Juno and Jupiter

Juno and Jupiter
watch over me

tidal waves
hurricanes
roiling sea

my little boat
floats on hope

as Juno and Jupiter
watch over me

What a sweet thing to say :)

[Alistair (Ali)]

Nicely done!..both easy and eloquent..really refreshing,..free of the burden of complexity, which, to me, makes wonderful, universal poetry.

Nice One!!

[Dr. Wood ?]

See NOW I know they are your dogs this poem becomes better....Trust in dogs as they trust in you..Great write

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

Well then I must say you are in good hands.

A sea of hope under a star-jeweled sky, quietly lighted by a soft moon that shines down her rays like a blanket of love. I don't know the meaning you meant with this poem (it could have many--that's one thing I like about it,) but the images alone that I saw reading this are wonderful

[Kaylor Mason]

Oh. They were your dogs? I didn't know that. Well . . . uh, cool. Sounds like you love them very much (sorry about the one that passed on). They're just like family, aren't they? Dogs are wonderful [Though to be honest, I'm more a cat-lover myself]

[Elizabeth]

Lol. Not at all implied by the piece that they are my dogs. I left that out on purpose- they were named for the Gods, so I wanted that to be the bit that came through.

[That_Guy]

How can you be a cat person!?!?!? sorry to interrupt but...come on!!!

[Elizabeth]

Lol! We're bullybreed people- but it takes all kimds :) be sweet!

[Elizabeth]

*kinds. Damn phone

[That_Guy]

haha no doubt

[Kaylor Mason]

I'm a cat person because cats are elegant, refined predators. They're better hunters, and they're loners--all admirable qualities, in my view. I've got a cat, her name's Shadow . . . she's the absolute most beautiful feline I've ever seen. Solid black cat, with emerald eyes . . . she's like a miniature little panther, and just as ferocious :) That little girl is a fighter, believe me ;)

as only those siblings could

Props for getting the Roman reference. My dogs names... so also a nod to my little loves.

[That_Guy]

i prefer mythology to today's theology for sure. That's cool, my dogs are some of my favorite things in my life.

:) Jupiter passed on last year and it broke my heart. And Juno is my new little love. No one knew where their names came from.

[That_Guy]

aww I'm sorry. one of dogs was put down about a year ago, it wasn't easy... I love the names.
