the absurdities and sorrows of the human adventure seem trivial when contemplating the eons of undaunted breathing and majesty around us: a world that will go on quite well without us. Experiencing a oneness with the Earth, observing its breathtaking expanse, whims, moods and ultimate resilience, you exquisitely, in language worthy of the grandeur, raise our sights far above this care-laden existence. Pain is part of the Earthly package, but you learn perseverance from the stormy theater “like the gull that rides the tempest”. Very inspiring! No meditation is complete without entering the silence, and you expressed it with finesse and euphoric beauty in the fifth stanza. This entire expression is an experience, a pilgrimage, a triumph. Applause! [ go to comment ]
redbrick commented on: Distilland by djtj 1 year 8 weeks* ago* This poem is a kaleidoscope: This poem is a kaleidoscope of movement, memory, and mystery. It is a dreamscape woven from distant places, elemental forces, and surreal shifts in perception. The imagery carries an almost hypnotic rhythm, each stanza unveiling a new layer of longing, reckoning, and transformation. There is also an interplay between vast landscapes and intimate emotions, as that of a dance of a flamingo in Bali against the quiet surrender of sleep which creates a tension that feels both cosmic and deeply personal. The final lines settle into a whisper, a resolution, a kind of acceptance wrapped in quietude. Thank you for sharing this intricate piece, one that stays on in the mind like an echo of something half-remembered, half-discovered. [ go to comment ]
redbrick commented on: Down the Vine by HCE 1 year 8 weeks* ago* Your poem pulses with a raw,: Your poem pulses with a raw, searching energ, like a breath taken in the midst of fire and uncertainty, yet carrying the weight of something profoundly sacred. The tension, the questions, the dissonance between existence and transcendence —they all weave together into a rhythm that feels both urgent and timeless. And that final call, the demand for light and warmth, resonates deeply. It is a piece that certainly invites reflection, that challenges perception, and that stands defiantly against the chaos. Thank you for sharing this. Your voice is unflinching, and your words linger. [ go to comment ]

redbrick commented on: Within by patriciajj 1 year 8 weeks* ago* These evoctive words feel: These evoctive words feel like a heartbeat, steady and luminous, weaving their way into something deeper than memory. They capture love—not just in moments or places, but as something elemental, something forged from fire and breath—so breathtaking. It feels like an invitation to step into a universe where connection isn’t bound by time or space but is written into the very essence of being. Thank you for sharing this; it's a reminder that love isn’t only found, it’s recognized, awakened, and lived. [ go to comment ]

redbrick commented on: The Throwaway Children by Misterioso 1 year 8 weeks* ago* Here, amidst the solemn: Here, amidst the solemn reflections, there is rebirth. "Ascending into life born out of one thrown away determined to live" can be seen as a declaration of resilience, of finding meaning beyond the ruins of lost time. The poem does not reject life—it embraces it, acknowledges love, the raising of children, the possibility of seeing the world truly for the first time. It whispers that despite all that passes, despite what is lost, there is still something left to grasp. Most thouroughly enjoyed. [ go to comment ]
redbrick commented on: Desolate and Perfect Now by patriciajj 1 year 8 weeks* ago* This feels like a quiet: This feels like a quiet surrender to the present—an acceptance of stillness, of solitude, of the ambiguous space between despair and peace. The imagery is striking, sculpting a world where even movement is frozen, where mist becomes memory and silence carries a weight of its own. There's something deeply reflective about this—acknowledging the bleakness yet refusing to reject it, instead finding meaning in its eerie beauty. The final lines hold the most power. "I'll take Now" can be seen as statement of choice, of willingness, of recognising that the present—however stark, however imperfect—is all there is. In that acceptance, there is a kind of freedom. Even in stillness, even in quiet desolation, there is room for thought, for existence, for the smallest fragments of hope. Should the reader be feeling the pull of solitude, the weight of reflection, we can know that we are not alone in it. And maybe, like the poem suggests, there is something to be found in simply being— without needing to force an answer, without needing to define where we are. Sometimes, it is enough to simply exist. We are here, and that is what matters. [ go to comment ]
