Say a prayer for those who cannot afford it.3 total reviews
Comment from LateBloomer
Hi author, your poem is filled with the love and spirit of Thanksgiving. You are correct, so many people are in need, and yet, many of those who have so much more forget about them. Your poem reads and flows well and has silky rhyming within. Of special note:
We too often forget about the poor,
When need doesn't knock at our door.
(Over the years, I've been amazed at people that I know to be very well off, and yet, they give little or nothing to charity.)
Lovely photo. As this is a contest entry, I wish you good luck.

Thank you, Late Bloomer, for the fantastic review and six stars. Too
many people just completely dismiss the plight of others. Again, you honor me with your remarks and stars. Willie

This is a good entry to the Thanksgiving Poem Contest. The text is a nice size. The message is clearly stated. The rhyme scheme is okay. The last line for me is redundant. You have already said in several ways there are poor people who need to be prayed for. I would probably end stressing they also must pray} Those who have little and must sincerely pray.
I would also drop the poem about two spaces down to balance it better in the poem box. The visual fits perfectly. Good luck in the contest.

Nice job on these quatrains. Very well thought-out rhyming scheme. Yes, it's sad but true. I too have been there a time or two. It's so important to do more during the Thanksgiving holidays than just eat dinner.
Super job on this!
