Comment from A. Willow Bends
I am so sorry I am out of sixes. This is purely LOVELY and it is difficult to write a review on PERFECTION. The overall look of it, stunning. Your poem so aptly describes what the majority of the human race is feeling, but YOU did it poetically with grace and perfect flow. Excellent job.
I would point out my favorite part, but there is not one. My favorite part starts at the top and ends at the finish. GREAT JOB.

Yearning For the Good Things
by BethShelby
Hello, Beth,
I'm with you. I really would love to go to a beach for a picnic and frolicking in the sand. But our beaches in California are closed ... Sadness. Maybe they'll reopen after July 4th. Well done. I love the imagery.

Thank you so much for the review and comments. Florida is closing their beaches for the fourth. Life can still be good in spite of everything.

Comment from Suzanna Ray
Dear Beth, how poignant your words, it is like you have written the heartfelt wishes of all the millions of people who can not write or even find the words to express their need for all the things you have written down like a petition to God.
Thank You. Thank You; from All of us!

Comment from harmony13
The author's words are heartfelt, strong, descriptive and creative. I pondered on the theme of this poem as I yearn for the good things too. The poem flows and connects well. This is such a tough time.
The artwork compliment this poem well.

Comment from Marjon van Bruggen
Fantastic poem, Beth. And in so many ways I think like you. Yearning For The Good Things sums up a lot of fabulous things that conjure up so many images to make me happy. Yes! Let's enjoy all the moments we still have, and we don't have to stand still wondering how long it will last. God will take care of that when He thinks it is our time.
