Comment from Jean Lutz
Such a blessing poured out in words. I feel this is prophetic. Recently I started attending a different church. It is only a mile from my home. Currently I am taking a class -- The Disciple's Path -- taught by the pastor, Jack O'Dell. Would you belive the name of the church is The Well? www.thewellumc.com

Good Evening, Poet
This is a wonderfully written free verse poem.
The opening and closing lines, or as I refer to
duplicated lines, the bookends, is a terrific way
to start and end the poem.
The read of the poem is smooth, the words are
sublime and caused me to pause and think.
yeah, you've done really well with this.
Thanks for sharing

Hello Ray,
Love to know what this caused you to "think". Do tell.
Thank you for stopping in!

It made me think about the times when I don't write, when I've allowed life to get in the way and how i feel out of sorts. And then, when I do take up the pen again, how I seem to thrive, feel better and thirst for more poetry, more knowledge and more sharing of that which is inside of me.

Ray, I'm SO HAPPY you shared that!
Exactly what I was going for!

I wish I had six stars, as they'd easily be yours. This poem is a stunning achievement. You have a way of painting reality with rich descriptions and the selected art-work gives much creativity to your words.
The narration is captivating, clever, original, motivational and very inspiring. You beautifully summed up love within a kaleidoscope of varying emotions in a nutshell.
To wait patiently and to trust in God when everything looks dark, is the lesson that we all need to learn. Heaven will not fail us in our day of adversity, for nothing is apparently more helpless, yet really more invincible, than the soul that feels its nothingness, and relies wholly on God.

Well, if he's blind to it, how can he be perfect with such a flawed sense of awareness? (Just had to throw that out there. LOL) This was a marvelous piece, of course. You give readers a whirlwind of ways this person is basically "the bomb" to you, and I enjoyed it. :)

Perfect in my eyes, Mr. Baldwin.
This is written for the writer, the poet, such as yourself to challenge you to share all that rest within and let it seep to the page, openly and unabashed.
This isn't about romance or someone being "the bomb". Too bad you didn't catch that.

...p.s. I REALLY appreciate your review and your fanship!
I'm off to visit your portfolio!

Comment from Lobengula
That is quite beautiful. I just hope you're not looking for something half as good from this reviewer! "Please make the music of your life/so enthusiastic". Those lines are lovely, but then it's almost impossible to single out any particular part. The whole poem's such a treasure.

Comment from BLACKDYKE
Knowledge is a marvelous thing Visionary'
and we must get it from somewhere.
This is poetic beauty urging knowledge
to come forward and identify him/herself.
I would install punctuatiion here and there to clarify format and distance.
It takes a couple of reads to understand.
But who am I!!! Eric

Hi Eric
thanks for the review.
No punctuation on purpose. I've capitalized the beginning of each line.
Glad you popped in.

Perfectly done. Me pleasure.
Comment from cinamonsunrise
Exquisite piece.
"Like honey
to the tongue of my spirit
and gentle persuasion-
an appetizer for my soul
feed me an epiphany "
Those were my favorite lines and they end your work so nicely. They also tie into your title perfectly. Passionate free verse about the desire to obtain more knowledge...an epiphany...
I really enjoyed this one, cinamon

Hello Jewell, The strangest thing just happened. While you were reading mine I was filling up my soul with yours. This one speaks to me today in all the ways that make it an exceptional write. I believe we would make such grand friends in the real world because when you write I see beyond the exterior into the sublime. Grand work my friend. xoxo d

Some people stumble through life never realizing how important they could be to others--how much sweetness and goodness they could lend to others' lives. Your powerfully-worded poem vividly conveys the theme of how we can bless other's lives.
