1. Love this, Balroop. How beautiful you have weaved your words to match the photo. This:
   “No agony could ever efface
   The love that levees our contours” Wow!!

2. Thank you Lisa, this image really drew blank when I saw it. I have another poem in one of my books that goes so well with this picture but I told myself, I must let my muse conjure something. I had to push her hard and here it is! 🙂

3. Balroop, Your muse did conjure powerful words. The concept of time, “secrets” “crevices” “light and darkness merged here.” I realize poetry can have different interpretations, yet, a question? I see the “crimson rims” in the photo (likely rust) and I also think about “crimson rims” as our eyes after we have been weeping. Is this your message? Beautiful and thought-provoking.💕

   1. Thank you for trying to get into the words and what do they symbolize Erica, you seem to be a poetry lover! Crevices and crimson rims refer to heart that hides real feelings but are understood by a person who knows you well, that’s why words don’t seem to matter. Light and darkness also are used as symbol of ups and downs of life that we could face better if we value relationships. 😊
