poems guide our essence, poem is the soul of our life-body. It is the absolute truth, very fine sir, I am grateful for your comment. I respect you always.
I simply loved the poem, there is nothing like poetry to resemble life in words, to capture beauty, to walk in insecurity and to list the uncertainties in life and cradle life's charms.

This is my favourite stanza, it is extremely evocative and ends in open lines as if to evoke a response in the reader. Take a bow Mr Johnston
Hi Brian, Thank you first for your comment on my poem. I loved the revisited Impossibly High Standards even better than the previous. There were some additional change to the previous which only complimented the poem further. How lovely to know that you were once teaching physics? ? in one of our schools. I'm sure the students there would have appreciated your teaching. Thank you once again and yes I shall keep on reading you as time permits me.
