Hello Amada,
You've written a wonderful poem for the faith contest
with an excellent opening line and interesting contrast
between perception in darkness and light.
Much like insight, that only comes with experience.
Nicely done.
Best wishes to you and good luck in the contest.
Robert

OOoOOOooOOOooo... What a mouthful you've said here~ I loved the description of your early years - so appropriate. Lovely!
And time and distance does change perspectives, doesn't it?
Thank you and good luck!

This is an excellent entry for the My Faith contest. It takes reading twice to understand its true meaning. You chose a lovely illustration for your lovely poem.

Comment from rama devi
I sought the linguistic of wild lights,
WHAT A FANTASTIC OPENING LINE! I love it!
Great simile.
Interesting closing twist - the inner lights shine brighter when vision is impaired.
One suggestion:
Today(,) I find those lights crystalize
US spelling uses two L's for crystallize.
Superb phonics with the medley of L and S sounds, especially.
Love this.
Potent voicing! Lovely presentation.
Warmly,
rd

Good point--we might see better in impaired light! I admired your faith poem and contrasting when you were young with today. I enjoyed Helvi2's mesmerizing light. Best wishes in the contest- Joan

Lovely artwork to accompany your well written poem of faith. A vivid comparison of sight in the eyes of our youth to the eyes of later, wiser years.
Well done.

Comment from Dorothy Farrell
Hello Amada, this is a short and very interesting poem. It suggests you put your faith in the study of language and art - lovely picture. 'We might see better in the dark' - you make a point here. We can be blinded by light. Good Luck in the contest. Warm regards Dorothy x
