A beautiful faith poem Brooke written in perfect rhyming quatrains. Each stanza builds to the last which is my favorite. Good luck in the faith poetry contest.

An excellent poem for the Faith contest, Brooke. As always, your rhyme and meter are perfect, and your poem is enjoyable when read out loud. Your messGe of giving thanks is one we should do more often.

Comment from boxergirl
Great job, Brooke, with your rhyming quatrains about faith in God's creation. Faith that even on a cloudy day we can remember all His creation and know that he is and will always be there. 8-)

Comment from Sarah Butterfly
Very good entry into the contest. Solid rhyme used.
Reads very fluently. Not too short and not too long, just the right length.
The poem fits the contest topic.
Very well done. Good luck in the contest!
Kind regards
Sarah

Comment from Donna McNaughton
Quatrains are definitely a strong point of yours. I like the way you convey the passage of time, the before and afters and the now, all with humility. Very nice entry for the faith contest. Good luck.

Comment from Domino 2
Excellent declaration of your faith, without being preachy, Brooke.
Especially different as you look back when there was virtually nothing, and you even make creation of life fun by saying God thought he had a space to fill.
Also good, perhaps in metaphor, that despite 'gloomy days', you believe the 'weather' will always change for the better.
Very creative, and I'm not referring to God. :-)
Cheers, Ray

Ray, thank you, my friend. I appreciate that you don't find this preachy :-) Brooke

Nothing more off-putting to me than being lectured (preached) at, Brooke.
Everyone is entitled their own opinions on everything, but my back goes up when they try to ram their opinions down my neck - especially from their perceived high moral ground.

I couldn't agree more, Ray - right after serial killers and child molestors, self righteous people are my least favorite.
Comment from RYME4U
Beautiful thought, Great rhythmic flow of words in these quatrains.Very descriptive of an "empty" world . Well presented. The ending is something we should all do...give thanks.
