Notes About The Poem

Uplift

unfreeze now, oh hermit
umbilical cords bind
unkempt is lower mind
unshackle innocence 
usher in bliss upsurge
under divine guidance
until the end of time

Hi Seeker, You did an excellent job with the letter U. Good message as well. You made it look easy. It was a challenge for me, but I managed to write something—this a good contender for the contest. Best wishes in the contest:-) Alexis

Thank you, Edward! Yes, I found U-Pleiades challenging, more so, since I wanted it different from the ones already written, while in sync with the themes I prefer to write on
