This is a great villenelle and would have been a great entry. I love poems of faith such as this that have such great messages.

The Word in poetry or any other way is always pure. Acceptable to those who have ears to hear the spirit. Well done, poet. Shame the work never reached the contest. Best to you.

Its a shame this wasn't in the contest, Tom, I read a few of them and yours is excellent. I don't know why you couldn't find it. It's a lovely style and your theme, Jesus is really beautiful. No one can go wrong with Him. :) Sandra

I am sorry the contest alluded you, but I'm glad you shared this spiritual poem with us and continued the theme of the "Burning Bush". I admired your rhymes and repeats, especially those of the quoted line. Cheers- Joan

It's a shame you missed the contest Tom. It is a lot of work to write one of these. I love the message you impart.
"Go forth and teach ye all nations", he said.
"Go forth, go preach them the Gospel's good news".
Apostles went, and His words quickly spread.
That was the way they communicated in those days.
Well done Tom. Nancy

Another great poem that rhymes and flows well. The repetition of the line creates impact:
"Go forth and teach ye all nations", he said.
It shows His perseverance and tenacity teaching mankind to walk the right path. Well done, Tom.

"if" in notes should be "of". Well written depicting of this event that once again proves "Cast your vote for Jesus. Keep your eyes on Calvary" is what life is all about.

This work has reached the exceptional level

A beautiful message straight from His Word. In this world today where Satan rules the spreading of His word is needed more than ever before. There is very little people who are willing to spread the Word.

Another sound use for a villanelle is if you wish to preach or have a message to get across, whether it is biblical or that most famous of all villeanelles "rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Excellent artwork that complements your poem perfectly. You wrote a faultless Villanelle with strong repeating lines. The content is religious. Nice read for a Sunday.
