An excellent entry for the Kiddies Motivational Poem writing prompt. I had never heard of this woman before, which is odd considering I have sang her songs many times. An interesting lesson about a lady with seemingly boundless talent. Thank you for sharing.

    I guess I know a lot about her as she is buried in my hometown. I was once going to write a historical tale about her crossing paths with others of tht time. If God allows it, maybe one day.

Hi

This looks like a good entry for the contest. Good luck with that!!

I'm not sure this is something that would appeal to kids. I think Bible study would be a good vehicle for this to get to kids.

You documented her life very well. She is quite remarkable. It sounds like her hearing.(from God) was God's way of compensating her for her lack of sight. Beethoven was blind. From birth, I think

So, music Is the universal language. As she's proven by her writings and songs

Good job. Thanks for sharing.

    It may not appeal to kids, but i once did as puppet play about her so I felt I'd try it.

I know that Fanny Crosby is all over our church hymnal. Her songs and legacy will endure for all time. What a wonderfully written poem. Good luck in the contest!
Have a great day, and God bless.
