Reminds me of the doves that used to nest in our rain spouts in the winter and had nestlings in the spring. 🙏🏻🕊️

Those early mornings are so special, I should know I am awake early every morning.

Every-day mornings
are filled with repetition
until one cannot.
We have doves who nest beneath our deck and their cooing often woke us early in the morning. We\'re so used to it now it no longer wakes us. Our morning rituals follow the same pattern until we are both fully awake.
Your poem hit a nerve such that I thought you were writing about us. Your last line brings a real truth to the poem. We are grateful for every day we spend together on this Earth. needless to say I loved this poem. - Phil A.

That Couple next door: The Doves , maybe you should have a word with them. At it on a Sunday Morning.
I remember the Salvation army on Sunday Mornings way back. In your Street. Didn\'t need an Alarm clock then. A good Write.

I’m really glad you can find so much value in the five thirty start, Mine too, but I wish it could be eight thirty or nine. I define myself as a night owl and late riser. Now the up late remains, but also the five thirty wakefulness has reached a state of permanency, become fixed and….. All this has nothing to do with your situation, Neville – Your enjoyment clearly evident here.

That minuet that one awakes and just wants to go back to sleep for another hour. Too many things going on. Nicely done Neville

The old wisdom about water and its ultimate affect on stone surely would point to the ultimate fate of the mountain. Final score: River 1 Mountain 0.
However, there’s a richness here not alluded to in the stats...

What a lovely piece, Neville. The humor keeps it light, but underneath it there’s a real humility and tenderness…someone content to reflect something back rather than claim the light for himself. Beautifully done, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Wow, I enjoy your writing so much, yet so powerful. You had me thinking. Your dialogue between two characters—one who feels ordinary and the other who sees greatness in them—highlights the contrast between self-doubt and the admiration of others. Your poem suggests that interactions and reflections with others can shape one\'s identity and value.

It is those secondary thoughts bounced back phrases that rattle in the mind and are reflected back to another that provide opportunities at time. A fun read where the mirror uses the viewer as least as I see it. Nicely done Neville

Wow, Neville, this is one hell of an elemental showdown. The mountain may have stature, but the river has patience…and that deeper contest between pride, endurance, and inevitable change gives this real bite. Loved it, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Persistence out does strength and size. And those canyons carved and eroded they too cut deep. A wonderful and most wise fable with great meaning my friend. A fave

A strong poem, well written. Your poem contrasts the mountain\'s permanence and grandeur with the river\'s fluidity and dynamism, suggesting that pride and ego can be challenged and diminished by nature\'s relentless forces.

Clever Neville the first thing to mind now days was streaming off the net but I guess a net might be most useful when fishing. A lovely poem of recycling and nature is the best at that. Well done my friend

Well written. Your poem intertwines themes of creation, spirituality, and human emotions, contrasting the grandeur of the cosmos with the personal and intimate aspects of human experience. The poet suggests that the universe\'s design is intentional and that there is an inherent connection between celestial bodies and human feelings.

What a delightful reimagining of creation, Neville! The cosmic beauty carries genuine reverence, while the gentle humor gives God such warmth and personality. That closing turn brought it all home beautifully. Wonderful write, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Like all myths this one starts with the gods and with metaphoric brilliance paints a story that is easily understood by man. Poetically it shines with some great creativeness in the glue between night and day where the sun is no accident coming up each day on schedule and the moon is an accident sometimes appearing in the day. So poetically introduced. The stars as lanterns meant to be suns of their own blends modern celestial conceptions with ancient belief and the introduction of Eve and Adam was masterful that allowed the bringing in of the day of rest. How very Jewish and Christian of you my good friend. A most lovely story and a fave
