Michael, It has been a long time since I reviewed your work, but I had to take a look at this poem. You used such great and beautiful wording and the imagery was really awesome. Great job my friend. Teri

This speaks the bittersweet rhythm of the process and law of Nature and God's rhyme of activities within God's world in God's note for infinite actions and ours living; I liked.

Oh, brilliant. I love the way you take the elements and then infuse direction in passing them through the ''you'' the entity, the personal. So gives it the depth...apart from beautiful adjectives and nouns, you stamp your trademark. This one easier on the narrative which gives it the charm such a poem deserves.

I HONESTLY...never tire of reading from you, I always know the write will be deep, and even if have to work at it, I see you.

''One knee finds this morning
bowed hostage to so beautiful
it can't stand''

My brother, what pleasure and deep emotion of warmth to a friend, knowing the above came from you.

Any poet here on this site would do well to construct such a meaning in such poetic tones and voice.
Bravo, Bravo.

I so love when something is good, it gives as much pleasure, most times, more, as if written myself.

And he sentence there, I could only dream of writing such a meaningful section. Poetry in motion...dare anybody to tell me different.

Love this Michael.

Made my day.
Best wishes. I would like to see this in Poem of the month as an entry next time. Deserves.

Best wishes.
RG ....truly loved it.

An emotional lament crying out for something seemingly just beyond reach yet visible and believable as the breaking day... and immeasurably beautiful before "evening lets space distance us again." I feel there is so much more to these emotional lines than I am mentally comprehending but the impact on my heart is as beautiful as the sunrise and unmistakable as the sound of song. I am once more moved and buoyed by the rising tide of emotion found in your words. Thank you for sharing your poet's heart.
