To everyone who read, commented or rated this poem, a big " thank you"
A wonderful poem beautifully crafted and well executed. On to my Poem List.
A poem of great depth. A unique write and theme that only a few minds can weave. Yes, there are some of us that cannot co exist with themselves. Those that cannot feel the wonders of existence. And what is life when we despise the very foundation of existence? A life that has no meaning at all tantamounts to death.
Dear Kostas, I am delighted to see your poem as the honoured poem of the day. Heartiest Congratulations! You deserve this and much more. Absolutely on dot. Contentment is the key to happiness. Truly, words of wisdom! A wonderful poem dear Poet........10
Dear Kostas, you want to accept things as they are, as we know them, changes derange and are far from reality.. Just live your life in peace! Accept what is and cannot be changed. Right? There is a prayer that says, Please, Lord, help me accept what I cannot change" . It takes a great amount of strength to do it but in many cases it is the only way to have some peace. Great and very deep work, with an amazing exclusivity of form. Very original! Welcomed, poem of the day!
Born to be! ! ! Let me live; Facing the odds of life. Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
A wonderfully written poem Kostas, I could not have put it better than poetess Bharati Nayak, congratulations my friend!
Brilliantly expressed! Many congratulations for this insightful piece of work being selected as Poem of the Day!
In order to crystallize beautiful artifacts in words, we have to be aware of beauty's obverse both in ourselves and in the world. As this poem demonstrates, such awareness can be painful at times. Your honesty in facing yourself is admirable. Congrats on being chosen for POD.
When these beautiful works can not be done, it must be a state of mourning. It is a lamentation and frustration for one's inability to do the things he is supposed to do. Congratulations Kostas Lagos for your poem being chosen as the Poem of the Day!

How ironic to celebrate mourning! And only you could've pulled it off, dear father! My heartiest congratulations to you, Kostas for receiving the honour of Poem Of The Day. You truly deserve it!
Congratulations Kostas! Your catchy poetry contains mixtures of irony, nostalgia, humour and philosophical truths. Happy PH has chosen you for this honour.
Rather remarkable-- I find myself wishing I had written more than one of your poems--my highest compliment
