Hello there ruwth This is a
I am also reviewing your poem as a judge at "The Bard's Hall Contest" Thank you for entering the quotation poetry Prompt for May. Silken threads of a lifetime are woven within the lines of your poem. Silk is famous for its softness, yet those strands of thread are made of very strong material. It is the nature of silk to be soft and tough. A woman's lifetime is portrayed in this poetry. She marries, has children, suffers the pain of divorce and life heading into old age. Observation: "A young woman wed." [weds] My Thoughts: I think its a blend of sadness and sweetness, for although she was left alone to raise her children, they returned to care for her when she needed it. She will not die alone but surrounded by love. And that's a beautiful thing. What I loved: "Adjusting to change takes time..." Great choice of words, such a powerful refrain! Parting Thoughts: There is so much serenity that I could imagine from the words of this poem. I don't mean that she had an easy life, no, not at all. She had long moments in time where she was all alone, until she got too old to care for herself. She accepted every part of her life with grace. She was rewarded by the loving-caring of her children and grandchildren. Lovely! You did a fine job with your interpretation of the quotation prompt. Well done! Until next time--write on!
