Your message is clear, your style is engaging and your poem is well written. Everything you wrote, though seen through a dark veil with dark glasses on, is true and well presented.
Truth is the hardest to present truthfully, so well done!

Thank you Ed. I am very glad you liked it, despite it's darker overtones...
Comment from Samuel Dickens
Yes, it is depressing, and the fact that most of us can do nothing about it makes it even more so. Maybe the big, blue marble can somehow endure our terrible stewardship.

I will certainly do my best. We've been moving, so I have not been able to be on FS as much lately. But, I'll be back to 100% soon...
Comment from SaluteDobby
These are dark times, indeed. And you've elegantly, and in very few words, covered almost everything that's wrong with the world. I would say, I have never seen the world so black.
Well done, Dean! As always, your poems make me ponder on the meaning of life.

Comment from Lulube
Dean you've outdone yourself with this one!!!!!! Great just simply great!!!!!! A little astral travelling to set the world straight from within. Good portrayal of this. Believable. Nailed down the pity of the misfortune, that goes neglected by those that should and could make a difference.
Great poem!!!!!
Easy reading, clearly written, with great imagery and rhyming.

I feel the urgency of the message and I agree with you! Sometimes, I refrain from watching TV too because the news depresses me. THE SIGNS OF TIME - as written in the Bible. I just have one prayer: that I will die with my love ones.

Thank you for allowing to see inside your mind, or is it perhaps your soul.
This is the most incredible verse. You have, I think, posted the thoughts of every caring individual in these lines.
How I wish I had posted this poem

Well, Bob, you most likely have posted a version of your own. Anyone who cares about the world around them, as you obviously do, has written something concerning the pains and anguish in our world. Thank God there's love and compassio9n in it as well...
I appreciate your kind review, my friend.

Congratulations on a deserved victory. I seldom agree with the judges opinions in these monthly awards. This time however, they got it right.
Comment from MM lives on :)
wow Dean, this is a visual masterpiece and the sound enhances the whole voyage my friend...I was just watching the History Channel this afternoon about asteroids and galaxies and this took me there pal. Your words however speak of a need for earthly peace...we soar above watching yet are hand tied and witness to true pain,
6 GALACTIC AND MIND FLOWING STARS BROTHER!
