"Double Rictameter" look close at what God has created for humans the sky, clouds, sun, moon, rain, and snow the forests, streams, rivers, the oceans, seas the wild animals, birds, and fish and our beloved pets God's gifts to us look close ... closely at all this life the love of family love of a lover and friends look at our beautiful possessions the food that we eat and joys and even our grief look deep within closely ...

I've not yet written a poem in this form, but I like what you've done with it. Seems like the perfect match which helps the reader look more closely at the lines. That was brilliant, seriously. Your poem was inspirational, filled with gratitude and faith. I agree, we have much to appreciate...yet we sometimes neglect looking closely at God's creation in all its forms and circumstances. Am faving and wishing you a blessed evening, hugs, Sara
