And there was light
Friendship said:
Your poem explores the creation of light and life, emphasizing the sun as a central figure in the genesis of existence. It reflects on humanity\'s relationship with the divine and the natural world, portraying the sun as both a source of life and a deity worshipped by primitive minds.

And there was light

A fine write SB. Yes, in Charles Wesley\'s hymn \'Hark, the herald angels sing\' a possibly confusing line in some versions is: \'Hail, the Sun of Righteousness\'. Yet it is also in some Bible versions as \'Sun\' (Malachi 4 v.2 in the Old Testament). Then a cross-reference relates it to Luke 1 v.78 - covered in my poem for today. Of course, it doesn\'t mean we should worship the sun.
And - makes sense to create light first - so God could see what he was doing maybe?!

This sharp satire masterfully wields holiday themes to critique policy and paranoia. The blend of absurdity and pointed allegory is brilliantly effective. A darkly merry and memorable piece.

Soren, this piece cuts because it refuses subtlety. The rhymes move fast, the images escalate, and the satire keeps tightening its grip. It’s absurd, yes (so is where we are currently)…but it’s also uncomfortably recognizable. A biting, fearless holiday revolt. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

You made me laugh, nicely put. Your poem \"Merry Trumpmess\" critiques contemporary political attitudes toward immigration and cultural traditions, particularly around the Christmas holiday. It presents a satirical perspective on how policies and rhetoric can impact cherished customs and figures associated with the season.

This feels like stepping into a living landscape. The imagery is vivid and abundant, and the closing lines with sound and scent bring it full circle.

Soren, this is gentle, immersive, and deeply restorative. Nature isn’t scenery here…it’s companion, witness, and blessing all at once. The consistency of tone is what makes it linger. Beautiful work. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️

I absolutely love how the walls just seem to melt away in this poem! The imagery of hummingbirds perching in the shower and of fireflies serving as a bedroom light is so whimsical and intimate. It transforms the idea of a \"home\" into a living, breathing sanctuary where the \"shuddering\" of the outside world finally goes quiet. It’s such a beautiful, sun-drenched vision of peace. 🕊️🙏

Soren, this is sharply observant. There’s a steady accumulation here that makes imbalance feel inevitable rather than accidental. It lands with a quiet heaviness. Very well done, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

The progression from plant to child works seamlessly.
It makes the poem feel like a living, breathing observation.

Wow, Friendship really does summarise this superb write . In my garden today here in early winter in the UK the first snowdrop, hemerocallis in bloom and birds singing in readiness for what lies ahead. Oh the circular joys of life.

Your poem revolves around the consequences of excess and imbalance, particularly in the context of growth—both in nature and in human development. The subject matter juxtaposes the nurturing of plants with the upbringing of children, suggesting that just as plants require a balance of water, sun, and nutrients, children also need a balanced environment to thrive. The poem warns against overindulgence and neglect, emphasizing that both extremes can lead to stunted growth and negative outcomes.
