Beatitudes of beneficence, simply cast out to a weary world.

A most beautiful benediction, Jude, brought this evening on the rising colours of my heathland winds clattering at the window panes. This most certainly soothes and cools me off after a week of feeling a bit "lost", trying to get to the bottom of a mystery, fever-based illness my daughter is undergoing tests for currently: could be malarial, could be a Kenyan amoeba or Lyme's Disease from a Scottish tick-bite she suffered a few weeks' ago. I'll read her this poem and see what happens! :)) Ta everso.. I'll try to keep dancing... xx

Absolutely Beautiful, keep it up!

I totally agree w/Andy, Jude ... It reads like a prayer. Beautifully written and very moving ... hugs

to see and experience such things takes an enlightened soul

The prayer of an artist!
I'd say brilliance, but you realise that anyhow.

Jude, your work here in this poem is the voice of stern calmness. That settles the raging soul and promotes understanding, initiates self analysis and swaddles men with compassion's voice. Well said my friend. May peace and love be yours this day. Jon Michael

the world of dreams and reality often come so close to converging that it is often like we awake to the dream and go to sleep to reality. You capture the wishes and desires of many...

This will inspire even the most jaded! Splendid work Jude!

Better than a Thai Massage Parlour! Very soothing indeed!!!!

Let The moment of clarity
shine as bright as that rainbow,

Let the distant shore
seem less distant,

Let there be no more foggy dreams,
only a reality filled with clarity.

Let all fear and doubt
melt into the sea to be abandoned forever!

See, you always inspire me to write,
I couldn't help but add to you most exhilarating poem,
that shines with renewed hope and peaceful energy.

A stellar poem, Jude, glorified within your grounded
world. So good to read you, I surely miss your golden words.

Much peace, light, and love,
Amber

beautifully written

Yes we have to remember why we are here and what the mission God has set for us.

Soothing images paint this page, Jude, as you call for the goodness of life to bless each of us who take a moment to absorb your words. Thank you. This was very lovely and rich with the texture of life. Your words suggest that all is not right with the world but that through human kindness and understanding, things can be nearly perfect.
Take care,
Sherry

This is much like a prayer and has a sense of calm and peacefulness.
A refreshing write!

Jude, this is so lovely and so calming....beautiful, beautiful work

this one is a delightful reading

This caught my mind and senses alike ~
Clear images of peace in many hues ~
Blessings,

Here is the brilliance of a calm mind, Jude, and its tolerant wisdom.

The structure of this is Jungian...in totality this is movement of the complete people, the unpegging of tents and yoking of oxen in search of grass. There is an aggregate of many separate voyages here...in my mind, there is a sense of tribal unity and mass migration to understand what we have built paralleled by contrasts between the ancients and the moderns...it soothes the mind in terms of itself with aspects of the external world and outlines a course if we so choose to take it. Furthermore, I think this piece is a design for medieval tapestry and along the way of this century, it alludes to Jungian lucid Dream conscious. There's spiritual inheritance and loyalty here of which we preserve our differences, sharing the love. Multidimensional possibilities articulated, positive and creative...

Very nice Jude, I like the progression and the pictures I painted from your ending.
Thanks for sharing.

Bob...and let the gods of poetry see this as one of your best...ed
