Great use of the blank form cadence Teresa. . .it reads through like a dream :-)
And the message is a wonderful analogy for the burgeoning of life and growing into the fruition of spreading new seeds of life :-)

Nice write!

A good unusual take. I like the way you identify yourself in personalizing or making reference to the plant. This poem of faith depicts the many ways we are able to transcend and allow inner strength for the higher power to be professed.
Elements of old , using the ocean and land with the quenching of thirst patterns of phrases frequent in Elizabethan and religious poems of that era.
Good write,
RG

A metaphorical reflection on our place in the Cosmos - and our relationship with the God of the Universe - sometimes we forget how significant we are

blank verse - iambic pentameter "Seeds of Life" This is a very good poem you have created here. I like the way you show the seed planted and the growth of it to reach the heavens up above. Well done.

I love the imagery of the seed and the ocean scattering the seeds across the lands. Great metaphor. The theme was wonderful and visual. nicely done. Good luck with your writing.

This poem sounds like a missionary's vows to God. The calling to spread the word of God. To give to another by whatever means is your passion that also gives back to you. Feels good to reach someone that is troubled and be of some help. whether through the word of God or with the current information that will make a difference for this person in need.

Good debatable topic. whatever fills your soul is your way, I say.

Hello there~!
This truly is a well-written poem. It deserves a six, especially for the second paragraph. It's what life's about!
Sorry though, I don't have any sixes left.
But great job!

JazakAllah Khair~!
(God Bless~!)

Hi. I am (almost back). We are at the mother-in-law's and then tomorrow drive home.
Just checking in while I have a connection.
Good job on this style, it is not easy to get right...and you did get it right.
It is a good style for this message, it moves softly and still makes a point.
Hope you are well,
padumachitta

I did feel a sense of the dramatic in this poem along with the evangelical desires of the writer. I thought it was well written with efficient meter and was a cohesive idea. Giddy
