Notes About The Poem

The Glowing Sun of Spring

Down where
  The glowing sun illuminates the eastern sky
    Lemony daylilies open one more bloom
       And the mockingbird's song rings true
         Doves fly in to feed, too

Down where
  The morn is quiet
    Human activity still mostly void
       Doves sing their love songs
          Away, away they transport

Down where
   No crows seem to call warnings
      On this quiet morn
         The poet wonders about Israel
           And the Gaza strip war-torn

Down where
   Rockets are fired
     And antimissiles aim for their mark
       How noisy their days and nights must be
          How many miss their part

Down where
   Questions go without answers
      We have to trust the Divine plan is being fulfilled
         The poet knows God still loves mankind
           And desires mankind do His will

Duke Beaufort June 13, 2024 at 10:27 AM Sara, you do want to hold on to your faith and it is hard to understand what is going on in world as part of a divine plan. I don't feel the same way you do, but I respect what you think and love how you put it all together in such beautiful poetry. We can only control ourselves and others have to make their own choices. Sara Kendrick June 13, 2024 at 12:55 PM Yes, we cannot control others for sure, Duke. Sometimes we can't even control ourselves. We can pray though and prayer can move mountains. Thanks for the visit. Sara K

Andrea Dietrich June 9, 2024 at 1:33 PM Yes. It is part of a plan that has been thousands of years in the making. One day all nations will rise up against Israel. The horrors of it all have not even reached a zenith yet. I had a tour of Israel in the 70's. Most of it is ugly land and the fact so many people want to claim it seems so ridiculous to me. But it is what it is. Sara Kendrick June 9, 2024 at 10:33 PM Amazing, Out of Abraham came all these descendants but not all of are of Abraham and Sarah. Sibling rivalry gone to the max. Satan, of course, trying to destroy what God designed. Thanks for stopping by. Sara K

Ink Empress June 9, 2024 at 2:38 AM Hope amidst the chaos can be felt through your seamless write so well woven and delivered in s very poetically moving manner. I felt this. Its sad whats happening in the world today. So many being killed so many innocent children. Its very heart wrenching to see. I pray for better days for all! Pleasure reading this, sending you light Sara Kendrick June 9, 2024 at 4:04 AM Thank you, IE. It is painful to watch on TV, I can't imagine how painful it might be for the people who are living out the ordeal. Hamas should not have done what they did and are still doing, but two wrongs don't make a right. Sara K

Sotto Poet June 8, 2024 at 2:28 PM The contrasting tranquil morning sight of nature with the catastrophic reality of global strife and bloodshed is the subject of your enthralling poetry, Sara. Beauty, peace, conflict, religion, and God's design are all touched upon in passing. Sara Kendrick June 8, 2024 at 4:12 PM Thanks for such a nice review of my writing, Lasaad. Life does have some contrasts and some sad happenings right at this time in history. I appreciate you stopping by and taking time to comment. I saw on the news that the Israeli have brought home four more hostages. Sara K
