This is an excellent poem, my friend. So very well written and full of wisdom. We would all benefit from being more childlike and open to the wonders of the world. Have a blessed day~Debbie

Thanks Debbie, you have as much humility and integrity as anyone I know, tough times have made you humble and receptive to truth a wisdom, and sick of the hypocrisy in our society, you do a great job in trying to release people from their chains. It is an honour to be supported by you. Blessings, Roy.
Comment from Dean Kuch
As believers, we never stand as tall as when we are down on our knees.
As seekers of wisdom and truth, we need but to study one source.
As poets, authors or writers, we should be free to write what pleases us, and us alone, without having to suffer the persecution from others for having so. If it pleases others, so be it. If not, oh well...
Wonderfully and eloquently well worded and rhymed as usual, Roy.
Blessed be, mate,

Comment from James H. Oldfield
Really, really liked this one, and excellent write.
A strong, wise message, and paced impeccably.
In the first line of the final stanza, I'd, personally drop the 'no'. I'm like the statement it carries, but to me it throws the meter off, which make that line somewhat difficult to resolve. It holds the same meaning with or without the 'no', so I think you could afford to do without, without harming the message.
Excellent work, very well done.
Take care.

Comment from brenda bickers
Hi Roy,
wow have I missed your superb writing. As always you deliver a very beautiful poem with outstanding flow and rhythm. It is sad that as we get older we loose the ability to see the world through untarnished eyes. It is said that to see the world through a child's eyes is the truest form of mankind.
Well done, I loved it.
