lonliness is eased to a: lonliness is eased to a certain degree by fond memories such as this,
and in your sharing, we all benefit.
Here's a wish for more time together soon for all of you.
I love how everything: I love how everything disappeared except the kiss. As always, fervently and skillfully constructed, with a feeling of satisfaction throughout. A keeper!
This is one of the most: This is one of the most spiritually profound---let me say it again, MOST SPIRITUALLY PROFOUND---poems ever posted on this site. And how, a logician might ask, can I say that . . . since admittedly I have not read all the poems that this site has presented since inception? My answer: I only need to read this poem, the tremendous spiritual quality of this poem, to make such an assertion.
I have to make some changes in my own pages on this site; and, though I have been resistant, the appearance of this poem on this night has spoken to me most encouragingly regarding these changes. Pride has prevented me from making them; pride which misinterprets humility as humilitation, as the poem demonstrates; but in this season of Great Lent, humility is called for most needfully.
I can applaud this poem for its beauty; but I thank you for this poem for its content and profound wisdom. Thank you for posting it.
