Absolutely lovely, Brooke. What a creative day you've spent! I particularly appreciated 'Mighty oak and minute seed' and the rhyming of stellar orion with earthly dandelion. AND, you point out that this is all created. Peter

This is so true. This is something we all need to consider our planet is our universe and if we don't take care of it we may just face a lot of problems.

The beauty of Creation lies
in ladybugs and spacious skies.
Look up to see it in Orion,
or stoop to pick one dandelion.

You are a true poet, aren't you.

Any style, any form ... no matter what you give us, it is said to perfection.

Marion.

The best secret in the world is nature. I doubt we will ever know her entirely. As a race we are still learning, and it will be many centuries before we even start to get close. Inspirational foundation of a write Brooke, Bravo - James.

I like the contrasts and differences that all speak to the same theme of the magnificence of creation. The picture and colors you've chosen accent the words you've used. I enjoyed this very much. Good writing.

You're thinking a lot about oak trees lately. This is another beautiful poem, and you always speak of Creation or the Person behind it all. Thank you for continually inspiring us to look at the things around us, and not just take it all for granted. Best Blessings Brooke! Marjie

Another lovely rispetto, of which you are the undisputed queen.
Am I right in thinking this resembles a slightly longer poem you posted not so long ago, with the same contrast between the small and the spectacular? If so, the message has lost none of its potency in the retelling. And that last rhyme is just inspired!
Love it, Brooke.
Yours, Sally

You do create such grand visuals with your poems. I think you must be a terribly observant person because you write about the smallest creatures of creation to the mighty universe. Well done, Brooke. Nice picture that rounds off your work. luv jada

Very nicely done! I was just thinking the other day as I was mowing my field which is filled with dandelions how petty they really are. If only they didn't take everything over!

    Is that a Freudian slip, typing that they are petty? LOL Thanks, Michael :-) Brooke
