Question: Under a brighter son...A sun that will burn upon us
(Did you intend two different spellings of the word "sun?"

I read your Uplifting poem with interest and focus, and enjoy every bit of it. I love the imagery of summer and the sunshine that comes with the Son of God. Thanks for sharing your work. Good luck in the contest. Take a second look at line six from bottom. I guess you meant 'son' and not 'sun'.

Your enthusiasm is contagious and your metaphoric write seems to want us to stand and cheer... cheer summertime and life. Great job on this verse and I wish you luck in the contest! I would mention the font is a bit confusing and made me stumble through a few lines. :)

Do you mean son vs sun in this line

Under a brighter son
A sun that will burn upon us

Suggestion: Maybe change the color and style of font. It will read better.

I definitely found this uplifting. Summer usually represents uplifting things so good call for using it.
This is a great free verse with a touch of prose that put a warming smile upon my face.
Best wishes in the contest!
