Took a second reading, Spiros, to capture the essence of this wise bit of five lines of total harmony. Yes, a thimble full is no match for all of yourself . . . ~*~ He did not wear his scarlet coat, |

..Jerry, my friend, thanks for your comment--(thanks for reading)..the way i see it, the blessings are the thimble and the garden is the finger..and then there's the ending: your giving of yourself is wider an oasis's privilege..thanks..>>spiros |

Ah, well, that's what it means then, Spiros, but unless the meaning is perfectly clear to the reader, then whatever he or she thinks of it is true to the poem. At any rate, I enjoyed reading it. ~*~ He did not wear his scarlet coat, For blood and wine are red, And blood and wine were on his hands When they found him with the dead,--Wild |

Spiros, my friend, it did not take me two reads to see into the essense and spirituality of this beautiful winding of words... I think I know you that well, and yet I know so little... be as that may, what you said truly took my breath away, with an oh wow escaping my lips. Thank you for bringing life to this very moment. always, Sunshine |

Well, Sunshine, some of us are slower than others. Even after my second read I still didn't get it. Dense. That's me. ~*~ He did not wear his scarlet coat, For blood and wine are red, And blood and wine were on his hands When they found him with the dead,--Wild |
