I've had a bad morning and a even worst night. I'm grumpy and I have the sudden urge to snarl. After reading this poem, I've chilled out. I'll drink my coffee and wait for the energy to hit. Your poem has helped spread a little love. An that is a wonderful thing. Your words have the power to make a stressed out mom smile. Now that's power!

Comment from Toney
Yes I liked your ottava rima poem. I could feel the meaning of love flow in those thoughtful and composed lines. I think I also liked your poem's intoduction. The beginning of your poem really set the stage for the rest of the lines to follow. Keep up the good work.

Comment from Glasstruth
Having Worked at Lockheed Martin and writing "Love is the Cure!" is quite a statement. Like the abab rhyming, flows, and isn't forced at all. Shows that love is the way, yet we stray so often. Well done! Les

Thank you Glasstruth. I love my country too, enough to ensure it's well defended.
Comment from jaliscomel
Well done. A difficult form to work with but you have carried it off. The normal rhythm for this type of poem is iambic and you have interspersed that with anapestic which tends to give a somewhat sing-song rhythm. I love the message and agree wlholeheartedly.

Thank you much Jaliscomel. Yes, I didn't I tend it to be iambic.
Comment from Indie Skreet
this is beautifully written and well deserving of the six I still do not have. Not an original message in truth, but one put in an original way. I particularly like the line, 'where eons of hatred as tensions swirled', even though I think should read 'swirl'? This poem shows a good heart - one I see so rarely in a man, so it gets my vote :) best wishes Indie

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
This is lovely, Treischel, a beautiful poem for your daughter and grandchild. There is nothing as wonderful as a mother's love, (and father's!) This would have made a brilliant contest entry as well. Your words are such a pleasure to read, they just flow delightfully down the page, there is a lot of love mixed in with thew words! :) xsx Sandra

Comment from country ranch writer
a mothers love there isn't nothing to compare. The closeness is always there with a Mom and her children Even if they are far away you think of them every day.

Thank you so much country ranch writer for the review. There is nothing more powerful than a mother's love that I've ever observed. For sure!
