DAMN! THAT WAS GREAT! ... I'd add it to my RL but I'm maxed out .... so I guess I have to steal it - lol (jk)

Bravo! Poet Bravo!

blown away by that reply Big Dog :)

so descriptive whale...such a beautiful read...tears are forming as I write...it belongs in my reading list...thank you

Dear Kate - thank you for such a heartfelt comment and I honoured by your Add

Ahhh, whale, luv ~ :-*

I have come by and read this more than once today each time seeking what to say for you have left me speechless with this:

We become what we have half-seen
Seek - have touched and I offer this
A flaxen head dreaming on my shoulder gently
Breathing in long beats by which I measure my days.

All I can offer is this: I know this place, luv, though the head is ebon... :-*

And, ahhh yes, this as well (it seems words have not entirely failed me): you write it masterfully.

savaja savoir - this is such a kind comment and I am grateful for your visit to my pages - thanks again

it all comes down to the one drowsing on the shoulder
that numbers the days; each one a blessing.

we stumble around here for hours in order to fall into a poem like this...

Thanks JF - there's not much you haven't seen and I'm glad you saw this - all the best

Breathtaking and heartfelt observation amid daily observations, Whale.  

Thank you for this comment Ahavati - very much valued

This is the gospel in accordance with whale... oh my God, the opening stanza is a glorious setting for a [modern-day] parable, then the second stanza... perhaps the peace one has found has given new meaning to be alive. Glorious! If you were to rewrite the philosophies of the bible in your unique poetic style... you would call me a believer!

Hey Alex - thanks for this great and kind comment - half way through a bit of a wander but will attend to all soon - thanks again

Exceptional work Whale with metaphorical depth and skillful writing.
So refreshing to read work that a reader dives into unchartered territories.
Good luck in the comp, you have set the bar high to all who have followed.

Thanks Vee for this gracious comment - much appreciated

beautiful work as always whale, you continue to be my number one and favorite poet on this site

Thanks deagas that's a very kind comment

Profound and substantial piece my friend. It makes one ponder...and such is the cause of a poet. Well done.

Thanks for this 50ftB and thanks for the add
