Bev, how very lovely! I am so glad I didn't miss this (although I am awfully late, but then that's me anymore - always lagging behind). :) "Faith is the solid ground beneath murky waters..." resonates so strongly with me, especially in recent years. As I age it seems I have more and more questions...

    Dawn, thank you very much for taking time to review this poem. I know what you mean about the solid ground of faith. I'm glad that I was raised to believe in something bigger than this old world.

    :) Bev

Nice verse built with strength on three pillars , ''Faith'' ''Grace'' and their foundation ''Love'' The poem is framed with a lovely piece of art, adding to and attracting the readers attention. Nicely done.

I enjoy your use of contrast throughout this. You seem to have an endless supply, and with lines like this, I could read it all day:

Love creates a feast from the bread of anxious toil
And calms the weary soul. -- has a strong, soothing feel

This one is my favourite:

It rocks you while you grieve
And makes straight the crooked road. -- the steadying influence comes across so vividly here. Really nice work. Keep it up.

I love this, and the last verse is my favorite, with the best subject.

The formatting is interesting to me (I'm no poet). I liked even the shape, the physical shape, was cool.

Thanks for the read. Good luck.

Dear Poet,

For love with grace is all we need to face the perils of the day. To embrace with light rather than dark should be the goal of us all. Excellent write.

Good luck in the contest.

Warm regards,

Winslow

Lovely artwork that complements your poem perfectly. I really liked your free verse style poem about faith, then grace and in the end love. Very cleverly written. A lot of alliteration, I found no simile. Best wishes for the contest.
