I wasn't sure what KINTSUGI was so I looked it up, actually I have heard of the concept but I did not know that was the word. A good analogy to use in your poem
Thanks so much for the kind words, Jenny! Yeah, it's set in the American south, where states are trying to ban abortions and make it a crime to travel to another state to get one. This activity has been a lot of fun.
I love this Version of "She's leaving Home" - When I was a kid my Mum used to play the Sgt Pepper album and I loved this one, I like the way you have set it in America (Greyhound?) To make it a bit different. It tells a story and flows well. You have written some great poems for this competition!
Well, I know a herbal remedy or two...or some physical activity
that might do, might do.
Hugs and chin up.
We of the great order of wokeness will win in the end.
Just ait, around the bend,
even those Repubs bubs will see
throught the orange hate and glee
I barely recognize myself
in pictures these days.
The playful past;
boyish charm meets schoolgirl sparkle.
To say we had our fun would be untrue,
for we're still in the present tense
of time. Ups and downs,
we've known and overcome them.
Our stories are legendary.
But every now and then,
when I lose my hope or way,
you don't go away. You're
my kintsugi, filling between
my broken pieces a golden
shine not even time can tarnish.
Keeping me together in your
own unique technique.
I know with anything we go through,
it's all because of you. This,
I know is true. I love you.
