Trust The Evening Star Comments

A thought-provoking musing on life and death. Yes, everything comes to an end. Full of insight n wisdom.10

As people who are getting older, we should be glad that our exit will clear the way for those to come. In our small way, we are benefitting from planetary cycles, and I hope we are somehow participants. I like your overarching use of the word TRUST: we trust the morning/evening star as a marker of time; we also trust that breath and life are but a moment's grace, and they are all the more precious for that. Your choice of words is good: I think this is something worth trusting in.

Reading your poems is always a treat for the readers. This poem also reveals some of the most common realities of nature as well as our life. All good things must come to an end without any exception. Thank you, Barry.
