HIGH MOUNTAINS (2 Nephi 4:25)


I’ve met the Father twice at least.
The interviews were washed in peace.
He led me up the trail by hand.
He took me to the Promised Land.

Yes, I would like to see your other draft. I assume that you mean on your website, so I will go there next. I leave for England tomorrow.

ah. you must have run out of time. so you didn't see the summer feet i posted in response to your comment, or the drafts. :-) we had the same thought about the feet of that statue and i actually took a watery picture just before you posted your comment. coincidence? we think not. lol. anyway. it's not going anywhere.

I just found your blog and I LOVE IT!!! It is great. Keep up the beautiful poetry. I love how subtly unadorned your verse is. You say what you want to say simply, yet that simplicity has levels of meaning. I especially enjoyed your parable about art.
thanks!
