A Gentleman\'s promise. This is gorgeous and with such a message of strength and acceptance, things don\'t always go the way we want, it\'s how we deal with the cards we are dealt that counts 🌹

INTEGRITY. That is what this poem is about. And too few people have it any more. Excellent job, my friend! 🌹👏

I recall reading about David Thompson (Welsh explorer of Canada), who after having spent years in the wilderness with fellow explorers and Native peoples, returned to the city. He had made some money trading and lent the money to various city folks who asked for loans. In the wilderness, a man\'s word was sacred. Not so in the city. He was left destitute.

Yes indeed all he can be is bound up in his honesty and trust of his word. A powerful thoughtful poem

A resonating poem wherein Silence does not mean absence, and despair does not mean permanence. We are still here, and that means something. And even in the coldest moments, warmth is never truly beyond reach. We are not alone in this.🙏🏻🕊️

Haunting and vivid—your imagery chills to the bone. A masterpiece of despair, beautifully bleak.

Powerful, my dear friend. This poem punches in all the right ways. I know of what it speaks and its message works on multiple levels. Profound poetic truth. Well done, Soren! 🌹👏

A sense of impending doom and death, question being do we go quietly or do we try to change it, enjoyed the read

For your imagery alone this is a kudos but speaks so loudly in this new dawn of weirdness of our world today. Brilliant on so many levels. 🌹

Hello Soren,
\'If any question why he died. Tell them, because our fathers lied.\' Kipling. Your poem reminds me of Kipling, how he sought favour for his son to go to war and as a consequence never to return. This one really provokes the mind, so, too, the soul. A profoundly powerful verse and perfectly composed. The poem should be awarded accolades galore and its author lionised. Happy Father\'s Day and may you have many more.
Kind regards,
Tony.

Not to be facetious, but yes, He did send His Son down to the \'parish\' to save us - should be \'perish\'. Oops!

Happy Father’s Day, Soren. Quite a fitting poem/metaphor for the day. It, of course, will poke at people with fragile faiths; however, so be it. Or as Jesus would say, “Amen.” This poem is quite profound and very thought-provoking on many levels. Well done, my friend. 🌹👏

So powerful my dear sorrenbarret, I guess as a mother of a child I hope that my son\'s dad is inspiring with all the right features, but no man is perfect. Happy father\'s day to you dear friend. 🌹

Wow this is a lot to think about. The good book is a bit weird if I\'m honest. What father giveth his only begotten son to take away the sins of a million strangers. Sorry but it is beyond laughable. This capture the anger we have about the absurdity of the scriptures. I really enjoyed reading this it fits the atheist manifesto really well.
