This is a lovely poem with rich descriptions throughout. You put many vivid images in my mind as I read. Just like people listening to a sermon at church, we all get something personal out of it that is unique just to us.

The tone and flow are good. I like the breaks inserted that gives the reader a moment to digest. There are many ways to interpret leaving much open for the reader to decipher. Nicely done.

This abab philosophical poem seems to be about life and death. It seems to remind us to live life because it is fleeting. No matter how solid and strong it seems, you have to notice that their is fog around it.

Keep writing

Joan

And some, less lucky, feel each joint corroding, each faculty dulling, and see the reaper coming afar, and know that they are as mortal as flat roadkill. Looks kinda like an abab iambic pentameter. Exellent.

This is a poignantly written poem with great rhythm and flow. A clever illusion on life how you take the reader down one road just to find out it was a complete different road. Thanks for sharing God bless

Each layer cut is foul and spent. Very good stanza. Strong worded. I find no fault. All seems to flow well. No mistakes noticed. Thank you for sharing your write, poet.

In my opinion, a commanding write, expressively presented in easy rhyme and exacting rhythm - the message is defined and elegantly referenced euologically...

A very well-written poem about who we are and what is really important to us. We all have different dreams and preverances and each one is perfectly cut out for us and our specific needs and dreams.
