Thank you so much Suresh Kumar Ek for your most beautifully expressed comments sir. For how well you phrase them and I firmly agree. For a poet's potential, any poet for that matter, is truly infinite. I thank you again and I wish you well sir.
Thank you Rose Marie for another most gracious comment. I'm happy that a great and world class poetess makes time to revisit and reread said poem. And I took direction and drew inspiration from Lodigiana's earlier wonderful and heartfelt comments and expanded on them and dovetailed in the new stanza's. And again I thank you so much. Take care
Lodigiana it was the very least I could do for you. For your poetry is inspiring by your originality, is so eclectic and so beautifully written. I am in awe of your poetry and I'm glad its that way. Shaun.x.

It is now yours to cherish, share with like minded good people as you and keep forever. Simply dedicated to you for all your unique and wondrous poetry. What more can I now say. Except thank you.

I think you have wonderfully articulated the true poet's vocation here Shaun. Notwithstanding, all the trivial trolls and the green eyed monsters of jealousy, the work of the true poet will prevail not just contemperaneously but throughout the ages, and all the idiots will be mere dust. It's certainly a true poets inspired ten from me!
This has now doubled in size by four more additional stanza's thanks to Lodigiana Poetess and her captivating and inspiring comments. So if you just read and enjoyed the four stanza version there's more to be registered. Oh and all those silly typo's have been removed and the grammar condensed a wee bit more, so it now flows and beats a tad better.
Hi Shaun you could not have expressed it better my friend! ..all wonders and wisdoms are within those pages, together with dreams, aspirations and life! Well written Shaun a lovely piece! lodigiana x
Excellent inspiring poem, in a poet's book, secrets are both held and revealed. but only if the timings right. by the days dawning light. You have hit a note that's so true.
