Exceptional

Sugarray77: I noticed that you have 14 reviews so I am adding one.
Congrats on your first place win! I spend time walking dogs and
praying. Many times, The Lord gives me the words to say in my poems.

I help people who are overcoming suicidal thoughts by helping them with
girl dates. Other ladies had surgeries and I run errands and help them.
They in turn like to share stories.

I noticed that you show us God's creation. The dew, the air, the midnight breeze, green fresh mown grass beneath my knees,,,

What is man that God is mindful of? He loves us more than the birds!
We are created to celebrate Christ and share His love, joy, peace in lives.
Yes, the creator watches us! soli deo gloria! <>< flylikeaneagle

I will rejoice and be glad! May God's light shine upon us!

I also commune with the Creator and you do it right. Where no one but you and Him can speak while, "The dew, the air, the midnight breeze, green fresh mown grass beneath my knees," refreshes your soul, your spirit. Good entry for the Quiet contest.

Excellent poetic form that captures the strong presence of the moon. "Creator keeps me in his sight" is a wonderful line that makes the reader feel good. You have a smooth flow of lines and verses.

Hello Mystery Writer,
I most certainly appreciate and admire the format, concept, and message of your quatrain. The phrases are melodic up until the last line. "Qui - et" does not rhyme with sight. It is not even a near rhyme...unless...and I am on "iffy ground" here, it is employed in a regional dialect of which I am not familiar...perhaps. If that is the case, my sincere apologies. And if that is the case, I would add a comment in the Author's Notes.

Best wishes!
diane

Thanks Diane. I looked it up online and the word was described as one syllable. I?m from the South where it is a two syllable word and felt iffy using it. But, I took the liberty of using the Google definition. I really appreciate your comments. Melissa

Hello Again!
Qui-et is so often confused with "quite" which does rhyme with sight! Perhaps, afterwards, you might toy with "pilot" = a closer approximation to "quiet" as in

Creator is my guiding pilot
communes with me when I am quiet.


Just a thought!


Best always,

diane

Dear Mystery Poet,

I enjoyed gazing at the moon with you :) I agree, the moon is fascinating to watch and I feel peaceful and at ease. All my worldly troubles seem so small compared to the beauty of the night sky. It does feel like God is watching us. This is a lovely contest entry and I wish you well with it.

Dear Mystery Poet,

What a yummy image you're creating here! I think the quiet of nature can be the most healing thing on earth. --ahhhhh...-- You have captured that mood really well here and I think lots of people will be able to relate to this wonderful piece.

Favorite lines:
--> Tucked within a bright moonbeam's glow, an inner peace I did not know,

--> Creator keeps me in his sight, communes with me when I am quiet.

Delightful!! Thanks for sharing and much good luck to you. (You've earned MY vote!)

An interesting search and ultimate discovery of peace and mostly of 'Quiet' following Nature's nurture and 'sweet nature's rhythm from time old'- an inspiring sentiment

A very well-written poem about finding some time where we can bexquiet for a while and see the beauty around us in nature and in the skies. We get closer to our Lord in moments we are.quiet.
