Do geese view goD
On every silver clOud as they

Glide on soft winGs
Ever closer to thE
Edges of heavEn?
Somehow it seemS
Effortless to admirE

Such a concept aS
Exhilarative and dElightfully,
Exquisite in naturE,


Giving us all,the Grandest
of opportunities tO
Divulge in lovely Daydreams.

Debbie,

Excellent! ...and I thought you said you had writer's block. You chose a very difficult means by which to break the block and you succeeded beautifully.

BTW, thanks for the welcome back.

Marge,
Thank-you, Writing this type of poem is kind of like creating a jigsaw puzzle isn't it?

Krawdad,
Thanks, I'm looking forward to reading your "Double Trouble" when it's finished!

Gene,
Thanks for the words of encouragement, this was really a challenge!

You've painted some beautiful images with these words, my friend. This one deserves a wonderful grade!

Kethry,
Thanks, I'm usually the one who says, IWIWT!  It's not to often that someone says that to me!
I appreciate the encouragment!

Lovebug,
I'm glad that you liked it, now about that grade...How well do you know the teacher?...

Debbie what a wonderful poem and I love the way how you cleverly turned it into a 201.

Thanks Munda,
Now what is missing to make this a genuine 501?  Is it because it's not formatted?  Or is it formatted? (I don't know)
I sure hope the next lesson is easier than this one was! LOL!

Debbie - This is done beautifully - I do know that Geese touch the sky - so they MUST see God... Very nice theme, indeed... and don't count on the next assignment being easier - though I haven't a clue what it'll be yet..
