The poem really is a nice piece of work. At the same time it's thoughtful and meaningful. Each line is like a perfect quote which each person should follow in their own life. For me it's really a great piece of work with thoughtful meanings.

A really amazing piece that speaks to me. I love the juxtaposition of words and sentences to give the ultimate topic of grace. This poet is an artist.

Thought provoking. Useful ways to live our lives without being complicated or entangled with today's do's and don'ts.

’ What Grace Means to Me is a profound reflection on the balance between strength and humility, ambition and contentment. :D Through a series of thought-provoking contrasts, the poem defines grace as the ability to navigate life’s contradictions with wisdom and inner peace. The rhythmic repetition reinforces its message, encouraging self-awareness and resilience. While some may find the structure overwhelming, its depth and universality make it an inspiring read. A beautifully crafted piece that challenges and uplifts the reader :o

I enjoyed reading the poem. I took it as it’s about choices. We should choose what works for us as an individual versus not choosing more than we can handle.

Suggestions?

Line 3: stocilly touch, but not oblivious to pain.
Line 4: inspired, but not dull.
Line 5: calm endurance, without agitation.
Line 6: motivated, but not indifferent.

Lines 11 and 12... mortal human, etc., sorry I'm confused. Just me of course. But, nevertheless thought provoking.

Line 14: kind, but not disingenuous.

LOVED lines, 17, 20 and 22.

Line 25: Sometimes one has to suffer ultimate outward devastation in order to find ultimate inner peace.
Line 26: In life, we're not always able to control hitting actual rock bottom. The good news? One can only go UP from there!

Finally, the last line is my current state of being!

Great, thought provoking piece... :wink:

I love it! There are times when it is hard to find balance. This poem is a reminder of how we can live a better, more balanced life. It's a thoughtful and sensitive poem, and resonates with me, as I really am at rock bottom at the moment. Yet in taking steps to turn things around, I am seeing possibilites that I hadn't considered before. Thanks for posting a beautifully written and very graceful poem!
