6 Stars! I've only given out 2 others I think maybe 1, but I rarely come across writing that moves me so incredibly much. We have a great deal in common- after reading your bio. Your picture was beautiful. The one used with the poem and the one your poem created! So incredibly impressed! Brightest Blessings to you! (((and peaceful calm))

    Hi Wilder,
    Thank you for the wonderful six star review. I am truly honored that you enjoyed my poem so much. I love nature and I love exploring it. My heart is in every word written. The photo was one of my own. The beautiful Great Blue Heron. Thank you for all your wonderful compliments.
    Bless You,
    Helvi :o)

    More than welcome- Nature inspires me too- I teach karate- and one of the animals that is important to our style is the Crane- So that got me too- it was really neat to see that picture and relate it to the poem with it being one of our animals :)
    Cool Beans!

That was beautiful. What a wonderful way of describing the need to write, that makes it seem like such an easy happy thing, is it that way for you? I'm asking seriously. I thought we were all sort of driven and tortured, but you make it sound like an easy sweet part of nature, maybe it is, I'll rethink my position on it from now on.

    Hi, I live with anxiety and depression and have no desire to be miserable. :o) There is a lot of joy in spreading happiness, joy, tranquility and humor. I receive a lot of smiles from the reviews I get. I know I cheered someone up. Some peope like to write about misery, but I'm not one of them. Follow where your spirit leads. It will always set you on the right path. Remember, you have control of what you write... I write about what I love. ...Thanks for the beautiful review. Helvi :o)

Wow, this is truly a very appreciative poem! Appreciating nature is giving credit to our Creator. We have so much to appreciate in nature. Your poem shows how observant and appreciative you are to God's creations. They were created for us to enjoy. Very nice descriptive words, nice flow and an excellent write!

I love your way with words. The tapestry that you weave draws me in and I want so badly to just stay there, listening, looking, smelling, feeling, touching everything around me. This is what I want to go to bed thinking about. Thank you for your beautiful poem. God bless you.

Well it would appear your writer's block has been broken because this is truly lovely. Beautifully rhymed, metered, versed. Lovely imagery throughout. "A xylophone of icicles that ring in winds that swell" I loved it!

Hi Helvi

You are so right about inspiration, it is all around and all it takes is a certain kind of listening and seeing and even more, an appreciation of little things, to gain from it. I loved the flow of your words, the imagery devine and rhyme. Very well done!
