Peace #poetry #earthweal

It had been a day of strife:
wife against husband
husband against wife
then 
as if out of nowhere 
peace descended 
but it wasn’t out of nowhere 
for the wife had said a prayer
and the rising wind seemed to whisper
‘You are not alone
(for I am)
hope
is everywhere.’

A reminder never to give up hope!

I’ve a lot going on personally at the moment, so I’m not as up-to-date with reading/commenting/posting as usual. I’ll be on and off for the next week or so, then I hope to get back to my usual schedule.

Wishing you a peaceful and hopeful weekend,
Ingrid

Many thanks to James for his recent review of the book:

5.0 out of 5 stars A must read in these times
Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2021:

Each poem is beautifully presented, with sketched, classy art staggered throughout the pages. I’m so impressed with the quality of writing and the passion each poet has poured into this anthology. A truly talented group of writers who spread their light with each word.
