Hey Jewell, I am so not getting announcements of your writings and I'm a fan...wonder why? This is a fab piece of writing. I liked the rhyming scheme. It feels like you are holding a conversation with me freestyle with just enough rhyme to make the piece glide softly into my mind. Wonderful work my friend. xoxo deborah

    Aaaw. Love ya, girl. You actually inspired this years ago when you asked, " What is it you see?" I re-titled it and posted it again. Wrote some good stuff back then. ;-) Seems to come in streams...
    Miss your poems, girl!
    Thanks so much for your constant support.

The last verse of this poem is pure inspiration. If only everyone could think of adversity as fire that purifies and refines us. Lovely words presented in a flawless rhythm and rhyme. A sixer for sure. Blessings, Linda

Well written and good use of descriptive words to display vivid imagery. Your picture choice accents your work and your rhyming scheme adds a bit of character to your words:)

This is so perfect for the feelings I have had since I found out about my wife. You are truely gifted from our FATHER in Heaven to be able to feel others pain and joy and pen it perfectly. On top of all of that the closing line said it all...we have pain for one of 2 reasons; 1) Self inflicted, discipline for sins because they are unconfessed and we are out of Fellowship with GOD the HOLY SPIRIT and 2)We have confessed them, they were put back on the Cross, we are in Fellowship, filled with the HOLY SPIRIT and we are being tested for Blessing from GOD..."The joy of pain becomes refining when combined with Love and Light" thought about and penned perfectly! You are Awesome Lady!!! Thank you for your understanding, and thank GOD Grace for giving it to you!!!

Here's hoping that your words will light a flame that burns brightly all around the globe. Too much darkness -- maybe because more don't see what you see.

Well done write on the refiner's fire.

Love your metaphysical ponder.

I especially like:I feel refining fire's flame
Creating gilded treasures fine
Where broken vessels become whole
Reflections of a truth sublime

Intrigued by those who know the fire
I've come to revel in delight
The joy of pain becomes refining
When combined with love and light

Bravo!

I really thought you did an excellent job with this poem. The descriptions were great, and it seemed to flow very well.

I got a little hung up in the second to last verse, last two lines. It could have just been me, but it seemed to stop the flow momentarily for me.

Anyways, fantastic job. It was an enjoyable read.
