Beautiful, spiritual, "in-touch" writing, Jude; I love these thoughts.

Jude,

Always to the heart of the matter and barbed with singular wisdom.

Brilliant!

You offer me a glimpse here of my diminutiveness in the puzzling process of understanding the human soul and how it inter-relates with another human soul

Jude,
You've put into words that feeling one artist gets when they meet another - as if we wander the same forest. A deep perspective here.
Sheila

great verse to ponder, as poets we do share, back and forth, sometimes the distance is small and at times long

Jude,
Awesome write, I've always admired your talent!

Many blessings,
~Linda

I always love that whenever I read your work, i know the journey will be interesting, eye-opening and almost ethereal. This is so true of artists and writers.

It is interesting that we can actually think about and explore our own existence. The farther we go, the more alike we are.

Powerful stuff yet poignant! WTG Jude! I wish you the best!

E x a c t l y !:) Some call it the Holy Spirit. I sometimes call it The Great Spirit or The Great Creator. Whatever name we give it (as if it needs one), there is an existential connection between us that contains more electricity than lightning and thus gives us energy when we allow ourselves to stay (or become?) hooked to it. Not just energy, but the strength and motivation to be and do our best. Learn from and help one another! Sorry 'bout the sermonizing. Just need to remind myself now and then that no matter how ubiquitous evil is, good can and often does prevail. IF we c o n n e c t.
Thank you so much for expressing so well what I am t r y i n g .to!!!

Yes indeed!

All the universe is one, great poem Jude.

We are where we should be: penning our thoughts for others.

That presence should be very disappointed with our ways and the direction we have choose.
They said tha the real abyss have not bottom.
Hearing you loud and clear.

A wonderful write, thank you for sharing Jude.

as above, so below...
long live that universal dream and the quest for cosmic unity.

I like this one and it certainly has a lot fo validity for poets and writers. We stretch our limits each time we allow our thought processes to interact with a blank space.

Right, Jude, we're here, may as well enjoy it and share it.-gene.

I agree with Emile, you give the complexities of life ,a simple definition that all can understand. Splendid!

Dear Jude, It has been a while since we last communicated. If everyone would understand what you just expressed with simple words, everyone would care for the other as we are all interconnected. If we like it or not we penetrate each other with our body's energy, with our mind's rays, with our soul's rays, and our spirit's power. Unknowingly we influence one another constantly. Love Emile

nice, and yes we do

What a very thought provoking write. Well done, my new friend, well done. Best regards, Bonnie

Very true, Jude. Though this is the first realization before we enter the door to our cosmic connection, it is the most important step. From this point, once we learn to release the friction that keeps us from being at one with the universe, the grand spectrum of our reality will know no bounds and our outlook on life will never again be the same.
Take care,
Sherry

I agree with the message! This could be a good definition of poetic creation.

This is wonderfully created and expressed, Jude. Thank you for sharing your gift. Love and peace to you,

Regis

This is gorgeous, Jude, well done.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

Jude, I like this one a lot! We do all have this "univeral dream" as a common denominator. Religions have missed the point by trying to describe and pidgeon-hole it (they have explained it to death), but this "universal dream" is the central kernal of all religions. We imagine a time, an enlightened era, when this common seed may be known by everyone. Thanks for this one :-)
