Great job. Excellent imagery.

I liked this poem, it was nice how you managed to capture a moment and paint the pictutre so vividly. Great work

Ed, This a awesome write! So many lines stand out, this my fav:

Oh sweet flesh your changing so beguiles me,
As if mirrors are meant for our displeasure!
There is something pure about the process
That drives me to seek out old pictures.

The lines flow perfectly in this piece, painting a brilliant picture that provokes one to thoughts of life changes and death. No criticism here....perfect in every way. Bravo!

This made me cry. I don't know what your words did, but they got to me..
Sorry i can't comment in greater detail.
You're a great poet..
5/5

You have painted a very discrptive picture for the reader. This was a very enjoyable read. excellent!

Poetry is art. Many individuals spend years and years finding the balance between the expression of poetry and the meaning of it on a canvas. This however, shows that balance in which we all want. Its detailed descriptions has influently grasp the minds of many to the different layers of paint it shows. To me, everyone wants to paint that. But this is the masterpiece i havnt seen in a long time.

Gasping for air here.... wow. i love this.

I commented on this almost 4 yrs ago and yet as words fade and new poems abrupt, it appears that what was written before becomes lost in the cluttered book of emotions. Yet as this may be, it takes a poem of grandeur; a masterpiece that seizes the readers heart and imprint its wisdom onto our souls, that makes me wonder through the corridors and hallways of this site in order to find what I once was resonated by. And here it is, the crisp words staring back at me as it did before. As I read on, I am once more overcome by your brilliance. Thank you Ed.
