This is a good entry into the Faith poem contest. The text is a great size. The message is clearly stated and easily understood. This is especially so after one reads your AN. I am sorry for the estrangement with your son. I pray one day he returns and the family is made whole. Your rhyme scheme is done well throughout the poem. The visual fits well. Good luck in the contest.

I'm happy you have your faith. It must be difficult not to see your son. I am also a mother and can understand how you feel.
Thanks so much for sharing this lovely poem.

Thank you for sharing this emotional contest entry with. I am positive that God will reunite you and your son when the time is right. We don't understand God's time, but He does. Good luck with the contest.

Geez. That's terrible that you haven't seen or heard from your son in so long. Your journey with God has probably saved your sanity. It is much less daunting to go through something when you have God beside you. Beautiful poem. Gretchen

    I definitely have my moments when I'm a basket case but then He lifts me up and I go on. I'm sure you are stronger than you realize but I hope you never have to endure this kind of pain.

The author's words are heartfelt, hopeful, descriptive and creative. As I read the author's words I felt sad, yet, I was glad this author's faith in
God prevails. Thank you for the author's notes - they speak volumes!
The artwork is lovely and compliments this poem.
Janet, my thoughts and prayers are with you....Maria

I'm sorry neighbor, (NC) for your loss, temporary as it may be. Your strength is hope, if not for tomorrow, but surely somewhere down the road. We also have another commonality: retirement. September 2006.
