Nobody

My poems do not have
a face and voice -- 
I sign them, Nobody, by choice.
As Emily suggested -- no difference
in blue and red? They are both
colors, and all are God – so,
Nobody, is my humble pod…
Content being, Nobody~ in the greater 
fold of God.

Bill Baker Date: 7/17/2025 9:53:00 PM To God be the glory! my friend. Humble way of looking at this topic. We do tend to get caught up in the names of people instead of the meanings within their poetry. Blessings, Bill Login to Reply Joe Dimino Date: 7/18/2025 6:37:00 PM Hi Bill; I really do write to serve. The little I can do. I hope what I write is mostly helpful. Thank you, Bill. Blessings.

Valsa George Date: 7/15/2025 9:08:00 AM This is great humility. Being satisfied with what one has and not aspiring to be above everyone else is something unusual in a world of selfishness and greed. Before God, we are nobody, but he deems us precious! Great sage like thoughts, dear Joe.

Andrea Dietrich Date: 7/12/2025 1:14:00 PM Even your short poems are not short in meaningfulness. Well done, Joe Login to Reply Joe Dimino Date: 7/13/2025 6:25:00 AM Thank you, Andrea; I appreciate your encouragement. Whatever insight I have I try to put into a work. So, if a work fails, it is never for lack of trying. Blessings my friend.

Ink Empress Date: 7/12/2025 7:24:00 AM This is such a deeply meaningful poem dear joe, we all are children of God, name and skin of color or religion doesnt matter, what matters is how we connect on a soul level, and you do that with an open heart so well, and you spread kindness and light just selflessly, we need more in this world who would think the same, and prioritize not the name or face or anything else but traits of a poem, a poet and more! Soulful poem this is! I felt this so very deeply! Pleasure visiting you today! Sending you light alwayz Login to Reply Joe Dimino Date: 7/14/2025 5:45:00 AM Thank you, Empress; a very wise and beautiful comment. It is sort of like, giving one's self over to Christ. The non believer, the uninitiated, thinks it could be losing one's personality...as opposed to becoming the greater that we are. I believe the latter.

Hiya Sharma Date: 7/12/2025 6:12:00 AM Finding everything that the soul desires in the quiescence of nothingness, that's true art, dear Joe! I can feel the spiritual depth of your words to my hearts cores ~ your poems always have a unique sense of peace etched to their profound meanings that help connect a person with the brightest light of Almighty. "My poems do not have a face and voice" But they indeed reflect your pure heart! Absolutely stunning! Always a pleasure reading your magical poetry. Sending light and best wishes!
