I am 88, so move over kid !
How about your first date at 16, her name was Susie, what a dozzie !
All she wanted to do was kiss !
It was puppy love, so brave and innocence !
She was an American and I was a Canadian and a river between us but that didn't stop us. That was the summer that was !

If God does not live within you, Heaven is not your home !

Your resume is almost as long as your "poem " !
A am new to poetry but like A Tennyson - The Bar, A Kilmer - A Tree or Robert Frost - A Road Not Taken for their simplicity, short and sweet to the reader !
I guess poetry has no limits !

The Road Not Taken is a classic not many can match. It's rhymes are beyond compare ! Four verses of 5 lines, the message is so very clear proving you need not a lot, to say something !

Our love pales compares to the love of God !
In John 3 : 16 - For God so loved the world
If you love God first, then life will be exceptional to others !
A life of love will be always a giving life

Teddi, now that is a unique name ! The masters of old used 16 to 24 lines to get their thoughts thru, I use 24 lines in my poems normally, sometimes 28 or 32 ! Checkout the poet laurates of old like .A Kilmer - The Tree, A Tennyson - The Bar and Robert Frost - The Road Not Taken ! Happy poeming !

At times I do not understand this world but despite that, there is room for compassion to all people who grapple with life !
I see myself in this poem, an old has been nearing the end of life.

But I am a sojourner and that has made all the difference !
Be brave and seek God's direction !

No greater love than this, then one to lay down their life for it !
Jesus did it for us for eternal life
And freedom prevails in Ukraine today as soldiers put their lives on the line to protect others ! Such love is instilled in us by God !

Such an interesting poem, I must comment again !
Remember the phrase, hanging on by a thread ?
In our lifetime, we will have many moments of hanging on !
But if you have a golden thread, God will see us through for another day !

Melissa, I share your pain as I have neuropathy too. But I am elderly and have lived my life. You are young and this is very hard to cope from day to day.
Life is not fair
Or unfair, it just is
It's how we react to life that is.
What really it is !

The miracle of seeds, when planted in good soil, rain and sun will give a vast harvest just as God is the seed and those who know Him will bear much fruit Luke 8 : 11. The seed is the Word of God !

Matt, just to let you know, your poem A Stoic Dilemma was much appreciated.
As stated I used it plus Abigail Prieto's on Life is not Fair and mine about Change. I sent all 3 poems to my email friends, acknowledging the authors. I hope you don't call this plagiarism, it was not my intent - Dougla$Irishman
