I love the "naïve eye" reference because in comparison to God's generosity and gifts of richness, we are all so naïve to the glories! The final couplet is wonderfully humble and Is the perfect finishing touch to the poems magnificence! Your brief bio does not give you full justice as the depths of all your accomplishments are mind-boggling - as are you, beautiful Lady! Karen, our Whispers' creator, has an inner sense in her poem selections to post and selecting this one of yours is no exception! Exquisite, to say the least!
