A hippie who never wore a colourful bandana

I see what you mean. Is sweet, sad and brilliant.
It could work for me. But in my case I had green punky hair.

my sweet Luca, thank you.
Haha you're still hippie at heart. don'teverchange.

Uma, i don't deserve your praise surely. I wouldn't say he's an extremist but a rather passive hippie as he sits at the corner of the coffee shop rather than go out and fight for his beliefs. I appreciate your interpretation nevertheless. It reminds us that everyone's different and we should encourage this diversity.

thanks for stopping by dear Uma
thrilled to have received such a comment from you.

yes, you grasped the basic concept of the poem. Thank you my dear Jack for taking the time to read and leave a comment!

Really simple and really good xoxo

Thank you Gigi!

I like your word placement here "world peace" which may have a parallel obejective to the central character in your poem who is also not fighting but silent. So the appeal for peace is truly apparent. Brilliant knock Ophie!!!

thank you dear Anando!

To me, this is a remarkable poem just the way it is.  You don't need practice in writing this type of poem.  You have a natural gift for it.  I like this poem even better than some of your longer ones, which I like, too, but some of the longer ones do not have the consistency, insight, flow and metaphor this shorter one does.  Thank you for this gift to me, my friend.
