For Friend Lisa Ricci, Foreground Background

The universe is in your eyes (It exists in processing; God's the background) After this life, the energy Pole - and the eyes - Allow Consciousness Pole to arise They are always together, Dear Heart! Like background ( or SPACE itself) in art As crucial as Foreground (the details, the stage) WE love the Energy Pole for love is in the eyes But then we call Space, THE Background, "DEATH." No Dear Heart, Space is the Ground of Being "Thou shalt make no idols before Me."

You have penned one of your best poems here, Anil. The contrast between background and foreground is philosophically presented. Pleased to see that Lisa read and enjoyed the poem which you dedicate to her. Also enjoyed her delightful response to you in "Rested Wings"; pity I could not comment on her poem. ~ Regards & Peace // paul

Good Morning Anil - I don't have the appropriate words to express. I am extremely touched and honored by this beautiful poem. Honestly. May your words apply to all who lend a helping hand with a pure heart especially during these difficult times. Allow me to say thank you thank you and yes Shalom Shalom

Always a pleasure Dear Poetess of PS. You are missed, but then during a global Pandemic, you continue to care for both aged parents. I failed in such filial duty, so I know something of your sacrifice (Jesus called His a pleasure to bring Glory!). Thanks for encouraging in y early days here on PS. shalom, shalom in He who will strengthen U. Anil
