I love this poem praising the Almighty! You have portrayed what I believe how anyone can not believe is beyond me. I think it's because they don't want to change their lifestyle.

This does read like a bedtime prayer, and the picture adds to that feel. I enjoyed the sincere yet light-hearted message you send about 'His" existence. It's well written with a good flow. Best of luck in the contest. deb

Tight, lives up to its name, flows nicely - I'm just a bit bothered by 'how could anybody'... sounds a bit prosaic although very logical ... don't know if this is at all helpful though.

Excellent job with the Clinquain format. I like the last two lines in each verse best, because there is a little twist of humor that does not take away from the reverence of God. The picture chosen is perfect for this poem.

I love the picture. I love the poem. It is like a pray. Yes, God is every where. He sees all and hears all. There is a little bit of him in everything that is part of world. Great work.

Your cinquains contain some insightful and intelligent reflections, capable of making the reader really think them through. You've managed to fulfil the structural requirements of this form by making careful use of enjambment [carry over of some lines]. This is a useful technique in many forms but might be seen as contrived in forms such as haiku, tanka, cinquain. You are at liberty to disagree with me, of course, and argue a contrary view. Since I'm referring to different tastes, I still think your fine writing deserves a six. Thank you for the dedication. Peter

    Hello again my friend, much obliged and thank you very much for the kind, generous review as well as the wonderful suggestion, always respect your advice, thank you.

    I feel that enjambment [some say enjambement] looks better in longer pieces, but I've just reviewed an excellent example in Mauial's latest 5-7-5. Peter

Very clever stanza one with its reference to the sea and Jonah. Then stanza two with the virgin birth of Jesus.
Even the blind have an insight--great line and very persuasive.
