Invisible hope shines with beauty of expression on face. Revisiting this poem we really very glad. An interesting poem is excellently penned.10
Thank you so much, Kumarmani. I appreciate your finding something new upon a return visit.
For Gaudi perhaps his hopes had been realized and certainly seen; his Sagrada Famiia being one of the most popular attraction in Spain and with a number of his creations being declared World Heritage sites. Your poem is most inspiring, Thank you Mj
Thank you so much, Loke. And I agree that so much of Gaudi's vision has been realized....perhaps, the dream has come true.
Invisible to others, and to our superficial self, is hope. But it lies deep within. Just waiting. For a flicker of light. Then it starts to unfold. The adventure of self-discovery has begun. And when it's over, the brilliant light will spread throughout the universe. M.J., as always, your poetry inspires. And empowers! This beauty has inspired me to empower with a new poem. I'll inform you when it's ready. Keep on writing these beauties! All The Best In The New Year! !
Richard, thank you so very much. I look very much forward to your poem. All the best for a prosperous, productive, meaningful and poetic 2018!
Hi Mark, contrast of frame and face and sprinkles of hope. hope plays the role of some secret! ! OK, let's admire the look and attitude hopefully the inner is also beautiful.
Muhammad, thank yous so very much. Indeed that real meaningful inner beauty could be that most valuable gem. Thanks again.
I feel strong and feel a bit electric in my pulse reading the spirit of this work, beautiful Gaudi building, its uniqueness, and make us feel like lets do it because we could it, just like that piece...the strong beam..Gaudi Inspired!
Wow! Thank you so much, Soul. I am so grateful to hear this poem had such an impact.
Hopes are invisible but these carry amazing essence and wisdom for us. The principal front of a building shines in outer appearance. In any place deeper beams are reflected and perception gives its inner values. Such reflection holds steel beams. Braveness is wisely expressed in this humorous poem....10
Thank you so much, Kumarmani. Great observation with respect to bravery. I wonder what facade is carried by cowardice....
This is an interesting one for me. I was intrigued by the title as I've admired Gaudi's buildings all over Barcelona. They have such interesting personality. But then you turn the reader to what is inside the beams. Hope. That is a mystery that can't be conveyed...only alluded to in the architecture outside. Thanks for sharing.
Jette, thank you so much. Yes! You got exactly the idea/effect intended.
I love the brevity of your words in this perfectly written senryu.

Beautiful Senryu, Lemon Sir. I have been several times to Anthony's art work and I am happy to see that the Spanish Government finishes the great artwork of Gaudi. Though that can always be perfectioned, but Gaudi's art is saved from rusty beams.So very pity that he has never experienced the finalizing of his immense Art. Great Senryu
Thank you for these amazing words, Sylvia. Thank you so much.
