Talia, This is a follow up. I’ve since observed with great delight and admiration the breath and scope of your poetry with its sweeping multilingual appeal as it embraces and harmonizes its lyrical message in concert with the cornucopia offerings of nature. Such a delightful pleasure! more »

Thank you Talygarza for your continuous inspiring remarks; most appreciated.

I enjoy tremendously your ‘Barriers’ poem and particularly the opening line of the third stanza which reads “The barrier of thought can affect our well-being.” How true indeed. This assertion of yours is in accordance with the overall sentiments of the poem, “The Thought That Lingers: Part Twelve” which I have just shortly posted on line. This series of poems of mine concerning “The Thought That Lingers” consists altogether of twelve parts. I hope you get a chance to read Part 12, and all the other parts as well.
Once more let me express my joy at the liberating sentiments expressed in your poem.
Our customs, habits and cultural differences make it so difficult, if not impossible, to live without barriers. more »

An In-depth Reflection of Who We Are as Humans

Where there is war, pray, let us sow love.

So poetically charming and heartwarming!

The classical myths intersect every aspect of human behavior. They provide invaluable insights about both our frailties and our achievements overcoming obstacles. They are the stuff by which we live, breathe, and have our being. more »

Hubris when elevated to its greatest heights impels us to our lowermost depths.

An old biblical tale of human frailty expressed brilliantly in Ezekiel 36:26.

Powerfully metrical in its romantic message. And linguistically clever. Bravo!

From one octogenarian to another: Well done, thou good and faithful servant!”

Thank you for your candor which is so rare to find today.

The hidden mystery of the Holy Spirit

For poetic correspondence, see my tanka poem, “Our Alignment With the Planets.”

A limerick that is a puzzle. Clever!
