Thanx for the review, Bill. ;)
Comment from Jesse James Doty
This makes an excellent point. With what has gone before, is so true, and a lot of folks don't 'get' that idea. Seeking peace is whatever one wants to find. Not some preconceived notion ascribed by others. I love the abstract image you chose. It suits the poem very well, showing the eye of the soul looking out onto what may come to pass for each of us. Well written and an important point, made with grace and dignity.
Take care, Jesse

I like the inspirational and thought provoking nature of this. I like the line "fallen but not broken." I can think of some scriptures that speak to this very fact. I enjoyed reading this well written work. Well done!

Comment from June Sargent
What a profound statement made in a few short lines! We are the sum total of our experiences. And we may need a little glue to hold us together after a fall. But scars can have a beauty of their own. Great sentiments expressed creatively.

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written poem about eternal life that we seek every day of our lives. The peace we can find only when we have faith in God and know He will provide everything we need.

This is a poignant right as our memories serve to haunt us at times and we seek peace from them as forgetting is not easy, a cleverly written piece, love Dolly x

Comment from C T Curtis
I like the picture accompanying this well-written, very meaningful poem and it is easy to understand. I think it is very well-done. Hmm - I wonder "come before" or "gone before" within the last phrase.

Comment from way2gokevs
A very worthy entry to the contest, M8......... Meaningful words spell out what the poem is intending to portray. Best of luck.
Query, as many have pointed out to me on this site............ is punctuation necessary when you have line breaks..... Many say , not.
Have a great day, cheers, Kev.
