There is an excellent message in your poem, sarahice. And it is mostly well-constructed. I have a problem with Stanza 2, line 2: there are far too many syllables for an even rhythm. It makes me stumble and distracts me from your thought. An excellent challenge to everyone, young and old. :) Nancy

Your spiritual poem, Embrace Integrity, states we must be brave and honest. You have a smooth cadence and an excellent rhyming scheme to your poem.

Strong words of encouragement. Oh if only the young warriors in this world would pay heed and do the wise thing, listen to wise counsel. In the Bible we are advised to not walk as the stupid ones walk and to not mix in company with those doing bad things, causing ruin and harm. As hopefully wiser adults, we must set the pattern so that when we advise the young they may not point to us and say 'How can you advise me when you are doing wrong?'

This if a marvellous reaction, and yes I agree about our sample of faith and life stile we must portray before our young ones and how can advise them in spite our own weakness. We just have to be honest with ourselves. Beautiful reaction, well done. Sarah Ice.
Comment from Charlie Crewes
Thank you for the helpful author notes. Your chosen subject "integrity" was well thought of and a word that is currently underused in our society like "sportsmanship," "grace," and "fair play" Excellent flow with an important message. Well-done.

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
Amazing! What a wonderful poem, I wish I had a six left to give you! Your poem says a lot of truth, it would be a good lesson to so many today if they would but read the lines and really understand what you have said. A true poet, the stanzas are clever, flow well and keeps the reader there with you to the end. WEll done!

Dear Sandra, Thank you so much for your inspiring comments on my poem. I take very little credit for my poetry as they're purely inspirational and I received them at a special time in my life. With kindness, Sarah

Comment from Alan K Pease
Her beauty does entrance me, Her message does enhance me, Meeting you does fill my desire for positive thought near and far. I think you have formed a philosophy which in this poem would attract people (especially youth) who are on the edge and desire something more from a poem.

You paint in words an elegant picture for those of us who believe in integrity and teach it to our children. Truth is so hard to come by these days.

I wish I had a six left to give you and the power for every young person to take this terrific advice to heart. Always following your heart to do the right thing and treat yourself and others with respect is the best way to live your life. No regrets, that you've done your best. Very well done.
