Very sweet and bittersweet as well. Lovely. Thanks Arjan Tupan for recommending you.

Thank you Weston, I've since edited but consider it a success if it managed to contain some sweet, I often struggle to include a redemptive thread in some darker themes.

Arjan, he is wonderful!

Thank you. Yes, I read the Bible every night before bed. I told myself when I started that this was an academic exercise. It’s become something more now. I think I have a ways to go before I’m “saved.” I will keep reading in the meantime.

I like your poems a lot.

This is a gorgeous poem, ranging for meaning in childhood memories plus so much more. I love the ending, often so wrong in a poem. Lois R
