Comment from Goodadvicechan
I like to believe "all angels around." We need them to help us go through our rough times of pandemic and recession.
I am moved by "Our tears, each one, wiped away by His loving hand,"
We need faith to move on.
Thanks for sharing.

Rhonda, you have delivered a genuinely faith-based poem delivered with unforced rhymes and are consistent with meeting the contest requirements. You are already a winner in my book, so I hope your poem does well in the voting booth!

Comment from BethShelby
I enjoyed your poem. It is such a pleasure to be reminded of all the pleasures and blessing that will await us in the future if we remain faithful to God. These are unusual times that inspire us to write things that may not be our usual style.

Thank you for your comments, Beth! These are unusual times, and I'm looking forward to a return to some sort of normalcy. Whether it does or not, faith keeps us going.
Take care,

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
I love all the descriptions of how it might be when we enter Heaven, Rhonda, the smells, the feels, even the taste comes through. I wish it was possible for our loved ones to come and let us know. :)) This is a lovely poem for the faith contest, my friend. Well done and good luck. :)) Sandra xx

Thank you for your review, Sandra. I'm with you, I'd love at least my mother to come talk to me. Tell me what she's experiencing and let me know how she's been doing... hmmm... might be a good poem or story.
Take care,
Rhonda

I think you could be right! What will you do, the story or the poem???? xx

Good question. It could go either way.
Comment from amahra
Another great poetry entry, Rhonda. And the artwork matched the open very well. Best wishes in the contest.
Many things await us there, faith our entrance fee,
It's the promise given us, our Eternal guarantee.
We will never know it all until our time is done,
It's the fate of all who wait upon the Holy Son. [I love these last.]

Comment from Wendy G
A very enjoyable read - on a subject that we can't even begin to imagine, and yet you offered some beautiful thoughts about the reality of heaven for those whose trust is in Jesus. The anticipation of the reality is wonderful. Just seeing Him will be sufficient, but there will be so much more.

You know, Wendy, you are so right. Just being in His presence will be overwhelming enough, but I'm also sure He has some beauty to share with us.
Thanks for reading and reviewing,
Rhonda

This is a well-written faith poem. The rhyme scheme is on point. The font size is easily read. It has a specific, clearly stated, concrete message. This is a well-written and well-presented poem. Good luck in the contest.

Sandra, thank you for reading my Faith poem. One is never sure when they put their thoughts and feelings out for the public, even friends such as we have on this site, but you've made me feel good about it.

You are welcome. Well-done!

What might Heaven be like?
Heaven's Scent
davisr (Rhonda) I like how you described what heaven will be. You did well with your rhyming words,
Here is one of many ---
Our tears, each one, wiped away by His loving hand,
Tender warmth, a loving smile from the Son of Man.
What sights we'll see, what treasures touch, on the other side,
If only we, here below, in our faith abide.
The best to you Ronda in the faith contest.
