1. This is really beautiful, Balroop, and captures something of what I felt standing there watching the sun rise 🙂

   1. This image is so evocative! Thanks for sharing dear Sue.

      1. My pleasure, Balroop… and thank you for the poem 🙂

2. What a beautiful poem that captures the photo and life’s journey as well.

   1. Thanks Louise, Nice to see you here. 🙂

3. This is so beautiful Balroop. Your words are like music taking us by the hand and showing us the road. Inspiring!

   1. Marie, your words of appreciation are no less than music to my ears, I am delighted to note that my words are inspiring. 🙂 Stay blessed dear friend.

4. Inspiring poetry! The picture goes very well with it.

5. “Always” Mother Nature. At least for me! Aloha, Balroop ❤

   1. Yep! Mother Nature has her own messages and often they are subtle. Thank you for reading and sharing your thought, much appreciated dear Bela.

6. Indeed ‘All directions are conceding peace’ we just need to look better. Sunrises have been a source of immense inspiration for me and I absolutely loved your take on the photo prompt ❤

   1. Yes Era, what we need is a discerning eye. Our surroundings carry many subtle messages but the pace of our life doesn’t let us see them. You might like this poem too, here is the link:

      Thanks for reading and sharing your thoughts. 🙂

7. Such beautiful words to accompany a beautiful image. I love the golden light and your poem evokes that. I had to look up the word ignominious. 🙂 It was familiar but I wasn’t sure I understood it. Turns out, I did not but now I know—characterized by shame. Balroop, your use of words here are always intriguing and I like that I have to look up a word now and again while reading your poetry.

   1. Thank you so much Lisa, I appreciate the honest feedback! Some of my ideas are conveyed through symbols and words and this word hints at those soldiers who are compelled to fight just because they happened to join the forces for lack of better employment…who may be carrying peace in their heart but are sent far away from their families to fight somebody else’s battle.
      Many thanks for sharing your view about this poem.

8. Beautiful, Balroop. I love your take on the prompt. 😀

   1. Thanks Diana, Your kind words mean a lot to me. 🙂

9. Beautiful message, Balroop! Peace & love… 🙂

   1. Thanks Bette…these two words sum up all we need!

10. Yes, Mother Nature…she is so powerful yer so humble. Wonderful picture by Sue and your words fit flawlessly… 🙂

    1. Thanks Mani, all credit for the inspiration goes to the unique picture.

11. Such an apt photo to go with this poem, Balroop. It is always one more step – slow and steady, move forward and proceed on. We may feel lost when we’re working towards our goals, and sometimes the best is to follow intuition and signs along the way. Best wishes, Balroop. Once again, congrats on your new book 😊

    1. Yes Mabel, that ‘one more’ step matters…whatever the situation! If we want to move ahead, if we want to accomplish that dream, the horizon is never far…just one more step could be decisive! Often we get cowed down by the fears and warnings and the biggest culprit is our own voice, which keeps cautioning and scaring. I agree, intuition always guides very well! 🙂
       Thanks a ton dear friend for all the wishes and support. Stay blessed!

12. Beautifully written Balroop. 🙂

       1. Absolutely!

18. Transformation can be scary or wonderful. Depending how you look at it.

    1. How true! Thanks for the visit.

19. I read your inspirational poem more than once to derive new(er) meanings from the individual paragraphs. Like, the second stanza seems to hint at other worldly solace…as if a weary soul has had enough of this world. The only hope is the Godly light at the end, in the land of peace. But then, the last stanzas guide us to find peace in nature, which is this mortal earth itself.
    As usual I am wandering away…:)

    1. I am so glad at your analysis Alka, which always looks at the deeper hues…that is the beauty of poetry and I love it precisely for this reason… Any verse can be interpreted according to the mood and mind of the reader!
