Good morning, DIP: My, my, my, this is another exceptional piece, DIP. I wish that I had clicked on your poetry last week. I really, really enjoyed this piece, it's deep and moving while it makes me face the truth in the world and give me deep thoughts. I love the repetition of "While I was sleeping" This was what made it all so deep and moving. It makes us all have to think about what goes on while we are sleeping. Marvelous.

Dr D,
Your poem makes a lot of sense & gives readers a lot to think about. Your lines flow well with a great message. In our socially connected world, it is hard not to think about what goes on elsewhere. I like this style for you. You did a great job. Thanks for sharing. Jan

Comment from Rasmine
Good poem for stepping outside of your comfort zone. I wonder what goes on when I'm asleep, I'm eating, I'm playing with the kitten, and so on. I wonder what is happening right now.
Who knows?
Happy New Year.

Comment from judiverse
This is powerful. It's true that there is so much bloodshed, violence, and uncertainty in the world today. What some people wake up to is horrific. We are indeed fortunate to wake up in warmth and comfort, what with all that's going on in the world. It's good to try a different writing style. This really worked for you and had quite a message. Best wishes for a happy, successful New Year! judi

You're very welcome. It makes us appreciate what we do have when we think of what people in some other countries have to endure on a daily basis. judi

I think we all test the water somewhere away from the comfort zone. The poem ask a great question. Yes, sleep in a birth place for the innocent.

Comment from Dorothy Farrell
Hi Dip, Amen! Yes, thank goodness we can escape through sleep. TV brings all these catastrophes home to us from all over the world, without ceasing. You have written this free verse really well, and the repeating of that one line is very effective. A topical subject well written. Happy New Year, Dorothy x

Comment from Dawn Munro
Outside of your comfort zone served you well, I'd say - I loved it! "While I slept" is a great concept, and the repetition here works wonderfully. In fact, I'd say this is my favorite of all your poems that I've read. Sad, but deeper than most, IMHO.

I think this is an important social commentary dear dip! You have captured something so ugly yet maintained a silver lining.
Thanks for sharing!
Blessings and a big squeeze!
