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.

Like a ruderal bloom appearing out of the junk in this splendid poem. Sometimes the subject of a poem can distract from its excellence, as is the case here. I always love reading your poetry but this one really got me. Line into line with perfect continuity and wording balances the poem complete in its artistry. If you found this one in the trash, please keep searching. Excellent, Soren, truly.
All the best,
Tony.

Writer\'s block. The muse takes a vacay. Every writer\'s dread turned into an eventual triumph. And, look what we have here, a poem about junk that isn\'t junk at all! That\'s the beauty of it really. Even when all we have are scraps of ideas left over of what we wanted to write, even when the muse has gone, something brilliant can emerge. This is one such emergence, my friend. Well done! 🌹👏

The poem \"Junk\" radiates a profound message of creativity, resilience, and transformation, illuminating the potential for new creations and hope to emerge from the ashes of past failures and disappointments. It conveys the empowering notion that even the most discarded and broken elements can be transformed into something meaningful. The person\'s reflective journey of gathering remnants of inspiration serves as a powerful reminder to craft something extraordinary. The poem\'s uplifting message inspires readers to discover beauty and potential in the remnants of their past, embracing their own creative journeys with courage and perseverance. Ultimately, it reminds us that from the darkest depths of despair and decay, new life, hope, and transformation can be nurtured, awakening our inner strength and resilience.

It happens to writers. Sometimes it\'s a travel through a desert. The words, the ideas don\'t turn up. Inspiration is a mystery and is beyond anyone\'s control. When it happens you must make the most of it. Reading Wordsworth\'s (1770-1850) work, you will notice that as from a certain point, his writings became rather bland.

Love the description of poems past, well and maybe even current. Well thats what popped in my mind. Writers block? Or the words you write aren;t exactly what your looking for. We as writers are our own worse critics. At least that is the was I took this piece. but hey, I enjoyed reading your words and the metaphors were well worth the read. Thank you for making me think this early morning. As well as the smile of my face, Very well thought out .

Hello soren,
Hand made love, a very subtle way of putting it, and as for \'back swaying\' along in old age, aptly observed and rendered forth with doddering panache - excellent! Even the thought of making a bed is a labour in itself. A delightful verse of humour to carry me through the day. Thank you very much for sharing this one.
From one self \'maid\' man to another,
Tony.

The poem is a powerful reflection on life\'s journey, illuminating the transformative power of time and the evolution of our desires and needs. It beautifully unfolds from innocent childhood dreams to the realization of life\'s stages, culminating in a profound yearning for comfort and simplicity in our golden years. The bittersweet beauty of aging, the shift from whimsical aspirations to practical necessities, and the ultimate quest for comfort in a life well-lived serve as a poignant reminder to cherish the simplicity that often gets overlooked amidst life\'s complexities.
