This was a wonderful take on the subject of dust. I liked the upbeat feeling to this. Loved that you described the first light as gray then it turned silver. Very vivid to me. Loved this. Great job on your poem. Gretchen

JLR, I'm a rhyming poetry writer, however this is absolutely beautiful.
I read it three times and with each read it got better. What a unique and
beautiful way to describe God's creations. Exceptional in every way.

What a powerful poem about the power of God and our creator. You put so neatly and it's so full of positive spirit. I like all the alliteration in the poem, too.

Well done.

I really liked reading this. I can picture the moon a big gold circle letting lose gold dust down to he surface. This flows well and was a great read. Well done.

Your cub poem was well done, JLR. I enjoyed reading it. This
format seems to be your forte. Your words flowed smoothly
with some alliteration and they created great imagery. I liked
the story told of the creation of the Earth, moon, and stars.
The use of the gold font for the words gold was clever and
made an impact. The picture was beautiful and supportive of
your well-chosen words.
Thanks for participating, Jan

This is a lovely way to describe creation and we are all made of that star dust. I especially liked "a resounding bang rang " which I took to refer to the "Big Bang" theory. Great response to the Free Verse challenge!

This is a beautifully worded poem, JLR. The text is a great size for reading. The message is comforting even to a pessimist like me. I enjoyed reading it. I love your use of the word numinous. I have only two suggestions that you MAY consider. Firstly, in lines two and three you use devoid and void. Perhaps find another word for one of them so it's not a repetitive area. Secondly, since you use the word gold in your poem twice, I would make the text gold or yellow. That color also would match perfectly your fabulous golden moon. Good luck with your club entry.

Very interesting poem! Your descriptions are bang on and the presentation is perfect as well. Enjoyed reading it very much. I really liked the part where you say, "God, in his numinous presence..." I have to admit numinous was not in my mental dictionary but will be now, so thank you for that and thank you for posting!!
