Dinosaur

 

 

at my fossilized age

I am fairly certain

my understanding

of love died out

with the meteor that hit

 

the one that procured my heart's

extinction.

[Weeping willow]

Few words, but expresses so much, with age leaving a hollow person in the stone. Nicely spoken ;-]

I like this write, makes one wonder. --- But then again, I wonder, does it take something that powerful?

My dear Jacob, trust me, your metaphors will still be inspiring poets at the Cafe for a long, long, long, long time. Yeah!!!!

[jacob erin-cilberto]

and I have no idea why I think in metaphor...I don't know where they come from....seriously.

Perhaps it's what good writer's do! ; )

[Vertigo Cat1111]

I was impressed by just how powerful this write was- it really hit you in the heart and the shortness of the poem added to some of the intensity. I love the formatting too, highlighting every strong word you used. There was a reminsicent and nostalgic ache to this too that spoke of so much memories. Thank you for sharing such a strong memorable piece. This is one of those poems that you just want up on a wall.

[Ada]

Powerful short write..its amazing how writers can do big things with fairly small words when we'll organized. Moving metaphor.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

Sometimes emotional meteors can be as devastating as the physical variety. Extinction is such a downer.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

yes, it is, John...thank you,
