My apologies for my delay in writing my review. AN INSPIRATIONAL SPIRITUAL MESSAGE for our reflection. The muse in this poem keeps your eyes flowing from line to line. An introductory stanza announcing the void and emptiness experienced with
the absence of hope. Then an spiritual Olympian Faith runs into the arena lighting all the torches with faith. Then this musical overture shines on the desolation experienced by the daily challenges whether for daily living or writing. Then a soft finale :
"Within the glow of acceptance, I will thrive. "

Thank you for this exceptionally well written inspirational poem. Kudos.

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful poem, dear Nomi. I so enjoyed this and I know that Hope is essential to life into the future that we have in Christ. The Bible says that the hope of God does not disappoint and I must say for me it does not disappoint because I trust in Him and His word. Thank you again and God bless you always, Sally XOs

Well, I'm glad Jesse's poem inspired you, this is a fabulous poem that gives all hope to all people. We do need hope, because without it we're lost. We were given hope by Jesus, and it's up to us to keep it alive. When truly tested we need to remember God has His reasons. Well done, my friend! Love and hugs, Sandra xxx

Man, when you pick a topic like hope, you better bring it. And you did. The tie-in with faith is absolute in my book. The challenges you suggested rang true. But hope requires action and I believe you alluded to that. Clear the weeds, baby!

Faith, hope and love says the Bible. The greatest of these is love. I liked your poem because it calls on the truth of the unknown. We all fear death, only because it is the ending and we are not sure of the new beginning. Transition into a spiritual life; no pain only love. K xx

Yes, if I hadn't of found this site, I would still be writing, but not with the help of fellow writers, and a willingness to learn, hope is when we see desolation, and imagine what a scene can become. This is beautifully written Bro, in very articulate and expressive writing, clever rhyming and a great theme, well done, blessings Roy

Nomi, this is one of the most meaningful and Beautiful poems I have seen in a very long time. What elegance you used to get your point across in it.
You have separated this into four parts, with the first being what it is we need to do. Next was what we can achieve when we have the hope, strength and whatever it takes to fight for what it is we want. Then the absence of these things, and finally what kind of joy, happiness and achievement of goals. While a little of each is in each stanza, this is what I take from this well thought out and stunning and eloquent read. Thank you my wonderful friend and big brother. I feel the fulfillment that you talk of when I read this. If we all got it, there would be more of a fellowship of mankind and love. Thanks again!!

    I have known that since the day I first met you. I knew there was something so special about you, and you have been proving it to me ever since. I believe there is nothing you can't do. And knowing that you let God guide your path just convinces me even more.

    I am blwon away by your faith in me and my abilities. I pray that I never let you down. Please believe me, I am no angel, I do however try to do the very best and be the very best I can in every circumstance. I am a project that needs work as I believe we all do. So please forgive me if and when I prove to be all too human and as regular as the next guy.

    I know if I put you on a pedestal, you will fall off and hurt yourself. So I just expect you to be my Nomi that I have to come to love and respect. That is where my faith is in you, the reality that you are achieving at the level God has planned for you. I am terrifically proud of you for being you.

    Your kind words and warm regard are returned with all sincerity. Please believe me, I hold you in high regard. I respect you, your beliefs, your standards, and when you say something I believe that it is 100% true. Much, much love for you and those whom you love and hold dear.

The author's words are uplifting, meaningful, descriptive and creative.
Yes, I agree with this author faith and hope give one the endurance to
go on especially during difficult times. The poem flows and connects well. The artwork goes well with both the theme and words of this poem.
Hope you are doing well...Maria
