I wanted to read this: I wanted to read this captivating, sly and jolting statement a few times because your strategy is very effective. The message is underscored by your brilliant choice of structure and voice; the sparse lines speak with an ominous, serpentine perception and coil around our consciousness in the blink of an eye. A shrewd and farsighted wake-up call. Love it!

A vivid and refined analogy: A vivid and refined analogy that illustrates the desirability of what is simple and natural over human definitions of opulence. Another brilliant perspective.

While the poem definitely: While the poem definitely presents a cautiomary tale, it should be posted, perhaps, well after the holiday and not this close to the holiday's arrival.

The inspiration you draw from: The inspiration you draw from Nguyen De is like a transporting breeze, and this is no exception; the vibrant winds resulted in excellence in purity, emotional impact and execution.   It's lines like these that glisten and hum long after the last line is read:   ". . . So, in my junior high school naivete, I concluded that if I could imagine bruises, scrapes, and damage schoolbooks into reality, I should also be able to imagine my own, private, and sheltering shrine to the Glory of Christ."   Quiet magnificence.

Your expression whispers and: Your expression whispers and haunts and shatters. A few delicate, relatable lines that pinpoint the experience take on so much power in your talented hands that I'm silenced. And that's art.

patriciajj commented on: A message for a friend by SSmoothie 1 year 41 weeks ago
"sometimes its as simple as : "sometimes its as simple as  remembering to reach out with a prayer and breathe in the answer"   The casual splendor, the unflinching truth, the shimmering wit, the realness of your expression has almost moved me to tears.   Every line says: "I know!"   Every word says: "hope"   A perfect pocket dial with a profound message that makes us all your friend.
