Comment from Barb Hensongispsaca
I find this to be an excellent rondeau redouble and the repeating lines are strong enough to give emphasis to the stanzas using them.
Very well done

A clever poem on faith, strength and gratitude. "Because I have awoken with insight..... just trust that everything will be alright" are powerful thoughts that can change a situation instantly. Just having those positive motivators, instead of dwelling in the negative, is the first step to conquering those barriers. Cheers, judester.

Comment from Gloria ....
Your entire presentation is magical, Christine. Clearly you are an artist of not only the written word, but also visuals.
Excellent message in your rondeau redouble. To be glad to be alive is exactly the right attitude.
You could never tell from this beauty that this was your first, so all the best to you in the contest.

Christine,
I admire you and you are to be commended for the penning of this beautiful Rondeau Redoublé. I recall the penning of my first Rondeau, it was indeed a challenge but I made it through. When I saw the Rondeau Redouble prompt come up, I didn't give it a second chance. I have since penned another Rondeau, just don't have the confidence to release it. You are very talented my friend, I enjoyed the read from the beginning to the ending. Excellent rhyming and meter and message. Each and every day we must give thanks and be glad to be alive. Blessings my friend and the very best to you in the contest.. Portia

Chrissy, sorry I'm not that familiar with the Rondea Redouble, but
I like the thoughts here. I like your repeating line ... Today I am
so glad to be alive. Those fears can make us miserable, so it's good
to just trust that God will help us through.
