This reads well with you use of enjambment. My attempt at a minute poem read clumsy. Yours flows like the water from the well of which you tell. Excellent theme.

He did that, poet. He also told her she was living with someone who was not her husband. Times has not changed much, but people do, thanks to Jesus. Hope you win

A lovely reminder of the woman at the well bible story. The woman believed His word and told others about him, good message for us to emulate. Good use of rhyming and good luck in the contest. Faye

The Biblical story is often quoted in reverence to Jesus' ministry. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a very good read.

Comment from Pam (respa)
-What a beautiful photo to begin your poem.
-Good use of rhyme.
-The description of the woman's emotions in the first two stanzas is very good.
-The use of "quenching water" and "thirst no more" is very good in the last stanza.

Beautiful summation of such an important event. The waters that you shall drink from or be bathed clean of your sin. Water is such an integral part of biblical history.
