A well deserved winner!!! That was brilliant, Bill, I'm so pleased I got to read this. I love how you've written with the internal rhyme as well as the end rhyme. And the words, well, you supassed yourself with this one, I thought they were amazing and made so much sense. Well done, and congratulations on your win! :) Sandra

I did three different soul pieces that I liked.
Comment from GregoryCody
This read as near prose and poetry. Tough to do but it makes it Immensely powerful when writing in only so many words.
Our soul comes aboard as a gift from the Lord, and a passenger for our life's fate; awesome line
The latter condition of the blazing rendition we should not consider at all; Nice assonance internal rhyme, not to mention a really well put together line.
Eternitys call. Very powerful close.
This is a fantastic piece Bill. Btw my father was a captain in Quantico (where I was born). I hurt my arm otherwise I would've gone into OCS. You're a good man.

Thank you, Gregory. Ooh rah to your dad and sorry you lost your shot at a commission. I appreciate your kind words and I hope we can grow our writing here on FS.
Comment from Spitfire
Super. I like the alternating colors as well as the use of couplets. Nice metaphor in line three. Great advice in the last two lines.

One's soul is forever on trial it rules how our life is and how things end. We must live to the fullest to become one with the world.

Comment from Earl Corp
If I had a six star rating this poem would have earned it. It hits all four of the criteria I use to rate poetry. It rhymes, it makes sense, it's spiritual, and it invokes reader emotions. Very nice job.

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written poem about the soul that is the most important part of our existence and it is important to keep it healthy, fed, and clothed to enter the pearly gates equipped with all the requirements.

A beautiful write that, instead of trying to explain or preach, uses the colorful approach of powerful statements of description and application -- thank you for sharing! :)

Thanks, Yvette, for this kind review.
Comment from Cindy McIntyre
What a beautiful response to this writing prompt. Our soul is so much as you have written in your poem. "Body is cold, heat of our soul is set free." That line really touched me and I loved it. Good luck in the contest.
