The Attic

Comment from Aussie
It's good to see you writing. So many treasures are stowed away in attics and one day when the owner dies and family cleans up, surprisingly, gold is found hidden away for years. I don't know if you watch The Antique Roadshow BBC on TV but so many people bring amazing things for the experts to value. Some find real treasure like a ring worth $30,000! Love, K. xx

Comment from GWHARGIS
This was a poem rich in detail and alluded to a story without telling the story. Attics hold clues to our past and sometimes others past as well. There are memories in every corner and behind every cobweb. Beautifully written. Gretchen

Comment from lyenochka
Wow! I loved your selection of words - so much of past life does end up as a "misplaced dream." I really liked the "vague sepia memories." This really captured that sensation of change of past experience transforming into the intangible dream-like memory.
I would suggest changing it to "dreams" otherwise, grammatically, we'd say "a misplaced dream".

Comment from Nicki.B
This is the first time I've read a Kimo poem, I'm learning so much from this platform! I really like this one, every house has one of these I would think an attic or cupboard or whatever the case maybe, if you dare rummage there you never know what you might find! I just wanted ask, would the last word dream be plural the same as memories? Just a thought!

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
Kimo poem, the Israeli Haiku, how lovely, Santha! I won't pretent to know anything about either forms, but I do like to read them. This is sweet, if I had an attic like that in the picture I'd be up there all day, remembering. I enjoyed reading this one, it was lovely. Well done, my friend :) Sandra xxx

Comment from CrystieCookie999
What an intriguing poetic form. I did not know there was an Israeli haiku, so to speak. I like the idea of how the attic has an undefined feeling with the words 'vague' and 'misplaced' and 'fragments.' It seems like the past is less particular than the present.
