I love your Faith Defined poem. Like how you applied the spiritual truths found in the Scriptures and old hymns to define your faith."It is the substance of unwavering hope and the evidence of things unseen." "It is the rock on which I stand." I also like how you end by stating that Faith builds a fortress with a grain of sand and calms the storm in me.

Wow! God bless you, Patrick! That Scripture was so true I just had to include it. I am so glad that you liked it! The stanzas you pointed out were my favorites as well so I'm thrilled that they stood out for you too. Thank you again!

Very true. You've managed to describe it appropriately keeping all the rhymes intact. The abab schemd ensures that the music keeps going. Good.

I think that you have indeed done it justice...this is a very fitting tribute to your faith and you can tell just by the flow of your words how much it truly means to you, and that in and of itself is beautiful!

Great tribute. I found this to be written well, and with a clear picture. That's important as poetry should always be understandable to the masses.
Well done.

Comment from Hollyhock
A very effective description of the depth and strength of your faith.
You include all the imponderables of faith which we cannot explain, only feel and trust.
Your rhyme and rhythm are consistent throughout, well done.
Good luck in the contest.
I particularly appreciated the imagery of the penultimate line which really conveys the power of true faith.
