Comment from w.j.debi
This is a wonderful tribute to Maureen and the ideal of light and hope she is to so many of us. It brought tears to my eyes.
I love the imagery you create in the lines:
The voltage from our million flames
could not compete with the light you give
Well penned.

Jimi, this is one of the best poems for Maureen I've read. This fits so well with the music on her profile page. I'm sure she'll love this one when she reads it. (Have to think positive)
I loved loved the third stanza. Anyone would be very proud to have this poem written about them. Though it is clear this one fits her so well. Pearl

"We wait in joyful hope for the coming of the Spirit." A beautiful presentation for Maureen. I loved your poem - every candle sends a prayer to our Father. Perhaps He needs her more than we. To every man there opens a highway and a low - each man decides which way his soul shall go." Bless you my friend. ****** six virtual stars cause I ain't got da real ones!

Very crisp and clean writing. I love the metaphors you have used. I especially like the last verse. It reasonates conflict and sadness and ends in resolution. Very poignant piece, enjoyed reading!

Jdrhye! Where have you been? What a pleasent surprise. Thank you so very much. I am humbled. Are you still painting?
-
I am painting, gardening, raising dairy goats and learning to play the piano!! I missed writing and have decided to give it a go again!! I am a bit rusty though. It may take me a bit to get re -acclimated.
Thank you for remembering me😊
-
Let me know if I can help. Of course I remember you! I wondered where you went and was afraid you got discouraged. You should let Kingsland know you're back. He will be thrilled. I know I am. I had often wondered about you. JIMI.

Thank you☺️

Not sure how to find kings land. I have posted a poem not sure it's any good! I will try and find a recent poem of his and review it!

A million candle helps ten million prayers to flow to Heaven seeking guidance for Maureen to renew her health. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words making for a good read.
