Author: such a lovely 5/7/5 poem! Yes, each day brings new hope, new faith, new expectation. I eagerly watch CNN news, hoping to hear about something fabulous happening somewhere to someone. But, that so seldom happens . . . but I keep watching anyway. Good luck in the contest. livelylinda

I don't think you'll see it on CNN, keep believing however mercy has little to with the news but everything that exists in the Heavenly realm, but thanks for your wonderful support, Linda, blessings, Roy.

A wonderful haiku with the right words choice to create a vivid imagery. "Herald of mercy"--is a beautiful line and the picture is perfect to match the poet's imagination, good luck!

Aaah as soon as I saw your pic I knew it was Australia! (I'm an Aussie living in Hawaii). Interesting 5-7-5 though had to read thru twice to understand what you were meaning - but that wasn't such a difficult task, right? not so keen on rhyming within such a short piece, but that's just me.

This is a very beautiful 5-7-5 poem, the image is fantastic, yet
the poem stands on it own.


love early morning
new hope that's dawning holds sway
herald of mercy

Well done, Mary

Love your testimony and look fwd to the herald of mercy each day. Looking unto J the author and finisher of my faith. He sets out the dew for morning tea to his nature's company. He scatters his color patterns to dress the mountains and trees. After all of that, His eyes are still lovingly on me.

You met the criteria for this contest. If there was one for the best picture, this one would win too. What a beautiful photo.

I see no changes. Good job and good luck in the contest.

This is an interesting poem that the author has created with this piece of writing. Funnily enough, I love the mornings as well, even though I have to get up at 5AM every day. It has got to the stage that I can't even lie in on the weekend, so I get up early every day.
