I enjoyed this poem. It's full of spiritual meaning delivered with on a breath.
I've been searching my memory, trying to find the right literary term for the form. Free verse, but its form on the page? It’s beautiful.
It has been about thirty years since the tutor touched on it, so unless someone tells me- I'll wait patiently until I step into that ‘larger life’ 😁

I really liked the flow of this poem. It expressed in an eloquent way the gift of patience.

Quite nice but the form and body of the piece loaded with the ''topic'' [mentioned six times] is intriguing.
This is a lovely piece with a profound message. You did a nice job of writing on topic, although I don't think you needed to use the topic word as much as you did because you painted a picture of patience. I noticed you repeated a lot of words (time, space, life. Sometimes repetition can be brilliant in a poem, but sometimes it can feel like a filler. I realize punctuation and capitalization is an individual choice in poetry, but make sure you fully understand why you make the choice you do and it fits with your intentions. Poetry isn't my favorite genre, so I can't really give a opinion about how it works. Some seemed random, but I'll be the first one to admit I don't always understand poems. You do a nice job of bringing the poem full-circle. I can feel your desire to share your message with others and that left me smiling.
