This is a well-crafted poem. The devil would like to have all of us but thank God he can't. Your poem reads and flows well. I like the rhyming throughout the poem. Nice job.

You did a wonderful job in describing the power the devil uses to try to pull you towards his grasp, yet the strength shown in fighting back towards the angel's light. Great job with the rhyming!

There's nothing like a brush with death to bring things into focus. You show that clearly here with your devil versus bright light choice. You use good descriptive words and strong imagery.

Senced (sensed)

Thanks for sharing! Julie

I was moved and enjoyed this poem. One thing you might want to correct is the word sensed; you have the word senced. The rhythm flows well, and the imagery is fantastic; I can relate to the subject. I wish you well in this endeavour.
