We are definitely a work in progress and your marvelous poem is excellent reminder that we are children of God and He isn't finished with us yet.
I enjoyed the artwork and presentation and delightful imagery as well.

I have always said that you create the most gorgeous images and the words that go with them are spectacular. It takes much thought when you create such a scene.

Hi MariVal,
These quatrains remind us what a gift the beauty of nature is. And also that our very lives are a gift from God, too,
Keep writing and stay healthy
Have a great rest of the day and week.

I saw a T-shirt once that said, 'Be patient God isn't finished with me yet.' That fits your beautifully written poem and presentation perfectly. Yes, we are all a work in progress. I enjoyed reading and enjoyed the message.

Oh wow, Gypsy! This is superb. I love your longer verses and the way you prolong the mood with glorious, inspiring imagery. And what a stanza to end on! Good old Maya! Didn't she always simply hit the nail on the head! Thanks for sharing this delightful read! Debbie

What stellar presentation. And an equally beautiful poem. I especially like the last stanza and appreciate you referencing God as a divine artist. We always say creator but He's more than that.

A beautiful write, MariVal. Every word strikes me as heartfelt, a song of praise to God. It reads as a modern-day psalm. Yes, we are the beloved children of God. I love the ritual of my church where the priest says after Holy Communion, "Beloved, depart in peace". We are challenged to love ourselves and others as God loves us. This is my work in progress.
How wonderful that you dedicate this write to Helen! She is a shining light.
Blessings, Cheryl

Hello, Cheryl, I like, "Beloved, depart in peace". How beautiful.
It does come from my heart. I'm not a Bible expert but I feel close to Jesus Christ.
Thank you very much for your excellent review and kind words.

What a beautiful free verse and pictures to praise God's divine power. Yes. I'm amazed and grateful all the time but you've expressed your feeling in beautiful and precise words. You did a great presentation again.
Well done.

Amen! Thank you for this beautiful poem and the reminder of how we are all children of our Heavenly Father! In Ephesians 2:10, it says: "For we are God's masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago." (New Living Translation)
Your poem captures this very thought - works in progress but He views each of us as His masterpiece. (The Greek word is "poiema")

I love Ephesians 2:10, I'm saving it to a file with your prayers.
Thank you very much, big sister. I appreciate the exceptional six stars review and wise feedback. I'm not a Bible expert, what I write comes straight from my heart.
