-Beautiful artwork, very nice presentation, and good poem.
-Your ideas are presented very well with this format.
-Good progression from one stanza to the next.
-The poem begins well with the broken bread, offering "the gift of all eternity."
-The lines you chose to repeat are good and add to the flow of the poem.
-Good ending:
"Bright hope has won the victory.
Pure love is where your path has led"

You did great Debi :) A lovely theme and great repeating lines. Good and sensible rhymes with terrific variety. My only question is, what happened to your pentameter? I thought the rondeau redouble calls for iambic pentameter? At least that's what I thought.

You were always better at meter and me. Point out which line need fixing. I hate to say it, I thought it was in iambs
-
your meter is fine, it's iambic tetrameter and not pentameter. I thought the form calls for ten syllable lines?
-
Whew! Shadow Poetry, which is where I went for instructions had examples in both tetrameter and pentameter. I chose the tetrameter. But you do raise a good question. Now I will be looking for more examples.
-
sometimes shadow poetry confuses me. They'll say the form calls for strict meter, but the examples they give are all over the place with bad meter.

Yes. I was trying to find the last Rondeau Redouble contest on the site. I know I wrote a poem for it but missed the deadline. It was in tetrameter, but you have me wondering. I'm going to keep looking.
Poetry dances says a Rondeau can be tetrameter or pentameter, but it doesn't have Redouble description.
I wish Brooke were around to ask. She know.

Jesus promises to be with his own and to protect them. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a very good read. There is good imagery.
