Amada, I really love your poem. The photo fits nice. I think people loved what you were writing about and how you wrote it.
Good luck in all your contests.

Hi Cindy, thank you for your great comments and for your hugs!
Comment from Alchera
Have faith! but the reality is that nonexistent time passes quickly for everyone and the sight worsens day by day, along with our physical and mental forces of the body. Culture has evolved during lifetime but often deteriorates suddenly from other vital factors. I did like it! Good work!

Thank you for your great comments, and encouragement.
Comment from Patty Palmer
How wonderful when we can remember vividly in our mind's eye so that when our sight isn't quite what it used to be, to be able to remember the beautiful brightness and colors can still be remembered well enough as though you are seeing it again for the first time!

Comment from Rhianna Robins
I love the opening line.
I'd like to think I'm still living 'in the sun and glory of my early years' but with experience of any kind comes impairment. I've read this many times and each time forms a new and deeper meaning; just as it would for each individual reading it. Perception is a beautiful thing. Wonderful work!

Comment from royowen
Yes, is not something easy to define, and each goes on this journey to define the undefinable. And you've shared this part of your journey, although faith is defined in the bible, it is still yet, a mystery to a finite being. Well done, good luck, blessings Roy

Thank you so much Roy, faith is mysterious...yet it is nourishing.

It is indeed.
Comment from Jasmine Girl
What a beautiful poem about light and faith. I didn't know Faith can be so broadly defined. I have to enter next time.
I like your expression: "linguistic of wild lights".
I know Light is physics (spectrum and frequencies) and geometry but never have thought of it as being "linguistic".
Well done.

Hi Lisa, I think lights speaks to me; it can be in some many ways...difficult to say, easy in the mind. Let me know when you post your faith poem,I will be cheering for you.

Ok. Now I have to write one. Thanks for challenging me.

Ha, ha, ha...I know so well how that feel!
Comment from RGstar
Beautifully done Amada.
The imagery is potent indeed.
Years...crystallize , impaired have strong messages indeed.
Bravo.
I might just put a 'd' at the end of crystallize= crystallized.
I think it would read much better.
Well done.
My best wishes.

Got it, I corrected that error. Thank you so much for reading my work.
Comment from J. Raphael
I would assume your talking about aging. Your first line seaks the limitless wonder of being young "eagerly" and 'recess" sees through eyes that are too old to to make any difference (or care) Interesting point! I don't think anyone could have done better!

That was an interesting Faith poem and very well written, too. Those first words, linguistic of wild lights, had some lovely alliteration in them, and the visual effects were stunning. Well done and good luck in the contest. :)) Sandra xx
