The spiritual vibes resonates. The awakened souls are sensitive to words of gratitude and repentance to almighty. I'm glad The spiritual poems are still appreciated although not by many. All thanks to wicked world's no God theories. Sad, but a bitter reality.
Thank you for appreciating the poem.💐

Hi Bryony, welcome to WriteOutLoud! Thanks for your comment on 'Greenland', was a bit of an experiment that one but I'm glad you enjoyed.

As for what you said about 'Untitled Pillows' that's one of the joys of writing poetry; bottling up those bittersweet or somewhat uncanny memories and then being able to revisit them if you choose. Looking forward to reading more. 😀

As usual, Stephen, your famous poem has hit the nail on the head. Fame used to be the by product from the work one did or the role one performed. Nowadays fame, itself, is the spur!
I really want to read your advice poem, too. Go on, Stephen. Go on line 😀👍

Hiya Nigel Thanks for sending in the audio of 'who's knocking at the door' I really enjoyed it and it was fab that you read it ☺ I emailed your son about it instead of you by mistake. I was away and needed to reformat your audio file.

Anyway we'll broadcast it this Sunday on Allfm.org after 3pm 🎉

Thank you, Clare, for the comments on my poems. This is for you:

MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE

“When you .set sail for Ithaca, wish for the road to be long, full of adventures, full of knowledge.” CP Cavafy


Curlews cry, an Aegean sky: a boat
lifts and falls. The heat of noon, a lethargic
gloom, she's tracked with light this star-struck night.

Moon-shadows cast, it's cool at last, this sweep
and swell, this road to hell. This ship's becalmed
with false alarms, this attic night of bone-white light:
no palimpsest, no Grecian zest.

A sapphic wind balloons the moon, fans the fog's
penumbra, spreads this shadowy gloom. The ship's horn
sounds, these hung penumbras,
this
scattered light.

This haven isle, this Sapphic home,
these cliffs, these stories, this all alone; this fog-horn
fright, these brittle bones, this scattered light,
this all alone.

1992
