Notes About The Poem

" CHARACTER " MY PHOTO, ©

May be a closeup of rose and nature

Forging One's Character

The excellence 

Of one's character is forged, 

By

The hammer of divinity, 

Upon

The anvil of Humanity!

Dear friend Demetrios, both the poetry and the flower are stunning. The intended message is still being sent to those of us who could have been reshaped. Discovering one's genuine character requires simply that one face adversity in their life.

Demetrios, Find the anvil in life, only true way to know one's character. Alas, for myself, still in the forge. True message carried still for those of us malleable. -Richard

So glad to see you again, my dearest friend, Richard. God forges us as long as we live, therefore, you are not the only one to be still forged. Thank you. Be blessed!
