Such a poignant picture of death you have painted through your words. I could almost hear the call of the sea as the tide rises.... and feel the pain of the horses when day break never came.

You keep inviting my mind back to your village square. This time to watch the wrestlers pounce on a willing opponent". A very good read on old values lost in this present age of modernity. Thanks for sharing... more »

The world trains us to seek success as achievements. Now, I understand the joy that comes with that, but greater joy is helping others achieve their purpose.

you are very much welcome. You will need very colorful regalia, I must warn...

I appreciate your kindness. I'm also learning and trying to be better at my writing...
This poem had to be written! The world can't keep going on like everything is ok...

You have painted such a beautiful picture of serenity. I could almost hear the "rustle of trees "and see the cows grazing in "lush green feilds"....

I love the personification of success. How helping others was the ultimate prize! Thanks for sharing

I was transported to your village. And could see the innocence of untainted "waist dance" under the "full moon." The prayers in the name of "strange ancestors" and being led my "yellow ants" paints a poignant picture! Thanks for sharing... more »

Good that you acknowledge your challenges and depicts them as "shadows" & "darkness". Once there's light, the shadow will evaporate. May the light continue to guide your path...

I did too. My mom and I are very close... I cherish every moment the universe has given to us. She lives far away, but I try to keep in touch and have her words envelope me like a shawl.

It's never a competition of poems. Rather a circus where words are performed and readers like spectators, marvel. Please continue to write and inspire people like me.

This is a beautifully written poem with rhymes. I love the themes of loyalty and assurance. Thanks for sharing...

it was a short relationship that filled a gaping hole. Her absence might seem to have ripped back that hole, but you'll heal, howbeit, slow, but u will....

It's the bitter truth of this age! Corrupt politics where as you say, "Is everywhere, we find it in all nations", where they are "ruling for the sake of power to delay due process."
This is quite enlightening! Thanks for sharing. more »

Beautiful piece. Daisy so personified! Happy you must be to have them adorn your garden..."growing so tall or choose to stay petite."
