Nicely done with this one my friend. I love the author notes where this was described. Excellent job of remembering the feelings as they occurred.

Comment from adewpearl
solid use of rhyming couplets
You capitalize His in your second stanza but not in your first stanza
good alliteration in give a glimpse
and hold onto him
good proximate rhyme of beat/indeed
A most thoughtful and inspiring poem of faith :-) Brooke

Comment from LenSive
I think it is interesting...and has some potentially knock-out lines. "The Rose of Sharon..." is one of those. It begins well but, for me, fizzles out a bit with "shepherd of the lame", esp"ly since i don't understand the "filling your heart with his golden seeds."(?) Sometimes for us to get the right effect many drafts are necessary. I think that may well be the case here. A credible beginning, but it needs some refinement...

Thank you for reviewing my poem, you've some very good points regarding my poem but this is how it came to me originally and had little to do with me it just came to me supernaturally.

Beautiful title and poem.Rose of Sharon, a lovely pinky mauve, but I cannot see it as a "warrior" in any way,perhaps just a link to what God provides to enhance a garden, or a vase.There is hope in your message and a reminder of what can be, if you search for it.Good work. Lesley.j.

A very nice poem that inspires and helps to keep one's faith intact.
"Enwrapping you in his loving arms
Forever protecting you from harm."
These are my favorite lines. Regards.

This is a beautiful poem, and one of which I shall inform my sister. Her name is Sharon, and my father was forever telling her she was named after the rose, with it's peculiar charm.

This is a lovely poem. I have never heard of the Rose of Sharon before but when I read the Author's Notes I understood the inspiration behind your poem.
