Building A Forest of Faith
Rhymed poem about my faith or an aspect of it12 total reviews
Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
I really enjoyed this rhyming free verse and the message of reading a short piece of scripture every night to help you sleep. Your lovely description of that forest of your faith and the need to tend it with care is particularly resonant and memorable. Well done and good luck! Debbie

Scripture reading is a wonderful way of talking to the Lord. I do my daily devotions every day and love the time I spend reading them. I like your wonderful thoughts about Jesus Christ.

Well now, what an approach to reading scripture -- highly original. So is your poem, and it's flawless too -- perfect meter and the varying rhyme scheme between stanzas is excellent. It all works! Best of luck in the contest.

Hi Chrystie, so you need to read from your bible every night in order to sleep well.
If I may be honest with you it's something which is completely alien to me. But I'm glad that it gives you comfort. Good luck in the contest. Ulla xcx

That's a nice poem really great one actually well written.
"The Forest of my faith deeds care, it seems"
That's my favorite line of your poem. Faith is something I hung on to and clung to for a lot of my life and faith in many forms to spiritually in myself I didn't certain people in my life. I see no issues with grammar aesthetics subject matter or sentence structure I think you got a great entry for the contest I wish you best of luck and hope you have a great day!

This is a well written poem about your faith, and I wish you the very best of the contest. I have always thought that it was better to read just one verse and read a whole book. Sometimes when we read a whole book, we really miss out on a real treasure hidden in one single verse. Patricia.

I like how you start with a "little leaf of faith" and keep your"tree of faith preserved." That's a great way to daily nurture faith. It's that faithful walk feeding on the daily bread of His Word that leads to "forests of faith ". Best wishes in the contest!

Comment from Tom Horonzy
Where would the world be IF those who don't suddenly did read the scriptures daily. I suggest a better place and yet ... they deny the Christ, and think "hogwash' as to religionists, but I read daily in my four books of scriptures as I awake hoping not to repeat mistakes made the day before.

I liked reading this. How you used this "forest of my faith needs care was great. I never thought about it that way. Our faith in God can easily ho the wayside if he don't pay attention to it. Great job
