Well... I think you all are right, this poem needed to be changed. Here it is.

~For The Time Being~


The womb is a global sky
and though we
exist in the exits of life
we are nurtured forever
from hallowed breasts.

(big angel hugs) Such wonderful imagery and symbolism fills your words, sweet friend, yay, God Bless You, poetry nurtures our hearts too and yours brought one big smile my way, yay, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Grover, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Yanno Grover?...It's sad that a great poem like this brings such deplorable thoughts to me as soon as I read the first line....the first thing that came to my mind was a tampax being a billowy cloud...I need therapy!.....This is a great write pal...

Enjoyed this very much Grover.
