A wise assumption and one to be heeded. We are all His sheep and when we learn how to love our fellow man this world would never be the same but live under an umbrella of God's love.

I find this to be a really nice, creatively conceived write, not too heavy in it's intended message, but not light and fluffy either!

Very descriptive with colorful words employed...flows very well and has no apparent SPAG issues within. The artwork is quite attractive as well...great choice!

Thanks for sharing this, and all the best to you going forward with it!

With warm regards...

JMU

Not being a spiritual person does not blind me to the notion expressed here, that we are all the same in the eyes of God, who loves us all. Even without spirituality, I see the wisdom in recognising that we are all as special as the next person, and that mutual respect, and fellowship, is the positive solution to hatred. A well presented free verse.

This poem flowed beautifully. I love how you incorporated your god into it, but you never came completely out with it. You left the mystery. Beautifully written. You truly have a gift.
