Delightful read really uplifting. I liked the flow on from the end of one verse to the next. Your choice of picture created a perfect setting for the reader to focus on

To the author of "Home at Last", Your country must be beautiful. I too, found pleasure and peace by walking in the woods on my property many days and nights ago. This is a lovely poem. Good luck in the contest. Carole

This is a beautifully rhymed poem describing the finding of the inner home. The forest has always felt like a cathedral to me. In nature and it quiet reverence, we can see so deeply into ourselves.

On a woods walk, there is always that arrival at a certain close of trees that speaks to you as cathedral. I was with you on your journey.

You can then take a walk about in the bush. I liked this piece of poetic art. It was upbeat and flowed well in its thoughts and phrases. The picture worked in well with the thoughts and I found nothing to suggest for it... John

Wow, what a great poem, thank you. I especially like the end of it, very metaphorical. I guess we all are longing to come home at some point in our lives. Great photo to go with the poem too.

This is a very well written poem following, absolutely, the rules for this kind of verse, together with a good story. Good picture - which actually made me feel dizzy when I looked at it. Redwoods? Good luck in the Contest with this fine verse. Regards Dorothy
