The entire universe, for each of us, is what we BELIEVE it to be! Wonderful last line: I agree completely that last lines are just as important in making one’s point as the title. ESPECIALLY if we, the readers, read through and treasure our first, instinctive responses rather than over-thinking, over-analyzing the poem. Poems, like music, are the voices of the soul. You seem to perform excellently in that function. Wonderful! Thank you.
It is funny how many people have thought so little about how little control direct control they have over what they believe and how much that affects all of their lives.
hm. the last line makes me think of a crazy girl jumping around with pom poms with her dog biting your ankles. i don’t know why but perhaps it’s because i think you see the light to insane happiness, and what i’ve just described is insanely happy. ? x
“Or so you would believe.” Good last line! π (It does seem otherwise, sometimes….)
The last line is often as important as the title.
You’re so right, Soul Walker – in fact I think it’s always just as important, if not more so! π
one day leads to another and we drift along with them xxjen
It does feel like that a lot…
