Joseph P. DiMino Poet Free verse

Narcissus

Let those failed lights
keep their starry darks,
no hidden treasures have
they – 
           gems who hoard
their sparks, as bushel
a-cap heaven’s dearest
light,

blessed with angel appearance 
and nature 

now in free mirror fall

kingdom sovereign pool of self 

worships self-love, that’s all --

Gershon Wolf March 24, 2025 at 8:25 PM I like that line 'free mirror fall.' Kudos. Gershon Joseph P. DiMino March 25, 2025 at 6:29 PM Yep. No good to get hung up on images, especially self. Destined to fall. Thank you, Gershon.

Joe Maverick March 23, 2025 at 9:50 AM Its a blackout indeed in some areas Joe Dimino.' Joseph P. DiMino March 23, 2025 at 12:43 PM Hi Joe; appreciate the read and comment. Strange, often what I think is my better poetry, gets fewer comments. Go figure? Maybe I just don't know good poetry. I notice that with other poets I follow...often what I think is great poetry, only gets a few comments.
