Goldfinch60 said:
Very good write. I think we all have our ideal way for leaving this world and laying beneath the trees sounds ideal.

Let Us Cross Over The River (Pantoum Poem)
MendedFences27 said:
Some would say that the loss of Jackson is what cost the south the war. Lee was never as efficient without him. Your sad poem of a dying man, a general, and his final words to his troop and his wife, is touching and poetic. It presents a scene that could happen even today. The final moments of one\'s life are never as expected. The import of the final utterance, of crossing over the river brings an air of the mystical to your poem. Great write. - Phil A.

I always appreciated the vivid colors of the Caribbean. These gems, are they special stones from the islands or just a remembrance of another time. Loved your descriptions. -Phil A.

Uplifting poem and it reminds me of when my children were young. We have one of our grandsons here for a sleepover and he brings us such joy as they all do - this poem applies equally..

Ugly War!
WriteBeLight said:
So sorry for what you went through. You describe, well, the devastation, pain and destruction. It is a horrible situation, and yes, very ugly. Great job on this thoughtful piece.

Ugly War!
MendedFences27 said:
War will end when the would be soldiers and would be victims refuse to follow the greedy, power-hungry, manipulative bastards in power. Today, they play, not with just war casualties, but also with the total destruction of the planet. One more war could be the last action any of us ever make. We have idiots, tyrants, and lunatics with their fingers on the many buttons that could start it all. God save us! - Phil A.

Like you say, we announce it publicly to the world with God watching. I feel sorry for those who have not experienced what you poetically describe.

Under The Canopy of a Tree
MendedFences27 said:
When we meditate, most often we seem to ponder peaceful ideas. Is it human nature that solitude among nature brings peace? Man would learn a lot if trees could talk, maybe how to be at peace. Wouldn\'t that be great?Loved your poem, always love poems where nature plays a large role. One more thought: Maybe its the size of trees under which we sit that makes us feel safe and secure. Great write. Loved it. _ Phil A.

DS, I love to write poems and I find myself looking and observing around for subjects to write about. It\'s funny, I find myself composing phrases as I experience life. I really appreciate your words. They encourage me to write. I want to leave a legacy. I want to impact others with my verses. My heart is sensible and melancholic, that\'s why I write with such feelings. Thank you for your kinds words. I really, really am encouraged when I read your comments. Thank you!
