What a great idea to take each 5-7-5 poem and work it into a thought provoking piece. The message of Spirit comes through and encouragement to take a leap of faith. This is quite an inspirational poem and the picture works very well with it! The message is beautiful!

Very good 5-7-5. I like its encouraging message. I especially liked this:
"take a leap of faith
believe you are important" It says a lot in just a few words.

Yes, without your own knowledge or input into things no matter how unworthy you think they are, it possibly could make all the difference in the world to an unbeliever.

Wonderful Stacked 5/7/5 for this contest entry, mystery author. All the rules followed - I find no fault. There were a lot of fine entries - but yours was so positive and I felt better for reading it.
You have my best wishes for the contest (as well as my vote!)
Good luck.
Well done.

I especially enjoyed the last verse of your stacked 5-7-5:
spirit helps one find an experience of peace, in the midst of pain. Good luck, Carolyn

Nice, all very nice 5-7-5's, well constructed and each could stand on it's own merit. However, put together in this manner, as contest rules dictate, it make for a uniquely powerful and positive read.

Excellent work, and best of luck to you.
