A very well-written acrostic poem about imaging a better world than ours hiding behind the sun where everything is better than what we experience on our world.

This is a great acrostic for your word choice of today Craig. Your presentation is super--love the colors, the picture, the contrast with the first letters with the rest of the phrase, and most of all, your awesome & true message. Great job & thanks for sharing. Jan

Comment from Janilou
Can you envision some far world in which
Humanity respects and values life?
The good of all is their religion's pitch
How can it be they do not know of strife?
Actually, funny you should mention that. :-) I can imagine it, and I only wish we human beings on earth would realize how pointless our wars, disagreements and battles for control are.
I have written a fantasy novel called "Julu" and in the land of "Jirvania" these lines of your poem ring true. Now if we could just get this world to understand that.
Excellent poem.

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
What a fascinating speculation and I did not know there was a word for it! I love the artwork which looks imaginary, yet subtle and believable at the same time. Clever words and the concept is different and thought-provoking, a clever acrostic, love Dolly x

Thanks so much for the lovely comments, Dolly.I tried to put the Greek word (which is pronounced the same as shown) in the Author notes, but the FS editor doesn't like Greek symbols, it seems lol Cheers - Craig
