I am a child of God. There is no greater achievement that we could wish for than to be loved by the Lord. Certainly He gives us peace, love, and confidence as we daily seek His face.

Hi Pookietoo,

This is a dandy self improvement free verse poem! I like that you graciously touched on your high points and just as graciously touched in areas you find you can improve. Honest and forthright with a touch of class, this is a strong entry for the coming contest!

Great writing!
Always,
Senyai

That's different with all the lines starting with "I". After reading your poem, I think I know you pretty well.

I see you are loved and you have many friends.
There's one thing from you I implore.
I don't know how far that your friendship extends.
I hope you have room for one more.

Pookie,

Sounds like you've already got most things figured out! That's pretty good - you should be teaching classes to the rest of us!!! *smile* This is a sweet and fun poem focused on the most important things in life and I enjoyed it! Good luck!

This is certainly a self improvement poem as you blow your own trumpet and all praise is from your own point of view. You made me smile here, good luck with the contest and I hope the mirror never lies to you, love Dolly x

I like how you described yourself as a child of God and one who wants to live just as the Lord Jesus taught. I especially liked your stanza of "I can" statements. Best wishes in the contest!

This is a good poem. What I get for this is that the first and last stanzas are about who you are in the present; "I am" statements. Next it moves to the future "I will" statements. Then moves to improving the present, "I can." I really enjoyed this work. Thank you and good luck in the contest.

This is a thorough analysis for the self-improvement free verse contest. Is free verse permitted to rhyme? Not sure - might be best to check. Maybe you could make the first stanza also have four lines by saying in the third line "I am loved, and have many friends" all in one line. Just a suggestion. You sound happy and fulfilled. Well done. Best wishes for your entry.

    Yes, free verse is permitted to rhyme.
reply by the author on 29-Sep-2021
    I wrote 10 syllables in each line so I can't change the third line in the first stanza.
reply by Wendy G on 29-Sep-2021
    The third and fourth lines do not have ten syllables. If you join them together they will.

A great message, thank you, and I like your American Flag 'T' shirt!
There are some good messages here for anyone and everyone to read.
Anyone who believes strives to live a life that serves a purpose, and to do right by others.
The way the world is going now, I have my doubts.
Thank you for sharing this!
