This sounded like a very personal poetic piece. Creatively written, but not clear. I'd love more details. Enjoyable to read. Nice work. Have a great week ahead. Hearts & hugs :)

Very many thanks for your review, Alicia. I appreciate your time and kind words. The poem was meant to be about a father being over-protective and having difficulty in letting go of his daughter. All good wishes, Tony

I liked this. You created a great sense of the aspirations we have, that seem to be always a step or two beyond us, and the imperfect self we live each day. We can't seem to keep hold of those aspirations. We are left with the imperfect self. estory

Comment from R. Hiland
I like this. Just enough words. Just enough tongue in cheek. You are much more willing to take risks than I am. I would probably beat this idea to death with adjectives--if I ever came up with the idea in the first place. As usual, good job, sir.

It sounds like this man was overprotective and didn't let his love be herself. That is why shy left. The artwork is cute and fitting.
Keep writng and stay healthy.

Comment from Mastery
Good job and so original Tony. I liked this in particular:
"saving her from herself,
from the mistakes I'd made
and the terrible consequences
of living."
Take care and be safe my friend. : ) Bob

Comment from Elizabeth Emerald
Good alliteration in PPP--I like the imagery of pen inking in details. I'm very literal-minded and have a hard time with metaphor; are you talking about a woman or a poem? Cheers. LIZ

Comment from Elon Vaughn
This piece is both lighthearted and deep, a difficult combination. I also think there is a sadness about it, which makes me keep reading and rereading it. Maybe the sadness is impossible for the princess to overcome.

Comment from Margaret Bednar
The meaning isn't clear but I interpret as a parent protecting a child until one day they (children) do what they do and use their "wings" to fly and make their own mistakes anyway...
