Comment from Dorothy Farrell
Hello Janet, this is a lovely, well written poem with good rhyme in abcb form and rhythm maintained throughout. The subject, a rural idyll, is one of my favourite subjects. You have given an idyllic example in this lovely work. Nice to see you on FS - I rarely am on the site at the moment - busy with painting and pushed for time. But I like to pop in and keep in touch. Warm regards Dorothy xx

What a beautiful and peaceful morning meditation. Thank you for sharing it as we all need that peaceful perspective and your attitude of gratitude. If only everyone could start out with such a morning and recognize each day as a gift from God.

Comment from Patty Palmer
So true that joy comes in the morning. When I was a kid and I'd be worried about something my mother used to tell me that Psalm, She also used to tell me that this too shall pass. Your poem is beautiful with very descriptive wording to help one see what you are seeing. The picture you chose enhances the poem greatly.

Comment from mermaids
Joy does come in the morning. Love the verse about the eagle, it shows the beauty of nature and the healing we feel when we observe the beauty of nature. Excellent use of words and a smooth flow of lines. Your theme is positive and reminds the reader to begin each day anew.

Comment from Susan Louise Gabriel
What a lovely poem about nature! You gave me the sensation of "being there" and feeling the sun. I agree with you - every morning is a gift from God to savor.
Well done!

Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
I agree. With each new day, there is another chance to experience God's beauty and renewal from the night before. Your image is beautiful. Your words flow smoothly with good rhymes and great imagery. I read good use of s, g, e, & w alliteration and internal rhyme of yellow/mellow and personification of Sol (sun). Your message is clear.
Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan

Comment from Tina Crute
This is so vivid a poem for the mind. You describe with a grateful heart what you are seeing and showing us the beauty of the day. Nature really has grandeur!Your last stanza wraps it all together nicely, almost a thank you note to God. I love that Bible verse, as it reminds me we still have so much to be thankful for, after the weeping.
