I don't think the ellipsis you used are appropriate in this circumstance, I would simply remove them. Other than this small note, I thought the piece was well constructed. Good work and thanks for sharing. Later daze.

It is always a pleasure to me to see poetry that praises God. That is why I love the Psalms so much. There has never been a book of poetry that could rival the book of Psalms in beauty and poetic integrity. I have written and published many books of religious poetry. They are really all the same, in that each book contained some poems from an earlier book with new poems added to each new book. This poem is lovely, and I enjoyed it very much. I look forward to reading your next post.

An elegant an eloquent Cube 16...faith glows out of every line... A joy to read as smooth a silk and as comforting as a hug. Your font, your image chosen...all of it combines to bring a sense of peace and serenity.--Karenina

I am so glad I had a six left for this perfect, and perfectly beautiful song of praise! There is no way to improve on this cube poem. It is exactly right in form and in words, and even the illustration is enough to make my heart sing. I loved it totally and completely, and can't wait to see who wrote it.

Great entry for the CUBE16 Style Poem writing prompt contest. It seems like a difficult form but you did fine. Good flow. The rhyme doesn't seem forced. I like the presentation. Good luck in the contest.
