Hey Sally, this is indeed a lovely nonet about life and its fruitfulness, plants, and humans. I liked the sapling image and you are so right, the most sacred and valuable actions we make are our promises to God. They are for me, and I know they are for you too. And in my experience, He is faithful and returns in full, pressed down and overflowing.

Thanks for pointing me in the direction of your lovely nonet. I love the shape it makes on the page and the imagery and accompanying picture make this a beautifully present piece of poetry and thanks for sharing it, Eve.

It's important to remember how blessed we are. I hope that others will read this and do the same. Sometimes life can be overwhelming but it's the love of loved ones and our happiness that means the most.

Oh, Lady Sal -- this is such a wonderful offering, ma'am of heart and home! :) :) I would think it would make a wonderful poem to put below a picture of the family and give out for Christmas to each of them to hang in their homes... :) Thanx for sharing! ;) Yvette

    Thank you, Yvette. What a kind review and great idea for Christmas. ;) :) I don't know if I have the energy though. I'm battling shingles, again. :( :(

This is a beautiful tribute to the endurance of true love and its bountiful fruitage. When vows before God are taken seriously- the rewards in the form of family are immeasurable. Thank you for sharing the joy.

Hi Sally,
I like how you use the metaphor of a tree to describe your growth through your meeting of love and growing into a family that still grows.
This was nicely presented and a pleasure to read.
Bless you.
Brenda.x

What a beautifully crafted set of Nonet. You have really claimed this form as your own and crafted this exquisite pair flawlessly. So well done, Sally I like the theme and artwork as it sets the stage for the love that flows here. Great job.

I find this poem full of promise and hope. Both so much needed in our troubled times. I particularly like
"From
This tree,
Sons came forth."
evoking for me the continuity of life.
There is no part that I'm not so keen on.
