A great poem I happened to see while searching for your whereabouts. How are you, Tina? I miss you and just wanted you to know that. Hopefully, you see this. Great poem as always,
Sally xoxo

Hi, Sally! I am ok...just was deluged by a few trials that took me away from the mainstream for awhile. I have been taking care of my health and can almost...just almost see the light at the end of the tunnel. My husband also had a very rough few months. Like another world for awhile!Thanks for asking about me. I have missed everyone! Funny how life dips and curves! Never once did I doubt God though! How are you doing? I will have to go your page and read! Ive set aside some time tomorrow to just read and read what I've been missing! Much love,
Tina

This 5-7-5, Light Came In, has the right set up and seems to thank that person who woke and inspired another. There are those who can bring us back around.

So much spiritual substance expressed clearly and insightfully. We can never know the power of love until it touches us. Great contest entry.

I enjoyed your poem. It's really true that being shown love can make you feel better. You know the saying "If you see someone without a smile, Give them one of yours!"

Thank you for the review! It was tough to write this, as love does so many wonderful things. I love that saying about smiles. Have a great day! I will remember to smile on someone today!

I'm going to spend several hours with my aunt today, as she is lonely after my uncle died a few months ago. At times I think I can't afford that time, but then the impact on her, being so grateful, makes me know that is what I was meant to do :-) I can't live myself just for me. It's not fulfilling. Thank you for the reminder about the smiles and have a good day!

Have a great time with your aunt, The best gift you can give is of yourself

True, wise one:) Have a good day too!

I rarely, if ever, have given 6's on a 5-7-5. This one is so deserving. The whole overall bit, your words with the chosen photo are superior. Very well done and just a phemonenal piece of work! Keep it up!

Wow, thank you so much! I especially appreciate this because you don't get very many sixes on the little poems. Come to think of it, I don't either unless it's very powerful. You have honored my poem and I thank you so much.
It's like you always think your own poetry says something deep, but you aren't sure if other people get it? It really touches me that you get it and that you like it :-) I appreciate you!
Blessings, Tina

Comment from Dean Kuch
Those of us who have been burned by a relationship in the past tend to put up barriers to keep others away and prevent it from happening again.
We're afraid of letting our guard down.
However, there comes a time for most of us when we meet that special someone who's just the right fit for us and those barriers come quickly tumbling down.
Light will always conquer darkness.
Love will always outlast hatred.
Good 5-7-5.
Best wishes to you in the contest.

Thank you for that personal back story. I think it's always a gift to know how individuals personally relate to something that you've written. I made this poem a tad bit vague because it does apply to various reasons that someone with shield themselves or box themselves off.
Thank you so much for the review, and especially the personal comments. I appreciate you!
Blessings,
Tina

Thank you, Dean...I will keep
at it!

Comment from LisaMay
I see that you have called your poem "Love Shone In". I would suggest that the last line of your verse could be the same... 'love' and 'shone' fit together better, I feel. As it is I get to finish with a 'din' sound.
Having said that, I really like your poem for its sentiments of how a loving touch or presence can make all the difference to the stark feelings of unloved reality, often lonely, of someone's day.

Thank you for the review! I actually had it that way to begin with and changed it because I wasn't sure that Shone was a proper verb. But it is, and I'll go back and change it. Thank you so much for your help!
