G'day Carolyn, you know that I always love to read and review your work and this one did not disappoint. The Lord is there for us and we need to let him in mate. No picture is needed with a perfect message like this, cheers Fez

your chosen words allow the reader to see and feel the way of the Lord is not hard to follow if we desire and life is too short to look away
good visual to portray message
good enjambment through sentences to allow flow
flows easy to understand
its not the picture that makes a poem its the written words
cheers Smoothiecool

Comment from Michaelk
As much as I love Dean's poems with all the pictures and little videos, I think a poem or any writing for that matter should stand on its own. It should be just as strong or emotional in black and white as in a million colors.
I think this poem is. Strangely enough this poem has touched upon feelings I've been having lately, like I've been running with no goal.
I suppose it's time for a little re-evaluation.
Good rhyme and rhythm, great message.

Carolyn, as much as photos add to the writing, I think that a poem or story should stand on its own merit sans picture. To me, yours does. Nicely done, nicely worded... John

Carolyn; you definitely were not in need of the picture to get your message across before your writing itself was enough to completely get across the message quite clearly. Your meter in your writing though does need some work is even though the message does come across it doesn't flow as well. Some timing and cadence needs to be reworked so the reading is much more easier, clearer and fluid. The topic is very enlightening and truly inspirational in your resourceful imagination was very inventive and ingeniously creative. Thank you for sharing and posting and may the good Lord be with you always Carolyn.

Alex you are so kind, thank you for this fine review, I will go back and work on the meter so it will flow better. I'm glad the message comes through even though it is inferior in the form. I appreciate your time my friend,
:-) Carolyn

I love the repeated lines Carolyn my friend, if we deny Him, isn't it a little more than a little foolish, but downright stupid, I think we would need to stop and think, which is the no brainer way? Jesus! Beautifully composed, you not only make your point so well but very eloquently as well, I'll go right out now, as Peter said, "where else do we go, Lord, only you have the words to eternal life!" Well done, my friend, blessings, Roy.
