Comment from Jay Squires
This was a very tender, lovely poem, Sandra. We need all remember we are individually not created to bear life's burdens alone. Whether we share our load with another, or whether we take the more courageous route and drop to our knees, unloading our burdens to a higher power. I'm so sorry to hear about your back. I can relate to back pain myself and have recently had to accept that I will have to live with it. It is endurable after all. You are amazing, Sandra. Thank you for being such a friend.

That is the problem, isn't it, we have to learn to live with it. Getting old doesn't help the problem, I think I'll stay the age I am now before it can get any worse!! Lol.
Thank you so very much for your lovely review, dear Jay. You say the nicest words, dear friend. And a big hug for the sixth shiny star!! You are wonderful! Love and hugs. Sandra xxx

Wonderfully uplifting! A refreshing spin on prayer--as plea for relief from despair, rather than for the purpose of worship or atonement. Story well told in fine rhyme!

Hi Sandra This is a lovely poem and beautifully written as you can do. The stanza's and rhyme superb and a great image to compliment your words.
Look after yourself and I hope your back improves soon.. It is hard having back pain and difficult to manage at times
Sending a hug (and some denca rub) Cheers Chris

Thank you so much, Chris. I'm so pleased you liked this poem. Thank you for the denca rub! Lol, I'll use it straight away. I'm having an MRI scan to see what's going on with my spine, it's crumbling in parts, has been for a few years, but this is something else that needs to be checked out. Thank you so much for your kind hug. Sending you one back as well. :)) Sandra xx
Love and hugs, my dear friend.

Comment from Paul McFarland
Sandra, the power of prayer is well exemplified here. Nice rhyme and meter. Sometime it's good to just chat with the Man upstairs.
Now, at the end of this nice day,
I get down on my knees to pray.
No need to answer, Lord. I'm fine.
I just thought I'd drop You a line.

"The Power of Prayer", is an exceptionally well-written and heart-wrenching piece. Penned with craft and skill. This talented poet's work was a true pleasure to both read and review. To me this is definitely a six. I look forward to seeing your next post.

Your image choice is perfect, Sandra. I enjoyed reading your well thought out poem. Your lines read smooth with good end rhymes. Your well chosen words create great imagery. I could see this troubled lady before with her heavy heart, and after when she realized there was One who truly loved her and cared. I agree with you about the power of prayer.
Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan
