what a wonderful poem you have. i really like your style of writing it really ispires me a lot thanks for sharing
This reminded me of that old song 'little boxes on a hillside' all filled with sensless artifact in a place we call home... very enjoyable read thanks for the invite Emu... regards Alf
An interesting impressionistic write...A packsack of keepsakes...a wonderful metaphorical poem, enjoyed it alot
Excellent.My own sentiments come from within.I hesitate to throw many articles, fully knowing their obsolence and depleting usefulness, only considering their emotional values.My museum comprises many postcards/inlands of my parents, many small articles of the children and some gifts from near and dear ones which apparently have lost their relevance.Very touching poem.
one persons garbage is another persons treasures. and with memories you can not measure. good write and very well put.
just like how our shelves of memory holds the old sweet moments...so is this collection of articles which brings back these memories to us..a different and lovely poem any one will relate to...10
An interesting title 'public-self-storage-space'. I susposed both man and woman use to have keepsakes or just keep things for the sake of keeping them. [for sentiment or because some things are difficult from which to part.] In these mordern time most things are disposable though. I enjoyed reading such a poem with such a fresh perpective on storing away self. Thanks for sharing...a 10 I* give this delightful poem.
wonderful impressionistic descriptive poem, nice list, lovely to read...10+++++
while reading it, as if i was on the garret, sorting out an old native stuff of several generations... very cosy and nice poem, good work
Well said Emu...a house is always a self-public-storing place...for a house too grows, over the years gets old, keeps within its memoirs and looks out for new hopes to add on...memoirs and hopes- some private some public...thanks...10
