Family of My World

Sweet pleasures kindle a family of hearts whispering amen for ripples of affection on homely broths, glazed with smiles to wrap dawn and night-time into a vessel of holy gifts, spilling naturally for all roofs across continents: blessings of life's harvest shared fully, far richer than ancestral sprouts birthing rapture of universal wholeness , so divine. And this my neighbor's colony meshes like one tree: spirits content as a world bows to the giving, the loving, the tender yearning of kinship near or far. On my lane ,I greet a couple next door wrapped under an umbrella in the rain... that by sending them my light, my prayer; I feel a connection with everyone illuminating unified kindness which bequeaths days more ethereal than sunset’s silent intent. Mystic Rose's Contest Who Is Your Neighbor 9/13/2015

I am moved by this all- encompassing poem. Whenever I visit a state for the first time, or go abroad, the comfort of feeling accepted by dwellers make feel I am part of their own world. Isn't that heavenly?

Beautiful, Nette. I love your take on this theme...that the term neighbor is not measured by proximity but by connection defined by our humanness. All the best in the contest! huggs!

This poem is well written and presents an original viewpoint of a woman experiencing a flood of emotions while pondering a universal spiritual connection to other souls. Emile.
