"Why is it so?"
This was well written Rich in Theme and Imagery.
It also, read well and flowed well with no Grammar Issues.
...
And, Unfortunately in the world there's too many judgments by too many wrong people. The power is in the wrong hands, along with the wealth.
Yes, while the remainders live in pain, filth, misery, and
Ill health!
...
Right now in a small eastern part of the world the whole entire Earth is wondering what the outcome will be between Mother Russia and Ukraine and what the ultimate results will be when it comes to the dictator named Valdimar Putin?

Roy,
I am unsure of how long you have been writing, but beauty and truth dance together through your musings. The harsh truth is ugly, but your delicate weaving leaves me with a sense of hope despite the sins of the past. I love the use of questions to draw contemplation. Only suggestion..."verbal stools" sounds poetic, but I am unsure of what you are trying to say. Overall, very well done.
Thanks for sharing,
Jen

Excellent poem, Roy. It's not easy to do the right thing. Jesus said no one was good but God. Paul complained that he kept doing wrong in spite of all his efforts. But as you say, the grace of God sets us free.

Thanks for sharing your inspired poetry and the wisdom of your author notes.

Stay safe and blessed

Julia

This is a well written poem. The conclusion of this poem says it all. The message is one we all need to consider. We do need to stop judging things we don't understand. Your poem flows well, and I do like the consistent rhyming scheme. Great job.

This was so beautiful Roy. I loved the picture of God's hand reaching out for another hand. Your words inspired the faith and trust in God's words. Only someone who believed in those words. Very well done, greatly enjoyed. Blessings.

The times in which we live is a test of faith for sure! Who would think that such a war could happen in 2022? And the pandemic -- having lived through two years of it, with division amongst so many.

Yes, "loving ALL" -- not so easy to love our enemies, yet that is exactly what we must do -- pray for them. It's easy to love our family and friends...

As always, your rhyme and meter are spot-on, your poem evocative.

This is a very informative writing and I appreciate your Author Notes as well. I do not know that much about Aboriginals but I do admire them--just like I do Native Americans. Life has been hard on them both. I also like that you provide associated scripture with your noteworthy postings. The artwork your chose, again, is beautiful. Smiles, Janet

If we cannot love our neighbor whom we can see, how can we claim to love God whom we cannot see? 1 John 4:20. And yet many who claim to be God-fearing Christians will not lift a finger to help those of another race, breaking not man's law, but God's. So sad...
