This one I don't get. I like the first line, "Rain drops speak God's glow", but then, I don't get the word blow in the seond line. Is it a passive word, active word, or what. Perhaps just me. Bill

And so here I am! I see this is part of a book, and this part is at the very least a wonderful point to start at.

While this poem is brief, its simplicity, like rain, contains weight as it pours. At face value, the words can be taken as shallow, but understanding of rain, the makeup of water, growing soil and how rain sustains life, your three lines contain more wisdom than many attempt to convey in congested books.

This illustrates life in the breath of the Eternal, and His messages as being round, circular - complete and whole.

One thing did confuse me, though. Could you explain the last lyric a bit? I am unsure what you mean by "Muse Lord mute".

I look very forward to reading this entire book.

Not sure I understand the "ceaseless blow." The word "blow" her is not meant to be violent is it? (Because I'm picturing a punch). I imagine you're going for a feeling like wind, but I'm not sure I can reconcile this with the rest of the poem any more than I can understand how a being speaks in glows.

Sorry. I am a literal person.. which may do your poem diservice.

I had a difficult time making any sense of this write.

The punctuation and grammar are not correct.

Grow life, move His ceaseless blow

Muse Lord mute; round message flow.

Neither the comma nor the semi-colon in the above ... work where you have placed them.

The last line makes absolutely no sense.

Simple yet beautiful. I never get tired of saying how amazing our language is, and how cool it is that you can say 17 little words and bring me before God to show me his loving and caring ways. You showed me the wonder in a raindrop. That is a heavy load for 17 words. That is amazing. Great work.

This is a very well created and written poem. The message is clear and strong. It's so easy to take many of God's everyday gifts for granted. Love the picture you found for this, too. Best, Dan :))

This work has reached the exceptional level

It always amazes me how you can take so few words and invoke so much meaning. Feelings of rebirth, grace and unconditional love.

I hear the doxology.

My meditation for today.
