A Place of Contentment

With such a gorgeous nature portrayal, I was sure you were going to contentment in the natural creation. But at the end, I find that contentment is in a beloved one, and it could even be taken spiritually with the contentment in God's embrace.

It's beautiful, great rhyming, and great descriptive words, describing the beauty of nature. The picture you have chosen certainly expresses peace and contentment. We are blessed.

Comment from Moon baby
This is truly a wonderfully written poem with a range of descriptive metaphors and meanings. A true poetic type of poem that is classic! You have a creative writing skill that should be in a book for others to enjoy for years to come.

Comment from dragonpoet
Janet,
This poem gives strong images of a ideal place for a peaceful sunset walk. It also gives off feeling of earthly and divine love. The background matching the artwork works well.
Keep writing and stay healthy

Comment from Terry Broxson
A lovely poem for this contest, good luck. You got a lot going on in this gem including lots of color and lots of sounds. You have got some cool sights and some good feelings. The only thing missing is scents to smell. Good work. Terry.

Thank you Terry for your thoughtful and encouraging review. I did miss "scent" in this one didn't I? (smile) I'll give it a go next time.

Comment from Verna Cole Mitchell
This is lovely with meter and rhyme and sensory details. As a fellow-retiree who lives in Carolina near family, I could understand peace of place and beauty to be found nearby.

Thank you Verna for your thoughtful and encouraging review. Thank you too for the special sixth star.
You can't beat being near family wherever they are but it's nice that it's in the Carolinas :))))

Comment from Willie P. Smith
Janet, this is very well written. It is also my kind of poetry. I favor poems of love, God and nature. This with the accompanying picture, kinda sucks
the reader into the scenery. Very well done.

Comment from RGstar
'Contentment lies' is the secret.
How could one not be content in experiencing what you have just written. The imagery here is endless. I thought at first, I hope not too many adjectives, but it flowed in nicely, and balanced out well.
Colours of happiness to the fore.
A nice poem Janet.
Good to see you writing well.
Have a good weekend.
My best wishes.

Thank your RG for your always encouraging review. I learn so much from your writing and often read through one of your poems as I'm writing. Your phraseology and word choice is inspiring. I'm so pleased that you liked this one and appreciate the 6 stars. You are a blessing to me.
Hope you have a good weekend and Happy Easter my friend.
