This work has reached the exceptional level

A most beautiful sentiment and beautifully expressed too, Roy. I enjoyed every verse but my favorite would have to be this one:

Deep in the canyons of the mind
that screams for sweet release,
I can't contain that precious brew
a tide that cannot cease. Thanks for sharing your wonderful gifts. You have several. MM

Hi Roy.
What's that line, whereby through the grace of God go I.
I believe its true.
Very nice expression here. I really like your line...
"Who stirs the scribal cauldron?" - very poetic.
Most of the poem is in 8-6 although the meter is a tad off in a few places. It doesn't matter though, the poems flows smoothly.
Thank you for your author's notes and as always, I enjoy your message.
Take care,
Katiemae Dead

A poet is one who is passionately in love with the language. They write about the feelings, about emotions and take you to a different world. They are true philosophers. Maybe they hear the whispers of the God, I loved the poem . Thank you for sharing.

Hi Roy,

Alas I have no sixes left. This is a 10 star rating if I could give that to you, I would gladly bestow. Your poem goes to the heart of a poet that cries for a sweet release to spill upon the page, the well overflowing that cannot be contained. The Good News must be told. You describe the process intimately...

So lovely, Roy! Says so much in each stanza... each line is a jewel and each stanza a gem because the words that flow are tempered by Him.

Always :))
Senyai
