I really like your poem. How we need Jesus every day to remember the feeling of love instead of hate. The words "I hate you" comes to easy for some to say. I wonder if they will say the same thing when judgement day arrives?

Thank you for your wonderful review.
With Jesus at the forefront, I don't see how it is possible to hate. It just goes to show how Jesus is not a priority for many.

This poem is spectacular. I loved the words you've selected ... First line, to bathe in love implies baptism in the love of God, and the second line is so meaningful, as you have combined water with truth. The Bible speaks of being washed in the water of the Word, and we know His Word IS truth. And the last line makes it clear what all of us must do... be cleansed from sin. I hope this gets lots of votes in this contest. It is not easy to pack so much truth into so few syllables, but you've done it with this poem. I loved it. Sorry I've run out of sixes already. ;"( This is most deserving. MM

A piece that tells people how they might achieve calm and rest in their lives. To let go and allow the past to fade away so you may start anew learning from it.

I like this because you wrote a poem about "cleansing" water. All three lines address this: bathe, drink pure water, wash. Very spiritual, really nicely written.

Your poem is excellent in every respect--enthusiastically spiritual, moving, and so powerful in its message about spiritual renewal by seeking what's pure rather than sinful.

This is a well written poem. The second line of this poem is very good. The entire poem flows well. To wash away our sins is a good message. The picture compliments this poem well. Nice job.
