The mighty oak I see outside It's roots are deep and long It will live a hundred years And bend when winds are strong What a beautiful metaphor for strength and endurance, to begin a poem upon lose and the difficulty of carrying on without the beloved, written with feelings emotions we can all identify with, with a last line ending like a haunting folk song. Loved the sentiments expressed within each stanza.
Hello Kelly, thank you. I know I haven't posted anything in quite a while but I am still about. Have been trying my hand at writing a few books. Just recently released two epic poems as books now at amazon
Very enjoyable poem, full of emotion that really shows through. Just one question: Didn't you mean that the memories STRETCH the nights so long? In any case, great poem and congrats on Poem of the Day!
Hello Kim, Thank you for your comment and yes, that is exactly what it means, Bill Simmons
things that don't kill outright only make you stronger. I hope one day you will emerge from this phase stronger and brighter.
Dancing in the night of sadness and loneliness yet shining like the sun in poetic gladness! Well done my friend! Congrats in being chosen for poem of the day!
this guy just held his heart out for all of us to read perhaps one of the finest pieces to come across
