Oh I like this poem Roy. My favorite stanza...
If I, a scribe, wrote words like gems
I'd capture light with silver stems.
if I could grant all dreams come true
then purest love in cups I'd brew.
I like that thought. Well done.xxx Nancy

Comment from rspoet
You may not be able to bring boundless joy
but you certainly brought a poem of joy
with words like gems and it all stems
from the heart that sings
perfectly rhymed in aabb pattern
with very good meter, the poem flows
like a dream riding a lightning shaft
Gorgeous photograph to match the poem
Very well done

Comment from Mystic Angel 7777
Roy - if you never write a sonnet it will not matter as you etch your words in hearts with simple grace and eloquence - no rules to follow only love. Structurally this is exquisite; conceptually it is a bot of heaven here on earth. Nicely done and I thank you very much for sharing it.

Comment from MissMerri
A most beautiful expression of praise and adoration for God's magnificence and power, Roy. I loved the wording here... the "if only I could" theme contrasts so beautifully with the things that God can do. I would remove the comma after "bring" in the last stanza, and stick it in between "know" and "my" in the next to last line... "but this I know, my God is love..." Just an idea for smoother flow, but not a big deal. Your poem is a wonderful expression of faith and love. I read it several times.

Comment from Taffspride
Beautifully written and a powerful message enclosed. We are only human and can only be thankful for all that 'He' does for us.
As always I read poetry aloud, and this flowed so well. I tried hard to find a stanza that meant more than another, but it was impossible, they all had a great impact.
Thank you for sharing.

Comment from giovannimariatommaso
What a wonderful commentary on what God & love can do for others as well as ourselves in the doing; of that which we can only dream. The poem reads well & the rhyming scheme is good, quite the picture too!

If I, a scribe, wrote words like gems
I'd capture light with silver stems.
if I could grant all dreams come true
then purest love in cups I'd brew.
I love every verse - oh, if only, Ray.
Such a beautiful poem, my friend.

I enjoyed your poem. The artwork is awesome. I like the ways you said about capturing 'things.' But in the end, you are right about God--only He can make those beautiful things.
Good job.
Thanks for sharing an uplifting poem with a great message.

Beautiful poem with words that truly capture the heart. Good word flow with perfect rhyming. A message of perfect love and caring, that only the master owns.

Your poem about what you would do if you were God,
; expending hope and love to all your children, is beautifully written end. Especially like how you give the key to finding them in Romans 15:13.
