Standing in the Hall of Fame
As the dark shadows of life
Through its latticed windows
We peep the patterned eternity

This is an exceptional poem, CP. Your final couplet in particular leaves the reader saying to herself: 'Now why didn't I think of that? ' You have a great gift for phrasing and the spiritual intelligence that underpins your work shines through the lines. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Your poem has has incited discussion and this is what great poetry is all about. Wonderful writing. 10 Karin Anderson
A deeply introspective piece. Are we predestined in this life experience? Some believe that, some do not. And after all, are we not products of our beliefs? No one will ever come back and give us the answers we seek, so we can only draw our own conclusions. What is life, afterall, but another level of existence, pre-programmed or otherwise. Who knows.......this could be the MATRIX!
A thought provoking piece......yes we are all pre-programmed and whether we reach the hall of fame or not....
the pain us hurt........ all are pre-programmed just they express words well knitted and ready to express..... vanish in the air.... when they suffer the same words they in take and feel the pain....... shadows of life I like the expressions.........
And after all what is God.........The eternal child, playing the eternal game in the eternal garden.........Sri Aurobindo..............Offcourse he plays at our expense...........cheers......Perhaps God is a magician who is performing in the front of the audience who are too terrified to laugh.................a good write.......
i strongly believe we are pre-programmed even b4 we touched this earth...hall of fame or defame, shadows or light are all mere illusions in this pre-programme, aren't they?
A nice one! thoughtful and meaningful all through...beautifully penned.10
