A truthful and straight forward poem. Help others at all times, then you do what is described in the bible. Be a good Samaritan and you fulfilled the order to love your neighbor.

"Don the garment of someone else's pain ... lets hear their distant wailing those souls in far off lands. "This is as appropriate in today's world as it was in Jesus' time. If only we all could do that and have compassion for our neighbors , it would be a better, more peaceful world. As a peace advocate, this is a poem after my heart! Thanks for sharing it.

Roy;
-Thank you so much for your author notes for they have helped me with the concept of your writing. The picture also was outstandingly chosen and very relative and complementary to your writing. A very appropriate choice.
-You use good rhyming for each of your rhyming words were contingent to the meaning and concept of each line therefore making the rhythm to flow smoothly and that it did.
-The rhythmic meter being iambic and the cadence, timing and tempo wall helpful in making your reading Clear, fluid and very easy.
-The concept of a good Samaritan in your writing was sufficiently and appropriately submitted in a way that was easy to understand. You intertwining that topic so that the imagery was exquisitely expressive and vividly descriptive was helpful in visualizing the topic.
-Thank you for sharing and posting this Roy and may the good Lord be with you always my friend.

Hi Roy,

Your poem that tells a story is exceptional. I loved ever word of it. I also enjoyed reading the scripture to put up with it. Of course I haven't read anything of yours that I didn't write. You are a great poet.

I have always loved the story of the good Samaritan. A wonderful poem written in ABAB format. The poem is a nice compliment to the story.

I really liked this one a lot, it was very strong in meaning and feeling, the idea of loving the hardest people to love seems very powerful, and the biblical message comes through loud and clear. Sacrifice in the name of love will uphold you, to give and to receive at some point.

Dear Royowen,
What a great outlet to express your love for God. I too, believe in the scriptures you shared. But, your own words of wisdom from God were genuinely expressed, and could easily be used for a website, like Wisdom Hunters. You could probably create a website similar to it. In other words, your writing is as eloquent as the writer of that website.

I like your message, as always, Ray. The parable of the Good Samaritan has always been a favorite of mine, but I never thought to apply it to the troubles people are experiencing in the middle east. Thank you for bringing this to the forefront!
