Excellent words of inspiration. You give reason and hope for people going through difficult times. When things are at their worse it brings the best out of us. Good job.

Hi, Melissa,
Such a beautiful photo to emphasize the point of your poem. I think this work should do well in the Faith Poetry contest - to believe that anything is possible is the core of faith.
Good luck!!

Good morning, Patty. Thank you for your lovely review and encouragement. I have been praying for the ability to make a clear, strong point through FS about faith, and this photo prompted me to write this verse. Our God can create hope from what looks like nothing. Have a wonderful day. Melissa

This tanka is well illustrated with your choice of art. The words remind us that
faith keeps us strong and hopeful through the rough times.

Comment from Ulla
Hi Melissa, this wonderful tanka really gave me food for thought. I'm not religious, but faith can be so many things. A faith that the future will bring something good is a belief i can identify with. I thoroughly enjoyed your poem. Good luck in the contest. Warm regards. Ulla:)))

Sugarray77, this is an excellent entry for the Faith poetry contest. All syllables are correct to convey a strong message of holding onto hope and not losing faith. A very spiritual piece with a beautiful and perfect picture to carry it across.
Best of luck in the competition. ~DD

Hello Sugarray77
Yes, I agree with faith as you said
when all seems lost, and
the hurt reaches to your core
Your tanka has perfect syllable count and a very good message to those who are losing their faith.

This is great, and the picture just adds to it. I can see how faith can spring from what appears to be dying. I have seen dying patients decided to get saved and have faith in god and their passing turns calm. This is very well done. Keep writing.
