This is a very profound message that speaks of innocent's demise. It reminds us that no matter how carefully we tread, there's never a guarantee of escaping life's numerous dangers and traps. Thought provoking.

This is a lovely Easter write, well written, with good rhyme and rhythm. I like the opening and closing verses bringing in nature and through the sparrow and dolphin representing all animals.I see you are from Adelaide, I live in Townsvill NQ now but formerly from Paradise, in Adelaide's N.E. suburbs.

    Well hello Pearl, there's a few of us online, there are a lot more Americans, but that's ok. We used to live in Athelstone, but now Elizabeth Park! We have been through Townsville on two occasions! We journeyed out to Magnetic island! But then I suppose everybody does! But thank you for your wonderful review, I trust our literary paths will cross shortly. Good to meet you Pearl, blessings, Roy.

This perfectly rhymed, rhythmic poem of the passion is beautiful ly penned and the addition of the artwork, though hard to see, is in perfect juxtaposition with these words.

Oh what a great poem, with a picture that brings feeling of shame and regret for how we treat him. Yet he loves us, no matter what we do. Good word flow and rhyming, tell of our savior and what his love, compelled him to do.

Perfect timing for Easter. Like how you've brought nature into the picture. Makes your writing more colorful. Your author notes are a nice added touch. Very nice rhyming. My favorite are the first and last verses. Like how they're similar. Thanks for sharing. Les

Hi friend, and so very glad that I found this! Your poems speak to me so loud and clear. This was so perfect to read at Easter, and it's evening here so what a way to end a wonderful day. I love each and every stanza, and some repeat in the last one. And always love to read the scripture in author notes. I hope you had a very Happy Easter, and you know how much I enjoy reading you. . .Sharon

Wonderful Easter tribute to spirituality and faith
Your poem is both full of hope and brutal in its depicting of the foolery of man
I found the text on illustration hard to read but it somehow added to the mystery of the setting
