the ever waiting answer from the almighty is painful and yet we must remain humble for we wait for one day, that one day where something extremely perplexing comes to mind; and we know he has answered our suffering calls for grace.
Once again you have out done yourself my friend, very liberal, insight with peace towards yourself and others. Great job... It really is a true testament for hope for I have acute dyslexia; and yet, I love to write. Stressful to always be checking my work time and time again, but that is my burden, my mercy!

    Thanks THE FREAK...my own mind has not all of its own capabilities either and from time to time I could sware I have a touch of the old dyslexia which means that when I am checking my work some of the lines are not as they should be and especially with iambs I have to keep checking till my brain hurts...

Really nicely worded. I like this a lot. I reviewed another of your works in the past couple of days, and seem to recall it have the bright white font and black background. If I'm correct about that, is there a particular reason you have chosen that. The only comment I would make is about the use of "him" in reference to God. I know it is not a requirement, but I use "Him" when referring to God. Just wonder if you've considered that?

This is such a sweet poem and so true. It is hard not to be touched by God's amazing, unconditional, and so undeserved love. So nicely expressed in words. I love the last line!

This work has reached the exceptional level


i just thought I would like to ask you if you had written:

'Here is mercy
Beloved Son:Beloved Christ
My God loved me'

would it by any chance be the best last line?
I only asked.

    I did not really go around messing with the last couplet I prefer it to have a solemn and profound feeling and sentiment about it and the way I have it does it for me. Also this way would have messed up the meter.
