Before I Cross The River Poem by Will Barber

this is a nice poem eventhough there is smell of death

Mysterious. I don't get it exactly but I love it.

Hi Will....very thought provoking. Is the river being crossed - Death? Is the meadow -Heaven? ...like it....B

Another powerful write, great story Will, excellent read--Melvina--

I've forgotten how I got here. Probably via South east Texas. Loved this. No, I'm awed!

i see the imagery.... my mind travels through plains and mountains along riversides

A very vivid use of metaphor Will encouraging the darkened souls to take bold steps in life to rise again. A very tempting poem towards bravery with motivation so pure and so beautiful to wash out the lethargy that otherwise overwhelms the deadened minds. The essence of poem is ingrained with a very special message of gaining the glory without fear of the hurdles because the excellence has always been achieved by those who dare to believe that something inside them is far more superior than the circumstances...... Best Regards naseer

extremely ambigous and i loved it.keep on penning good stuff bro.

very well described and powerful, the use of words is brilliant!

Darn good Will, glad I finally discovered your poetry. Zen
