Nice Estory I like how you remind us of many things and
As twisted and defaced as this world has become, we still had our moments in this place God created for us. We still had our joys and moments of glad grace,
Gert

I like this poem. As I read down the page, line after line of wonderful things, there is still the mind-hook from the initial two lines that colors everything else and triggers a bit of melancholia. Wonderful poem.

    Thanks for the excellent review and I am glad I managed to get across that sense of melancholy over a world that contained so much joy for us estory

I really enjoyed reading this lament on all the things that would
be missed if the world ended today. So many beautiful moments
and things that leave impressions on the mind and soul. I
appreciated all of them - except
- Girls at a party trying to catch your eye.
Now a handsome man is a different story ;-)
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful read. ~DD

Love that in your notes...'the eye of a needle.' Very perceptive.
I love this one too...SO many things to miss.
Music, I'll miss music, books and libraries.
Red galoshes and umbrellas...I'll miss oatmeal-raisin cookies.
Love this, just too beautiful.
Blessings...

You've pointed out of lot of good things still around. Maybe we not ready to give it all up just yet. Things could get so bad before that final curtain that we wouldn't be able to conger up any good memories. If things are a wonderful in the next life as we've been led to believe, we likely won't be longing for what we've left behind. I enjoyed reading this.

    Thanks so much for the excellent review and you brought up an interesting point that I thought about while writing this; will we miss this world, or won't we? While we're here, though, I thought of all the wonderful moments here I guess I will miss. I wanted to capture that sense in this piece. estory

A nice list poem. Makes me want to list a few more things, both of nature and man made.

The poem has a good pace. The words flow well. The list ends without really ending. The poem stays on point.

Suggestion:
My only suggestion is to use a ellipsis at the end of the poem to further suggest that the list continues.

Thanks for sharing. A good read.

Nicely done. There is one thing that will remain. "The stars glittering in the far off Milky Way" will still be there, though there will probably be no one on Earth to see them.

In this poem you have listed things we should remember to thank God for but usually forget. They all do make our life better. Thank you for sharing this with us. I enjoyed reading.

    Thanks for the excellent review and I like that point you made about how much we take all this for granted. I think I wanted to capture that sense as well in this poem. estory

I enjoy reading this poem and hate the forecast. I really hate to loss these beautiful things you pointed out in the poem. You did a great job to make us sad by pointing out the beautiful sunset, ocean, wine, apples and parties.

I sincerely wish we will keep some of them but most of them will be virtual :(.

Well done.
