Comment from Ogden
Good work, Roy! The one thing I'm pretty sure I understand, is it's about hope. I particularly like the second stanza (although it doesn't seem to be about hope). I agree that hope is an important attribute for those who have it.

It is a little confusing in some lines but quite clear in others. For those clear lines, and the fact that all of it is well written, I give you five stars. I think your illustration was to show reflection and so it pairs well.

Comment from January L'Angelle
Hey Roy, I enjoyed the poem! I'm going to guess that this is about how much we don't really know about so many things in life. It's about the intangible and unknowing mysteries that plague us as mankind. I'm pretty sure that when most people don't know stuff, they fill in the blanks. That goes for God related things especially. If I'm way off base... oh well, it's always nice to talk to you. Much love my friend! -January L. :)

Comment from A. Louise Robertson
Your poem and the picture you chose express your title well. I read in your notes about the time spent in reflection, perhaps that is a sign of being a certain age, for I find myself there often. I, too, carry hope in my heart and anticipate that mystic wisdom will someday be sown.
I appreciate your sharing the Bible quote from Corinthians, to which you have so aptly related.
This poem is very well crafted and was and thoroughly enjoyed by me.

Comment from Bichon
A very interesting poem, Roy! It really reminded me of looking deep inside ourselves and what resides there. Very powerful lines and provoking imagery!

Hello Roy, I can't speak for others but I do live in the past, and in the present and I always have had great hope for the future. Every day is a good day, just some days are better than others. Best wishes.

Comment from CrystieCookie999
I especially like your last stanza:
This shell is merely beauty's host (I assume the shell is the mortal body)
that harbours Heaven's dreams.
And when the final curtain falls,
plays haven to hope's schemes. (hope for a resurrection, when body and spirit are combined again in immortal form)
Nice share for Sunday (in my part of the world).

Comment from Susan Larson
"So many things I do not know, perhaps it's just as well" makes me think of my trigonometry teacher back when God could still be mentioned in the schools. He said "The Creator doesn't see fit to reveal all the secrets of His universe." I believe you are both right.

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written poem about our thoughts that sometimes dwell in places where we never thought it will be possible, we have to explore our dark side too and take care not to go too deep.
