I enjoyed your rhymed quatrains about the poetic process. I admired your "wells," "soil" and "rivers" and the imagery including in the final stanza. Your presentation is quite striking and synergistic with the focus on "revelation." Cheers- Joan

I love how you depict the many waters in this. Last night I went to a Bible study on Revelation. The word actually means to lift the veil -- uncovering. Perhaps with that in mind you can work it in for the final line.

Hey sweetness
I enjoyed this poem of yours. It is a deep mother. I thought about that last stanza and came up with this: "flowing within oneness of thought' You continue to amaze me with your immense talent

Hi Jj,

This is a fabulous poem and the last line works for me. Your rhyme and phrasing are impeccable and I love the theme. You have good alliteration and a gentle flow. Well done....blessings, chey

This is a deep look into each poets uniquely different approach, and even the personal motives that drives his work. It is very melodic and full of imagery. Thought provoking.

Last line: Flows with oneness of thought.

Good write VP but I beg to differ with you. I don't want to write with oneness of thought. I want to write individualized poetry. I may have read you totally wrong but your write says so.

Jewell,
Your poem is beautifully written. Your words paint grand imagery in the readers head. Your posey about writing poetry is meaningful and poignant , yet thought pondering. Your rhyme and meter are both great while you use excellent metaphor and very good alliteration. I especally enjoyed your lines: "We glide in rivers of comfort or dive to find treasures held deep, Seeking of knowledge comes easy; Epiphany, victor's beseech." I like your similie: 'treasures buried within.'  I like your similie:  'treasures buried within.' I love you poem, my friend. I'd recommend your beautiful poem to others to review. I was delighted to have read or reviewed your poetic jewel. Please have a fabulous day...Melissa.

HI Jewel,

This is stellar and I enjoyed reading it very much this afternoon. My goodness, it took me on a mind trip with your well chosen and scribed words. This is one of your best, for sure.

You asked for suggestions for the last line. May I offer suggestions for the last two?

It's [within]in you and me, it's in others
[and freely flows with] oneness of thought

A good read this afternoon!
Ray

I thought you did a great job with this. Since you didn't like the last line, I thought you could use flowing instead of to flow. Just suggestion.
