A very nice entry for this contest. We have to keep an eye on and pray for those who need it. The picture you chose enhances your poem. It speaks loudly all by itself.

This is a nicely written poem for the faith entry. Great overall presentation background colour and font. Beautiful photo to compliment your words. Good luck in the contest.

This spiritual 5-7-5, For Those Who Cannot, has the right set up and honors those who go to the altar to seek succor for those unable or perhaps unwilling to seek it themselves.

Dear Poet,

This is a very strong entry
for the faith 5-7-5 writing prompt!

Wow, a selfless prayer...not for oneself...even if sick (interpreted from your beautiful artwork selection by Linda B)
But, for others.

Very touching and a winner on all levels.

First and foremost, best of luck in the contest, I believe you will do well.
When I read the title and your poem it makes me believe of the sick out there who cannot do for themselves. In these trying times, this poem speaks for them.
"You cannot pray for yourself?, don't worry, I've got you."
Great job.

That is a very generous and compassionate prayer life, and a very unselfish attitude. There are so many who need prayer, and who cannot find the strength or the words, despite having faith, as well as those who are yet to come to faith. Beautiful poem, and superb image.

I will admit that 5-7-5 poems are difficult for me to review because I'm still learning how to write them myself. However, I like the topic of yours. I like the last line a lot, but unfortunately, I cannot give you any helpful advice. I do know that the syllable count is correct... :-) Best of luck to you in the contest. Hugs.

That's really great. But to raise others. (The visual contributes to this). I really dig it. I often say, "It is my duty and my joy to serve all." This gives me that really pure calm contentment. To be free of guilt or selfishness, but to always be strong, to hold others up, no matter how weak you may feel.

Beautifully expressed in a few words. I find the expression of Love, Joy, Suffering, Compassion, Curiosity, and most of all, His presence. Thanks for sharing!
