Sitting here within today
Comforting my eyes in grace

Dear Cynthia,

As one writer to another (a bow to you), how shall I describe this exquisite poem?

Let me simply say that it strikes me as a marvel of compact narrative.

Why so a marvel? - because it packs in such a brief statement a sweet blend of things, significant, meaningful, expressive, telling.

I read again the lines in the first stanza that say

Sitting here within today / Comforting my eyes in grace

...and I sit back and murmur "I wish I had written that!"

And then the finale...

"Curtains flowing soft
The butterflies gather lunch
Inside the open petals"


Magnificent!
Beautiful words lovely to imbibe.

Cynthia,
had I the way that you have with such words I would truly be a poet

Loku :up:


Cynthia 26. June 2008, 14:01

Oh Loku! Thank you so much for this gentle, kind compliment for these words I placed together. It is you, my dear friend, who is truly a great poet. This you accomplish with each new composition. Really! Thank you so much! I hope your day has been filled with smiles. :smile:

Cynthia, thank you :happy:

My day has been a blend of sadness and smiles.

For the first, I lift up my eyes in Hope and prayer.
For the second, I am always thankful.

As for your delicate and sublime poetry - it is your deep inner expression at work, and you share this with every one, for which we all thank you. :up:

Cynthia 26. June 2008, 16:50

WOW! You are most welcome, Loku, and thank you for your words. It means much to me to know that you respect what it is I am doing.

I don't like to hear that part of your day has been saddness. Thank goodness there were smiles too. Take a good rest. Tomorrow is always a new day! :smile:

lokutus_prime 26. June 2008, 19:58

Amen :up:

Cynthia 26. June 2008, 20:25

Thank goodness! :up:

Let me have a small seat to admire that scene,
even far behind the rows.
