Passing By Comments

we all need the comfort that comes from love's embrace....lovely lines

beautiful tribute, filled with sadness and great amiration for the one who passed. I am sure she was a great lady.

So true to life..I like how the words seamlessly flow in your poems.

another beautiful write from you sir............we do not realize the value of some thing untill we have lost it and then we morn............how well u have penned the thoughts.........

What a beautiful poem this is, Greenwolfe, and it expresses one of the saddest of truths....that we rarely show our deep love for someone until they are gone. Your words are carefully and very well chosen in this poem, written with just enough restraint to avoid the trap of becoming maudlin like so many sad poems do. In that respct, it makes this an exceptional poem and I am proud to say I have read it, liked it, and enjoyed it. Carl.

This one makes you think, why do we hold back until it's too late? Thank you for this poem.

The Harsh truth... Captures the feelings of the reader

Yes, it is strange how we bottle up our love and set it free when someone has passed. Great poem.

A very sincere poem with a great amount of deep feeling, I can see why it is so popular draws the eye, thanks Chris

A very beautiful sad poem. The intensity of the feelings can be touched through your words, and the rhythm, slow as a procession adds to the meaning of this poem. Very well written! 10+

Wolfey, Surprising poems... Which is read as a pray... 10... Tsira

depicts the stark reality of life and after life

Another perfect description of how life is and of those who let it pass them by... I hope many read this poem of yours and are humbled :)

After recently going through a personal loss, I can relate very well to this, and it is a sence of comforting when all is said and done, and you have delivered that emotion in this write, from within your soul........

Wakes are for the comfort of the living...I remember in San Fran when Aids patients used to have wakes before they died...it's not something that will catch on, but it reminds us as your poem so eloquently states, that we should tell those we love how much we love them before it's too late...thoughtful and beautiful...Coach

wow, gracefully written- truly stirs the heart

'We seldom show our feelings Till after life is through.' this is so very true...I love how you told this moment in time without overly contrived words, just beautiful honesty...nice work

Intense write sharing sentiments on one unacknowledged existence. It is a logical page from life’s predictable aloofness... I liked this work. 10 Rema
