HI Sweetheart. Interesting pondering. I think the first few stanzas are a bit vague for the general reader, though I like them a lot and do not suggest changes. The flow is good too. I especially loved the closing
Recycled decisions
The constant circle
Finally brings revelation
To change what was
To obtain
what we never had
Nice to read your philosophical meanderings.
Love you...and I am back on line now!
Hugs,

I will consider the first few lines. Let me know if you have suggestions. I AM SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU BACK! Missed you!

I'm sure you've heard the old expression "You can't miss what you've never had." That might be the title for this. Sedate use of language and very insightful. Well done. Ray.

Thanks Ray! I like that suggestion but it would be cliche' no?

Yes. It wasn't an actual title suggestion, just a way to summarize the theme. Ray.

The past is behind us, yet we constantly take the detour instead of going forth and learning the lesson sooner. Your word speak volumes, Jewell. Great piece of work. Judy

great job jewell. how many of us never learn this lesson? we see where we have been but we continue to repeat the same old patterns and make the same choices. to get a different outcome we must make different choices. we can create a new fate. you state this so well. I love the free verse. well done.

You know, we'll continue to have the chances to change our ways, until we finally change our ways! God is merciful that way. Right? So happy to hear from you again!
Comment from The Rivaling Mimic
Hmm the last post I read by VisionaryPoet777 it stated in her bio that she goes under...Thru_Her_Eyes if I recall correctly. Anyway, that's besides the point. Your poem match the picture perfectly. I have noticed no room for improvemnt.

Thru Her Eyes WAS the former screen name for fanart! I need to change that in my bio. Thank you for the reminder! I thought you read this with blinders on. How did you know it was mine?

Hello dear one. I apreciate you stopping in! I wrote this before yesterday! Perhaps it was a message to me for what was to come. Duh! We are always warned. We just don't listen.
Comment from Kingsland
that's an excellent picture you chose to adorn your words. it has a suitableness as the poem relays as well. Your form and format work in well for this verse as well .this was just a delight to have read and reviewed it... John

What does the content tell you, John. This felt like a generic review. But I am very happy to hear from you!
