The Sun Melts The Snow (Tanka) Comments

I am there with you, bro, I am there

A fantastic image of vulnerability. Excellent verse, Kostas.

A highly enjoyable experience!

Pain and sadness of a broken heart find beautiful expression in this poem.

καθώς ο γιος λιώνει το χιόνι περιμένω άλλη μια μέρα κολύμβησης και ψάρεμα στη λίμνη

The imagery! Its painful to see... Thus it made this work expensive!

A five star rating from me. I like the comparison of barren earth to a broken heart with no more blood to shed.

I can feel the pain in this poem, pain of the earth and joined with the pain of human suffering

A poignant write full of human pain and longing.

'That has no more blood to shed.' Beautiful!

Superb piece....thank u, dear poet.

So simple, so effective..

Stunningly beautiful! So heart-wrenching! I empathize with your pain and sorrow, Kostas. This is truly a work of art from a man with true soul!

I cry for my broken heart that has no more blood to shed. The sun and the melting snow. short and sweet and meaningful my dear Father. tony

I cry for my broken heart that has no more blood to shed An appealing poem *****

The deep pain of a broken heart is portrayed quite vividly with your comparison to the bleakness and lifelessness of autumn. Well done!

A haunting and somber work, one thinks of snow melting as a time to see the seeds of spring, but here there is just the barrenness of a dead earth, a lonely heart feels the lonely planet desolate of life. I wish you well, the pain seeps through your words and come alive here, I felt the blood become dust, but it is electric. Top Marks!

I cry for my broken heart that has no more blood to shed simple and noble are your words dear Rev. Father. tony

too cryptic for me. no, NOT " having to do with a burial chamber" ! bri :)
