You wrote this one like a melody
that was played by angels sitting
on a cloud and the magical chords
floated down in wonderous song for
the world to hear.
Well done

This is a great spiritual poem. Love the refrain line. The message is made clear that despair will never win the fight if each dawn we awake with faith, no matter what the day before threw at us to tear it down.

Even though your poem has a special flow and is outstanding in my opinion the message is greater that "faith restores" as it is impossible to please the Lord without faith. Instilling faith into the hearts of others is the greatest mission of all. Thank you so much for lifting up faith. You deserve 6 stars for the poem.

I thought this was quite amazing, it flowed so well and has a great message about hope triumphing over despair. Not come across the rondeau style before but I thought you used the structure brilliantly without breaking the theme or style of the poem - very well done!

'My Faith Restores' is an extremely well-written and spiritually-uplifting piece. This talented poet's faith should in due time, give her God's blessed reward. It was a privilege to review a work of this standard.

Hi Brooke,

I've never told you this, but I tend to put you on a pedestal. I think of you as a shining example of what a true Christian is meant to be.

Your poems reflect your joyful and optimistic attitude about life. Your helpful and heartfelt critiques touch so many people in such a positive way. And, yes, your faith restores - constantly!

Sincerely,
Lou

Brooke,

Your poem is beautifully worded with a story that affects us all. Humans are creatures of the light, and most of us feel better on a bright sunny day than we do when it's gloomy and overcast. The metaphor is excellent, and the same principle applies to our faith. When faith sags, hope and joy can abandon us; whereas, when my faith is strong, God provides me with sunlight and joy. It is an outstanding poem, and I enjoyed it. Your visuals are superb.
Curtis

This was a great poem, Brooke. Yes, the new dawn brings a new day and new hope for me too. Some days more than others. I loved the picture and the green background. They made me think of rejuvenation.
