Your format is new to me. Is this free verse? Interesting theme, but I am not clear on your worship. You say Father, Mother, God ... Sounds like confusion. I like this idea of pondering on our thoughts. A calming piece with a lot of heart. Thanks for sharing.

Hello JLR,
You've written a wonderful poem of faith for the contest
that many on fanstory will relate to.There are messages
that those who are open to, can receive, perhaps an angel
in physical form.
An excellent free verse poem. Best wishes in the contest
and to you and family.
Robert.

That was a truly beautiful poem for the Faith contest. I was really moved by the image of this white swan that a messenger from the angels; and that answered so many questions. This poem brings calm and piece to a soul; I wish you luck in the contest, and thank you so much for sharing.

    Eternal Muse, I appreciate your awareness of the words and meanings as we all do have messengers some seen some unseen.

Your poem is like a huge painting made of infinite brush strokes that spark internal feelings that all readers has in their past. You evidence a great command in driving all of us into your World of Faith, and after reading your writing, compare our internal feelings with those brush strokes!
Artwork is magnificent and makes the aura bigger by colour contrast!
Good job!

It was a great poem of finding peace in faith. I liked this image of the dove coming down and lighting on the windowsill, a soft, sublime kind of image, an image of the Spirit gifting you His grace and peace. There's a great soft touch to the rhythm of the language that underscores that theme, alot of these softening 's' sounds that sooth the soul. estory

In my opinion, I was moved by this read - an "Exceptional" write in smooth and lyrical free verse, describing faith in a personal, spiritually illustrated perspective...

Hello JLR, this is a most beautiful faith poem in free verse with every line a gem. I got quite carried away while reading it. My favourite line 'I have Angels in my presence...' So beautiful. This has to be a winner - Good Luck and warm wishes - Dorothy x

'In the silence I sit....
my heart's desire is to shut-out
the several flittering thoughts.
save, but, just one...'
(What a simple but elegant way to word this.)

Enjoyed.

Best of luck in the My Faith contest.
