Dear deepwater,

I like your message. I do not like the fifth line,"Or bend to the ever moving passage of age." Age and time cannot be stopped. That is probqably why so many people regret what could have been, or regret how they treated people in the past. I like it other than that. Great job! pugrpoems.

Hi deepwater,
Maybe you should change your name to deepthinker? :-) (just kidding). I really enjoyed this one too. You are touching on so many excellent topics in your book. This fits perfectly into your fine collection. Well done.
Cheers, W ^-^

I love the old pictures that accompany your poems. They really add an extra flavor to them. I think you pose great questions, especially in the second line of the poem.

There is some very deep thought in this, my friend...
(would he stand as a stone on priciples, or bend to the ever moving passage of age)(or live with the premise of whatever happens, he will continue his journey)
Love the last line.... Bryan

I definitely like your free verse style best. This conflict you have described is something any thinking person who attempts to live consciously can relate to. How do I respond to the judgments of one who is close to me? How do they shape me or help me shape myself? Will my convictions be eroded or strengthened?
Well done.

It is a never ending battle within your soul... "Or live under the premise of whatever happens he will continue his journey with the conflict of never finding peace" Life has so many twist and turns... which is the right road. Kudos Gary... cheers, Jack

I liked the overall theme and what this represents. The analogy if "being judged by our partner," perhaps, and gives us pause for deep thought.

I was wishing to have more of differing examples of relationships, that bolster your theme.

It also makes me think if the strength of a Willow that bends but has deep roots; or the strength of leather that like an old shoe or glove that fits better with age.

Thanks for your authenticate, enjoyable voice.

I thoroughly enjoyed your poem. The abstract imagery of emotions shone. I have always been in awe of the internal conflicts that must envelope a soldier's soul for his entire life. Thank you for allowing the readers inside for a few well- communicated moments.
