Your fine poem speaks to me of anticipating death, the transition from life to death and acceptance. We let go of one and embrace the other, willingly or not, it's inevitable. Nicely done. Marilyn

A very well-written free verse poem. We can always find hope in the littke things around us, in the sparkling sun or fluttering butterflies or the rainbow in the sky after an afternoon shower.

Beautiful! This is a masterpiece, "Outside self
beyond death's boundaries
reflected in refracted
prisms of faith
the sun sparkles
butterflies flutter
rainy afternoon
chases
rainbow moment
around
life's bend
into infinity." How fine are the word choices and imagery portayed.
Really a great piece of work.
Have a nice weekend. Namaskaram

These words fit the illustration of your poem with the bubbles dancing in the air. Very pretty imagery.

This is a very well written free verse poem you have penned. My favorite part was:
prisms of faith
the sun sparkles
butterflies flutter
rainy afternoon
chases
rainbow moment
around
life's bend
into infinity.

I enjoyed reading and reviewing it. Blessings, Teri

Beautiful picture. Love all the alliteration which is harder than it looks. 'Beyond death's boundaries' leaves so much scope for the imagination. I love 'rainbow moment' this leaves me with a smile. MaggieF

A great free verse entry and I wish you lots of luck with this poem. I'm suspecting it is a painting of griefs tragic brush and the grounding it can bring, love Dolly x
