held together with soft lead prayers pleading, “Have mercy” for all that I have done in past. of inner fade and outer blue-- everything we long to do is held within our grasp. miracles in edge of shine. Tell me I am rancid, yet, I’m water, changing to fine wine… and bellow name of God--disguised... within the notes of love composed singing in a holy choir. |

like the idea my friend of the image and the lines..of the person being but bits of colored..... obvious you struggled to make the visual work here..and without it quite honstly the poem would lose some of its impact on the reader. The words are wonderful.... the image adds to it... |

Wooohooo! Serenity ... you did it!!! This is just wonderful! The work you put both into the graphics, and the poem is really amazing, and the flow between the two compliment each other beautifully. You did a great job on this Karen ... keep up the excellent work, my friend! Best wishes and great big hugs, /Kit |
