An Invitation Comments
Come on my Love! Let us move to the East
Where the sun resurrects after his interim death
Where darkness first gives way to light
And life renews itself every morn

Let us ‘drink life to the lees' from the chalice of love, love is the best refiner it can rectify the tarries.
Enjoyed this thoroughly. You weave magic with words when it comes to describing nature and, of course, love and longing.
Wow! Valsa! A wonderful poem with beauty of nature coupled with romantic love captured my heart!
Wow! Wow! Wow! In my perception, this is a masterpiece that deserves wide recognition. It should be among the top poems on PH. One of the best love poems I have red, a new favourite. Thanks Valsa for this germ that showed me a picture of Adam and Eve mingling in the graden of Eden free from life's worries and distraction before the great tragedy occurred.
Hello Valsa. Beautifully written poem, filled with excitement, love, adventure, nature. Complete and satisfying. I enjoyed. Thanks for your wonderful review of my poem, A Tree Perspective. Loyd C Taylor
An invitation crafted skillfully with fine threads of love. It will be lover's dream come true.
A lovely if unadorned and shameless delight in nature that recalls the simplicity of youth and its exuberance. Few more senior poets could get away with 'bunnies and squirrels hop and jump' with such a lack of pretense and indeed girlish enthusiasm. The imagery is simple and yet fresh and poignant as it flows from your pen and takes the reader back to more innocent days, when love was new, friendship a crowning joy, and yet remains a hint of mature love as well as the poet speaks of the 'chalice of love.' Still nothing tops the excited utterance of the last line... 'Oh! Come on, we shall not tarry…. Let's go! ' Does even the sight of heaven's gate offer such promise, or stir the imagination so?
Your whole second stanza is a great example of NATURE as an analog of paradise, even of heaven. Of course, this is a human perception of nature which we can transcend. Nature itself is red in tooth and claw as Tennyson put it. Bur our human imaginations, our poetic mindset creates visions like your poem which lift us into a blessed appreciation of a humanized and peaceful landscape. This is the vision which restores some of those childhood perfections you put in BEFORE AND NOW. In such an enhanced environment how can we not be on our best, most generous and loving behavior? This is an invitation to be the best individuals - the angels will smile over us and God will bless us - as it should be!
Who can reject this loving invitation. You will create magic wherever you take us dear Valsa.
Inhaling night air in scented perfume, Listening to the sweet whisperings of our soul, Let us ‘drink life to the lees' from the chalice of love. Oh! Come on, we shall not tarry…. Let's go! A great poem.............10

Beautiful, Valsa, I thought I read between the lines, not only the physical east but also the spiritual east with all its wondrous wisdom and inner peace. Wonderful poem
