How true and aptly described as "when silence says everything". This flows beautifully with the surroundings allowing serenity, hopefully without intrusion of past negativity. Excellent. LadyMary

Resurrected memories shadow dance, very nice! I liked your offering a lot friend, describing the despair of losing ones mind and memories, my wife lost her grandfather a couple of years ago and I witnessed hid rapid decline, very sad indeed. Great poem!

Mrs KT, I really enjoyed reading "Homecoming". It is very well thought out, choice of excellent words to create a vivid imagery with a strong descriptive scheme leading to a smooth read. My interpretation is that of the one coming home suffers from dementia/Alz. Such a sad thing. Well done. kay

Hello, Mrs. KT-

This poem is deep on so many levels. I have read and reread it. I enjoyed its rhythm. The message, from how I read it, was of a relationship, long nurtured, finally matured. Please tell me if I am correct, or not.

I feel silly, but the word wending- is it a real word? I will go look it up. I had to wonder if you meant 'winding'.

Beautiful poem.

Take care!
Ellie

I was just thinking about you today!! How wonderful to read your words again. It's been ages since we agonized together over our first triolets!! I've written several since then, and thought of you every time!! This is a lovely, sad, poignant piece about heartbreak. Lovely work.

Excellent verse! Your word choice and imagery are terrific. You paint a mind picture that even I can see. I like capitals, but then this is free verse, itsn't it? Great job. Thanks for sharing!
