A good spiritual 5-7-5.
A lot said with a strong message in a few short words. Not easy to do but you've done a good job.
And the picture is perfect.

Dear Anonymous Poet;
Thank you for sharing your spiritual five-seven-five, in honor of your friend, with us.
It is too true that our actions speak louder than words,
Good luck in the contest,

These seventeen syllables tell us the way we are supposed to live. It tells us to act out or kindness not just talk about it. Walk the walk not just talk the talk or another axiom Practice what you preach.
Good luck and keep writing.

You're absolutely right about that, Anonymous Poet. We show our love of God through our actions, not our deeds or words alone.
Actions speak much louder than words.
Reaching out to those in need, helping and encouraging our fellow man whenever humanly possible.
That's what it's truly all about in my humble opinion.

Amen. Words are just words...put it in their hands. I love this, set the example, so that others might experience God. Wonderful entry, blessings...

Comment from Gloria ....
Excellent presentation, author. I expect would prefer the word exemplify God rather than personify God. But I most definitely agree kindness and goodwill seem more charitable than declarations of faith that do not seem to require works and kindness and goodwill too. That seems backward to me, but what do I know?
I wish you all the best in the contest with this gem.

Ahh ... you understand fully. I do believe that is much more the word that fits. I may just redo it, though it's a pain. But that' s truly the word that belongs. Thanks so much. You're too kind. A six from a poet of your calibre is win enough for me. :))

A lot said here, more than meets the eye, I would say. There are a lot who CLAIM to be this and that, but it seems to be ALL TALK. Yes, just do what is right and people will get the idea. Great entry. NG

I can not read your poem. The screen is black and blank. Perhaps you need to change either the background or font colors.
I am sure the poem is lovely. If only I could read it ...

No, I don't see it. Perhaps it is my computer.

Hi, it's an embedded thing, words typed onto a picture. Here are the words anyway if the other thing doesn't show up. Sorry.

personify God
in your kindness and good will
not declarations
Comment from mermaids
Excellent 5-7-5 form that has a message and a spiritual feel to it. Our actions should reflect God not our declarations. You say much in few words, your lines connect well together.

Very good message in this write and you hit the nail on the head when you state that showing people kindness means that real and that He's a person. I think this poem is very well done and the wording is fantastic.
Therefore I give you 6 stars.
