Isolation and loneliness can be scary emotions. They make you feel alone in the world and hopeless. That is when grace is needed and found as in your poem.


Good luck and keep writing

Wonderful job you did with your entry. The flow was very nice. Your thoughts are expressed and described well. The theme was good. The artwork complemented your poem.

There was no SPAG. No typos. No homophones. No problems at all.

I look forward to seeing you again.

Love you,

Oatmeal

Beautiful photo that complements your poem perfectly. I have never experienced this, but can relate to it. You added a religious touch to it. Complete isolation at night, hope of faith at dawn. Good rhyme. Best wishes for the prompt.

A very well-written two stanza poem. I love waking up in the stillness of the morning, before alarm clocks sound or the sun rises. I listen to the birds outside my window and I an thankful to be alive to live another day.

A thoughtfully expressed rhyming poem and no I haven't ever felt that isolated thankfully. When a new day dawns it really does reveal hope I'm sure...a little faith doesn't hurt either and that is evident in your lovely poem. Nicely done and although not metered perfectly, it had a free flowing unencumbered feel about it.
Cheers P

Very nice. I like your use of metaphors for darkness to represent hell's damnation and light "revealing hope's new day." You go from "Seeds of doubt are planted by the shadow's spawn" to certainties that "our faith will usher grace at early morn."

Thank you for sharing your two stanza poem.

I can connect to the emotions of this poem, which a good poem should do. I think there is a reason so many people are afraid of the dark or silence, and I think your poem shows that. Darkness and silence make us afraid of what we can't see, and also breeds ugliness. However, your poem does not focus on the dark, but the knowledge that the light returns. Line six is a little unclear. I am not sure what the pronoun they is referring to. I also think that since you use punctuation throughout the poem, there should be a period at the end.

This is an excellent entry for the Two Stanza poem contest. The question asked in the first stanza and the use of the word 'but' in each end line is very effective and creative. Great work - best of luck in the competition. ~DD

"Complete isolation" is an extremely well-written and thought-provoking piece. This poet's work was a pleasure to both read and review.
