These are fine words and I find myself encouraging my grand daughter today as she is so upset she cannot go to school right now, I told her that this will not last forever and she must stay positive, your poem would be ideal to read to her, love Dolly x

A very well-written fifteen syllable poem about helping others finding hope will also give us hope and the darkness in our hearts will be wiped out with the light of life.

Melissa,
Very nice 15 word poem. The photo is beautiful, and the sentiment is touching. There is slot of gloom in the world, and hope is always needed. You say so much in just 15 words. Excellent poem.
Good luck in the contest,
Blessings,
Cindy

Candles provide light and hope just like people who help other provide light and hope in those they help. Very meaningful mix of words and artwork.
Good luck in the contest, Melissa.
Keep writing and stay healthy.

I like you use these fifteen syllables in one sentence, which is very profound. Yes, awakening hope is a good way to kill the gloom in one's thought.

Well done and good luck in the contest. I think you will win.

What wonderful use you have made of your well-selected syllables. One who awakes hope in another could be saving a life. What could be more rewarding?

It is rewarding to have the ability to lift someone else's burden by giving them a spark of hope. The world can be a gloomy place for many who are mired in depression and darkness. Shining a little light their way can do so much good. Fine advice in poetic form.

That's a lovely thought. I think that's why volunteer work is the most satisfying and rewarding because when we "awaken" hope in others, we are also blessed with that hope we see. Best wishes in the contest!
