W.j. Debi, A wonderfully written spiritual poem that is very inspirational, enlightening and quite stimulating. A very unique and pleasurable style of poetry that was quite enjoyable to read. Your rhyme and rhythm was very well done in need of your rhymes were forced, labor strained and the rhythm flow smoothly throughout your poem. This made it very easy for me to read it clearly. Thanks for sharing and posting and may you have a good one always.

I have a six left, and I'm giving it to you for this awesome poem! I loved it all, the title, the picture, the wonderful wording, the poetry form, just wish you hadn't missed the contest! You truly couldn't have done any better than this, and love this the most:

Father, let my prayer also be
Thy will
Not mine
Be Done

I say Amen to this!!! I have to Bookcase for I'll read over and over again. God bless. . .Sharon

    Thank you, Brooke. I saw this form for the first time when they had the contest. Interesting format. I found it hard to count words instead of syllables though.
    I appreciate your analysis and generous review. Debi

The last night that Jesus spent on earth, his thoughts were on others and not himself. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a good read.

Wow, Debi, what emotion this has! I think you've outdone yourself with this wonderfully written, very spiritually moving poem. And your very first Trinet too?

Double Wow!

    Thank you for such an encouraging review, Dean. Yes, my first Trinet. I never even heard of the form until a week ago when I stumbled across the results of the contest. I just have to keep trying something new.

    Thanks for the double wow. You have me smiling. Debi

    You're quite welcome, Debi. Had I had a six star review left to award, it most definitely would have gone to you.

I love the art work very much for these words.

Christ suffered for us all.
He knew the pain
He would have.
He was scared
He asked if this ordeal may not happened.

He went ahead with the suffering for us all.

The last words Christ spoke with his father. Humbling himself to die for others and their sins. Excellent in deed. Even the lay out on how it lined up like a cross.

What a shame you missed the contest for you surely hit the mark with this sad, yet breathtakingly beautiful spiritual poem.
The trinet format is accomplished perfectly and with great ease whilst the spiritual message is so powerful and deeply moving.
I truly wish I had a six star to give for you relly deserve it.

    I appreciate the virtual six, Seken, but even more the wonderful comments. I'd never even heard of a trinet until I saw the results of the contest, but I wanted to give it a try. Thank you for the encouragement. Debi
