a free verse of endurance
Care and Prayer

Hello anonymous,

I like your entry for the Those who endure... writing prompt contest.

I like the poems about farmers and the land.

There's something about them that reminds me of humans resilience.

This is a very moving free verse poem. It is a tale of perseverance and the struggle that is life. One must toil and work and bend and then in the end there is never a guarantee that you will awake the next day.

Very good entry.

Your poem is excellent in every respect. It is vividly descriptive and
moving, conveying a powerful message about perseverance and strength
to get a living from the earth and to forge ahead through faith after a spouse's death.

This certainly does describe endurance and your illustration pairs perfectly with your poem. I come from farming country so I can identify with your words. This is nicely done.

A good free-verse poem about endurance and perseverance. The life of farmers is hard and needs much endurance, especially when the weather strikes hard and ruins the hard work. If then also the partner dies, it needs even more perseverance to go on. Her prayers have helped him and keep on helping him even after her death.
The poem has a good rhythm and flow. One comment: In the last stanza you use once "your" whereas in other places you say "her" Be constant in this lovely poem and change this your for her as well.

Prayer, Care, and God. You did well with this tricky subject, it all fits together so well, His loss is great but he remembers her from when they planted their garden and he feels comforted to know she will survive
in his heart every spring when life is on the earth again.
Thanks for sharing
