Their dreams are always to be in peace and in wealth, but that is not life. Great monoku. Thank you for commenting on my poem, Waterfall.

Certainly not Eve, reality runs much deeper than looking up to the heavens, cheers David

When life is filled with harsh truths, we may assert that being a person of faith rather than a doubter is better. Well done, David, and I hope everything goes well for you.

I agree peoples faith can help them in times of hardship, but even the doubter will turn their eyes to heaven and say why me, probably to justify the doubt the have, thank you for your kind words, I’m doing fine Lasaad, just exploring the human condition, cheers David

Better to be a believer than a sceptic I guess. Nice job.

Heya Jan, A wordplay perhaps, with also a few juxtaposed truths embedded in there, cheers David
