Ph: Life: World's End Comments

come on, Brian. i KNOW i sent a comment on this many, many months ago, didn't i? maybe it was in another lifetime. this is a fine poem. thanks for sharing. i shall [actually i already have] add this to my/our October showcase for PH poets which can be found in my list of poems on PH. [a separate message has been sent to you regarding this poem] to MyPoemList it goes. bri :)

Oh so Brian is indeed happy after there was a prophecy that the world would come to an end and never came? ha! Well, as for the end of the world, the Bible has stated unambiguously that, no man knows this, not even the angels, but Him alone. It's often disappointing to hear some one who claims to know this and even goes ahead to give a specific date, just like the arrival of a president in parliament. As a matter of fact, i was stunned when I read your first line in the first stanza and was immediately relaxed when you offered a calm statement to pacify my soul But don’t freak out for it was long ago. Another interesting thing is the lady you were dreaming of although you have not yet met her. Ha! I have been wondering and laughing here, how was that possible, how do you dream of a lady you have not yet seen? Near forty minute drive to nearest farm As well, where lived a girl my age it seems, As soon as I discovered this, though yet unmet, Her aspect soon was fodder for my dreams. This knowledge occasioned visit to her farm Our very next road trip to town for supplies And was she a cute farmer’s daughter With skin smooth as cream and mischievous eyes. Then I quickly remembered what wine can do(jokes) . Who knows if your roof was on fire while dreaming. haha! In all, it is a great poem and it still reminds me of the end of the world someday. Great piece!

Your story kept me on the edge of my seat. The end of the world! How many times that has been predicted - and always by some enlightened preacher, or so he believes. Very entertaining and well done, Brian. How could the world end when there are still so many wonderful poems flowing from your pen! Never fear - just keep us well supplied with those little gems you write.
