Excellent sentiments for the season and I appreciate the Holliday wishes in your notes. Can't help but think that people have forgotten that this day is about being thankful . We are so fortunate in this country

Your poem is solid and the color scheme is season appropriate. Also, what a great find on that picture!

Nice work. Thanks for sharing!

This is a lovely Minute poem Maria and I agree, when we are down that is when we need to look around and appreciate the gifts Nature surrounds us with. Lovely presentation, Cheers

It is so comforting to know that God feeds the fowls of the air, and likewise robes the grass of the field, how much more would He provide tor the ones made in His image. This is such a wonderful Minute poem in this contest Maria, well done blessings Roy

I enjoyed your minute poem very much. Timely, and positive. Just one minor point - I have the impression the first line was 9 syllables (easily solved if so, using I'm instead of I am). Kate xx

Your minute poem contest entry read well, Harmony.
I liked the art choice and the color scheme first of all.
Your words flowed smoothly with great details of how
you were thankful--as we all should be. I loved the last two lines.
Thanks for sharing and best wishes in the contest, Jan

Amen! And yes, life changes everyday and those changes can be hard but if we trust and look around, we find we have many things to give thanks to our gracious God for. Best wishes in the contest.

Just FYI you have 9 syllables in the first line and you can easily fix by changing "I am" to "I'm"

    Hi Helen, Thank you so much for the excellent review and your
    exceptional comments! Thank you also for the suggestion. Blessed
    is an interesting word - when I looked it up before I wrote the poem it said blessed is one or two syllables. It said if it is a verb 1syllable!
    I am fine about using I'm if it is 2! I think it is being used as a verb but I am not sure. I would appreciate your opinion on this.
    Thanks so much, Maria

reply by lyenochka on 05-Nov-2022
    Oh, I wasn't referring to "blessed" - that's one syllable here, it's 'very' that's two. "I am blessed to have so very much" so I still count 9 syllables.
reply by the author on 05-Nov-2022
    Thanks so much Helen! I just changed
    it to I'm and learned how I just wasn't
    seeing very as two syllables! Have a
    great Sunday!.....Maria
