Comment from WalkerMan
In this well composed Refined Trijan REFRAIN, the first stanza reflects the joys of childhood innocence. The second stanza lauds the worthiness of the "tapestry of highs 'n lows" as life's pendulum swings "'tween timeless love and grief" because of the free choices we learn to make wisely. The third stanza tells us that a smart choice is to love those we meet along the way, thereby sharing God's grace leading to the "life worth living" we all crave. Superb, and provokes deep thought.

Comment from Douglas Goff
This was very nice and the photo only added to your lovely vision.
My favorite stanza due to its natural flow:
Life's pendulum so quickly flows
'tween timeless love and grief.
Weaves tapestry of highs 'n lows
in fine-laced golden leaf.
This is well-done and presented.

An excellent post Susan, oh yes, love will always triumph, it is eternal, nothing can rule over love, it is above the law impervious to defeat, a solid rock in a Sandy desert, a beautifully written trijan refrain, well done, a terrific post, blessings Roy

Are usually do not review a post that has only two cents and one point in the pay off, but I am so glad that I did read your work. Your work is beautiful. I wish you had been able to give more cents for the writing. I feel if you could've promoted it more you would've gotten many more reviews. Patricia.

Hello Patricia, I just posted this last night. I?m just logging on this morning because I had a minute. Honestly Pat, I hardly ever thing about the "pay off"? heck I?m still reading Deans work simply because it?s magical and he?s been gone for some time now. But your point is taken. I could promote this one. Thank you for taking a look at this :) very much appreciated.

Magnificent poem in a new form to me. The overcoming with love theme takes it over the top. A poetry gem, beautifully composed and illustrated, my friend.
Sending you my best today as always,

Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
This is a very well crafted and beautiful verse which I thoroughly enjoyed reading! Your story unfolds like life itself and the flow and rhyming pattern give a great sense of cohesion to the reader's journey. Your imagery enriches but is not overdone (cluttering the words and masking the message). It's a very fine piece, undoubtedly worthy of winning a contest. Well done, Susan! Debbie
