Ancient Plates Poem by Danny Draper

Subtle double edged meaning, writing which on one way has me considering the man made antiques, the other man created (I guess) suppose distruction. One small, fragile. Almost insignificance apart from personal attachment the other a worrying threat to remind us how insignificant and helpless we are. Great piece Danny. Ty for sharing. Karen

How true! limitless capacity To care for our siblings May rekindle harmony I would add dear friend that our sibilings could be every living thing on Earth. Maybe those plates too, why not? You shared another great poem, thank you!

i could use a little help from the poet to explain the meaning(s) here. i appreciate, at least, the punctuation to separate the sentences. without understanding it i really can't appreciate it much, but, as always, thanks for sharing.

A lot of meaning for 14 lines. Great stuff

That's really sensitively written with hope built into it too, great poem

Love and hope remain when materials possessions crumble.
