This one may give me a diabetic fit. I can only stand so much sweetness and light in one sitting From a technical view the word oftener strains something. Though we differ in preferred style and content there is no denying your talent and I love your face. don

Thank you don, for your candid and totally unique thoughts, comments and compliments.
Truly hope it was not too overwhelmingly sweet, and quite survivable.
Have a terrific day. Best wishes, Ronni

The sun is still shining but a most-needed rain is coming tonight and perhaps tomorrow. Thanks for your pep talk and sweet whispers. More hugs and enjoy your Sunday- Joan

I like the message, colors, structure and the flow.I relate to " Divine 's Blessings." " Joy's rainbows linger within." I like the word choice and the fantastic photo.

Nice and descriptive thought giving personification to clouds with an appropriate picture accompanying it. I was a bit lost there with all of your wonders enumerated but truly enjoyed the sentiment.

Thank you for your most astute and perceptive thoughts and comments, and tale your
note on 'enumerated wonders' most appreciably, and will re read to better grasp your point
so kindly made. Overall, I am very pleased you enjoyed, and thanks too for the great rating.
Best wishes always, Ronni

Your poem had a very calming effect on me after I read it. I'm not a big fan of poems because sometimes they have a tendency to go on and on with words I've never heard of or cant pronounce. This one I found easy to understand and thoroughly enjoyed.

I am so very pleased to hear that this poem had a 'calming effect', and you readily
understood it and enjoyed thoroughly; that is compliment and reward a poet
direly hopes for. You have affirmed mine here in your appreciations, so gratifyingly.
Blessings and best wishes...Ronni

Except for the one-sided miss-perception of a deity which harbors evil as well as purported good with equanimity, as indicated in your penultimate line, a pleasant and uplifting read.

Thank you for your most candid thoughts and comments on this poem and presentation,
In your most astute assessment I appreciably note, you likewise retained a most commendable
command of objectivity, even aside from my 'penultimate line' in your rating, which I especially
note as a soundly in tact integrity and character,
The Deity you question, as to propensity for good or evil, endowed mankind with 'free will'
has often been noted, Biblically and historically, either one is a 'choice' made by mankind,
the 'option' was always there since creation, going as far back as the beginning in the
Garden of Eden. One can choose to believe that or dispute it disbelievingly, again it
is a matter of 'choice'. I sincerely respect and appreciate your convictions as you
have penned yours so compellingly, and adds to a wider range of views and awareness.
Best wishes always, Ronni

I had difficulty placing your response in the proper mental file because I just posted a poem that could have triggered words similar to those in your response to my review and I could not mentally flip to where your words belonged.

As for belief in a maker who created man so he could run the risk of hell: it is beyond the pale for me.

And if your response is, "He works in wondrous ways," I will be the first to agree with you.

Sorry you had the difficulty, but thank
your for appraising me of it.
One difficulty we both have, and both
agree on, as you noted, "He works
in wondrous ways'.. that is
a most appreciated conclusion.
and appreciate you sharing it.
Best wishes always, Ronni

Clouds and rains are given as blessings and refreshing as well, so they are not always trials.
Nicely written a pretty presentation. Patricia

Did you mean if in place of in?

An enjoyable read, Ronni, I thought that your writing flowed well and I couldn't find any errors. I was unsure though if you meant to write: clouds may come floating by rather than clouds my come floating by. Please correct me if I am wrong...Jacob
