Hello Portia I liked how you looped your words to say
a healthy heart craves love
cultivated hate creates
sour plates of
painful feelings
for you and others
Until--
we forgive and forget

Comment from Susan Chetcuti
A heartfelt poem that was really well done. The way you placed each sentence was excellent. Your words really stood out and meant something. They were your trials that you brought through for us to real. I really enjoyed it though.

Susan,
You are such a sweet and gentle soul, thank you so much for such an outstanding review. I believe the trails we go through give us strength to deal with other issues that may come our way. We can also help others who are experiencing the same problems we once endured. I really appreciate your very kind comments and the six star rating. Blessings my friend....Portia

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written loop poem. There are many issues we havecto deal with in our lives on a daily basis. There are always someone who feels they are unfairly treated.

Wasn't this an awesome challenge??? Took me days, I loved and hated it. You've written a lovely Loop here Miss Portia. All is lightened once we let go of the burdens, and give them to God. Beautiful, blessings...

Judy,
Yes my friend, this was indeed a challenge, you wouldn't believe how many times I had to make changes. Thanks so much for your review and kind comments. I haven't reviewed your Loop poem yet, it goes to show how far behind I am..
Thanks sweetie I really appreciate your review. Lots of love and have a wonderful day...Portia
Comment from RGstar
And I know so well of where you go with this, sweet lady, and know well how with dignity you absorb the hurt and find the way to channel the positive that only hearts that know pain have answers to.
I wish I could say more, for it is with heavy eyes I write this in admiration for a beautiful soul whom I am honored to know.
You create honor among men, and stronger I am as would all who has the fortune of such a presence.
Good luck in the competition, dear one. Your Poem of the Month entry confirm you belong, as you write with value and precision
So proud of you.
Best wishes

Hi,
I didn't know the rules about this type of poetry. It is indeed a challenge. I couldn't do it. So well done for that. I think you did well and many people can relate to the theme.
Unfortunately, many people go through deceive, betrayal. I liked there is light after darkness by the end.

This is a very good contest entry. I hope you win. I know you will do well. I like contests they always give me a thought for something to write about. Even is I don't enter I often use the contest as a starting point.

Tom,
Thank you my friend for you review and very encouraging words, they brought about a sense of confidence within that I lacked. God will send that special person to remind one to replace doubt with belief. We must always believe in ourselves, your kind words made a difference. Blessings my friend and lots of love...Portia
Comment from Alcreator Litt Dear
This poem states an essence of living, that life has to be safe and secure and peace has to achieve upon forgive and forget the most result oriented principle of life; I enjoyed the read.

Comment from pbomar1115
Yes. Not being appreciated can hurt your heart right down to the core. Everything is better when you let all that resentment go. Finding comfort in God is always good You can't go wrong there. We all have been hurt. So, you are better when the sun comes out. This is a lovely poem of being made better through hurt. I think you are new and improved now.
