Description Who thought, little bloom,
That you’d have the strength
To call back home
When the breadcrumbs ran out.

Who’d have thought, little love,
That you’d have the strength,
To walk all this way
Before first light.

yes happy better than sad.. I've never heard someone call another affectionately as a bloom... I was thinking of a bird. Cause I think breadcrumbs and I think a little birdy pecking at them.. maybe it's a bird and your love.. hmm.. That is what I love about abstract poems.. so limitless.

you did a fine job orangetot.. and yes, i can tell this is one of your happier poems.. which i like.. i read it as being full of hope.. regained hope i should say, for the way the little bloom and little love are returning, full of renewed strength, there must have been a point when all hope seemed to be at a loss.. as with every one of your poems, the only thing that saddens me is that i don't know you well enough as to know what life situation brought on the words at any given time.. but this poem makes me smile for you, for i can see you smiling as you write this, as you wrote this.. as you thought of the words as they came into your head.. it connects me.. and that is powerful.. later days

Seems sarcastic and ironic - love that effect of 'little love.' Something I tend to do in an almost patronising kind of way lol. But then saying that, there is a sweetness pertaining to the words in an almost matriarchal type of way. Short sweet and indeed elegant. Well done

Like your other poetry, it's short, it's simple, and it's elegant.

I like it

from the comments above i would assume this poem is a "happy poem"
when i read it i don't get that from it. not sure why. maybe my interpretation is ddiffrent because i was comparing your poem to the situations in my life.
its still a great poem!

the wonder of abstract poetry, it means so much because you can argue appliance to any situation. however, yes, in my mind it's a 'happy' poem
