Empty Chairs Comments

Interesting format but, yes, very restful and nostalgic. Read mine - Forgotten Old Cabin - Adeline

Thanks for sharing, dear Howard Johnson. A poem of a gentle loneliness, a descent attitude, of enjoying the small and precious things and facts of life (it talks with my poem THE WINDOW) . Well structured, well done. I give it 9++. Joseph Josephides Member of the International Society of Poets (ISP) Int.Lib.Poetry awarded

God loves patient people. And He let me read this beautiful poem of yours after went through those brain-killing tests! Your poem makes my day beautiful! Thanks for offering

your creativity shows even if u hide it.

ur poem was very descriptive but i couldnt understand half of it

Very serene. Descriptions are good. Creativity bursts from all angles of this poem, there was a bit of a digression towards the end but that always helps the structure and the element of surprise.

jeesh, do you really need another comment! wow. very simple, good description with the 'bleeding rust' and such. serene.

I'm not sure what it's about (pardon me and my slowness) but I love your poem when I read it I get a sense of memories and such beautiful description. It's like slowly zooming out from the tree leaves to the entire good transition Thank you for sharing you poem with me

Beautiful imagery here Howard. Really enjoyed. Your biog resonates too.. HG: -) xx

The tree, ever budding Variety of ways of sensing. From Birth, till end Becomes a cause for a blend. An endless pursuit To one, who has his thirst. Ever offering cocktail Even at the hour of sole. All it needs to bear Is that empty chair. Its all about that love Enjoyed, Thank you.

i could actually picture what you were saying. well done.
