Pondering Faith: A Prose Poem
Thinking about life and beyond6 total reviews
Comment from Cleo Belle
I liked the clarity of your thoughts as you progressed through the poem and the way that you say that it is up to you, yourself, how you live like and what you make of it. I call it 'taking responsibility' and I wish the teachers would teach this philosophy to the children in their care as well as the fact that children have 'rights'. Thank you for letting me read this.

This speaks plethora of questions in mind about man, soul, existence, birth, death, why born and die, is God dead or alive, many more with no effect of answers; I liked.

Bravo! Did I say, Bravo?! This piece is what I'm after, when I read a poem. Something that makes me think, gives me a little different perception on so many trite sayings, perhaps? I hope you win this contest, because you have nailed your feelings on the subject of faith so well, fellow writer! There's nothing to correct here. Keep writing!!!! You have talent!

Many believe there is an afterlife and it gives hope to some, and whatever gives the living hope is okay with me, I am more of a realist though, your poem is food for thought and I enjoyed your questions, love Dolly x

Written from the perception of someone who is searching. It shows you are quite stubborn in your thoughts "to be free." These are the questions we should all ask if we believe we are "a good person." One step further means commitment.

You nailed it, I am searching. But, I guess I will have to wait for the answers. Thanks for the read and the comments.

Nietzsche Famously posted his theory God is dead on the door of a church. A few years later some posted a sign that said, Nietzsche, is Dead. God is alive.

Yes, Nietzche had some interesting thoughts, but his negativity is a little tiresome. Kindness should be the way of all people not superiority.
