Your Purity

Your purity brought me to
shame
etching tiny wrinkles
of conscience to brow.

I then knew
the next poem
must be about worshipping
the only One many
will not claim.

Thank you for gentle fear,
rebuke mirrored
the fearless Lover
after all.

    i think this is a good way of expressing your shame on another. i dont think you mean it to be cruel at all but more hopeful than anything else. i think this one is about god. thats how i purcieved it and the fact that ppl dont believe the way they should. im not sure but the middle part made me think so.

    very good

    i think we all have felt this way about someone at least once. your devotion is manifest and as a theme concurrent in the three of your poem i've read, you're set deep in the traffic of Love. loving is a mystery and life's most essential course, herein the angels speak, mind becomes universal and i think you're already there. you clearly are a good professional. very pleasurable

    your verse touches me very much ...
    I love to read biographies of saints and sages, they are the best mirror for me ... such writings help me focus awareness on my shortcomings, which like thieves will flee once they are discovered ... this purification process (emptying the cup of the stagnant waters of ignorance) will make place to be filled with divine grace ... furtheron, qualities like compassion, patience, humility show glimpses of their faces, naturally and effortlessly ...

    a truly inspiring poem, filled with much wisdom and lucidity,
    maa

    wonderful as always

    cookie zeal a talent
    true and rare
    to find a glowing tribute
    could never be fair
    her words flow like honey
    from her writers heart
    the muses bow in hushed reverance
    to her poetic art

    Wonderful sculpture

    "Your purity brought me to
    shame
    etching tiny wrinkles
    of conscience to brow."

    This is picture perfect. And yes, thanks and praise to God where lest our conscience grow numb and we have not the ability to repent and grow in Love. Contrasts can be quit lovely and exciting in there provocation.
    Love this piece,

    It would not be love to turn a blind eye to folly. When we are shown that true love we rebuke ourselves . . . bright lights make sharp shadows.

    Excellent. Many will claim that!

      Your response will lead to a poem. Loved the "bright lights make sharp shadows".

      Thank you so much. Warmly,
