Empty Nest Comments

Exactly expressed my feelings.

Nested sequences of life old, young and the cycle continues....Life is not permanent though the nest is unless is destroyed.Nests get transferred or tresspassed or tessellated or masqueraded but every nest has some stories behind to tell..A very experienced hand in contemporary poetry

Nest, once glamorous, full of life becomes lifeless and dumb.What a tragedy! Why should the children discard their parents when once they become independent.All children should read this poem and make home free from silence and spread the blanket of happiness and gay everywhere.

very nicely written intricate account with dual meaning perhaps with respect to the writers own life experience

What an excellent and well crafted write! Very poignant and thought provoking poem! 10+++ Keep it up! You got what it takes to inspire the whole world, talent! Thanks for sharing! ...

Why does the nest get empty? Why do have to become old Why tell me why! Sad but significant. It is the rugged reality of living! Well done my friend.10/10

I like the end :) It was catchy.

slice of life with great remembrance!

Good poem, Santosh. Poetic reminder to all of us to keep honouring our beloved parents. Let's all give a call to our mother or father at this moment. Well done.

nice to read, well penned the circle of life, great work, well done, thanks for sharing

A beautiful depiction of the cycle of life of our feathered friend. Enjoy the visit with them and really enjoyed the flow of the poem. If time permits maybe you could read my 'The Empty Nest'. I used the squirrel for my write. I give you a ten Santosh and keep up the good work.

Very beautiful imagery, you depict the circle of life so vividly. I really enjoy this poem. Nice written 10

I liked the way you depicted the whole situation. The poem is extremely rich in imagery. Nice write.

Very Nice Imagery Santosh! I enjoyed reading this very much!

symbolical. all old parents experience it.10, shan

interestingly penned/lovely to read

It's fascinating, because by the conclusion, I had imagined the truly empty nests that sit starkly framed against the sky in the leafless trees over winter. Yet your final stanza indicated the hard-working parent had not strength to leave the nest and lived in it alone? It is an incongruous picture since It never seems to be the case in the natural world, and yet seems fitting for its application to people when they speak of 'the empty nest syndrome.' You excellently depicted the parent's love and delights and diligence, and then desolation. It is sad, but I enjoyed how well you presented it and the lovely scenes in the earlier portion with the vitality. It's a very sobering reminder...thanks.

Happy New year to you. a very nice, deep and a thought provoking poignant poem. we all have to go through these cycles and phases of life. life is like that, a beautiful poem. pl see my poems of 2011 too. i just posted them last night. take care

symbolic cycle of life, nice interpretation. I felt sad. Hope the nest won't be empty in time.

Now aged is will No strength in wings Empty is nest Silence all around. Very nice melachonly poem. Even though sad somehow gathers strength in silence for a new flight.
