Very uplifting message in your faith poem. There is nothing that can stand between a believer and his/her faith.When dark clouds in life start to interfere with peace,"My faith restores." Good alliteration in:d,h,w ,s.
The picture used is a good choice for your write.Good luck in the contest.

Dear Brooke, I really like the repeating line of 'my faith restores.' That one line says it all. I really enjoy this style of poetry. You make all styles of poetry seem so easy. Great job, Shirley

That Rondeau is a beautiful format in that it creates wonderful poetry. It is very difficult to write because there are only 2 rhymes that cover through 15 lines. You expressed it well in this lovely piece about faith. It is both spiritual and lyrical. Great picture too.

This is a wonderful declaration of faith in tomorrow, and faith to overcome the trials of life. I love the idea of a song to help restore the positive feelings. A very inspirational write, Brooke, well done, Bill

This contest should be an easy one for you. It's a beautiful work. Great stanza application.
My best stanza, "At times when troubles last too long
and keep the cloak of darkness drawn,
when sorrow has me in its sights,
my faith restores."

What a gentle, sincere expression of one poet's personal belief. As always in your poetry, a totally positive and wholesome consciousness finds perfect expression via exquisitely crafted language.

Really nicely done. I just spent 2 days at Willow Creek Leadership Summit. Talk about having your faith restored, or at least a shot in the arm. Was so great! This is very well done as always. Hope you do well in the contest. Rox
