I just popped in to read your POM nominated poem, and to say congratulations. You are a popular and well-loved poet on site. I can't claim to understand free verse, but I'd say you do it with classy style. Best wishes in the voting booth. I'm sure you'll do well.

I returned at the right time.
Some of these lines here are magnificent, my brother. How glad I am to see your name again, and I hail the committee for finding you with this, for if one takes the time to unlock your cryptic, no punctuation, style, then one swoons, for it is tragic, beautiful, imagery full and nostalgic all in one breath.
Keep striving, my friend, your place within this line up tells authors, what a good writer you are, it does not need to tell me for I have know long.
Six stars for sure.
My best wishes, Michael.

A wonderful and well constructed free verse poem. The words flow freely down the page and create a picture in the readers' mind. Thanks for sharing and warmest regards, Marijke :o)

"Eye Piece"
"Eye Piece breathes Life back into the Soul of one so lost...
"As if a Wave...
"Rises aimlessly at sea...
"The palms sway and the breeze breathes the very, last, breath, into the Soul of Mankinnd?"
"Perhaps, if we all could be the Palms...
"And, Our Sorrowed Lives the Breeze...

You are the absolute prince of the economic, and enigmatic image. I won't even attempt to go line for line. You know how I feel about your extraordinary quill. Your ranking is some sort of cosmic joke.
"something sad draws shade from sunshine." Gorgeous line.
love ya - DJ

Comment from Joan E.
Forgive my late response--I've been desperately trying to catch up since my travels. I especially liked your "life preserver" metaphor and "twin sibling" reference, plus the repeat of the inverted first stanza. Evocative and a half! Big hugs- Joan

Joan...if you leave me now...you'll take away my only trusted Friend-Fan.....not to mention the biggest part of me. I borrowed most of that from Chicago. As you know I was orphaned there as a child...Mom said she was getting some "smokes" and then the story started....crying. Please dont go!...-smile- love to you...michael

Thank you for holding me in such high regard. I'm not planning to leave--I just get behind sometimes. Your "trusted Friend-Fan--it takes one to know one! Joan

Comment from dragonpoet
This sounds like a crisis of faith that is averted just to find another one. It sounds too circular, no hope. Or it can be a fight with clinical depression.
Sinks me ocean does not seem correct. Seems words are missing to claify meaning. Like, in an ocean.
Keep writing

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A well-written poem. The eyes is the window to the soul. A smile around the mouth sometimes can't hide the shadows and pain visible in the eyes.
