Lovely poem which draws the read into the descriptions of the "duties" of each part of body which contributes to the whole of commitment. Notes: Line 6: should be "ellusive"; Line 12: comma after "legs" in order to be consistent with the previous pattern of the poem.
Blessings,
Jane

Hi, Deepwater, This may be my favorite of your poems I've read to date. Those vows,taken so sincerely are so precious, and also precarious to keep sometimes. "Faith and sacrifice". You did a gorgeous job on this. Mary

This is another great poem with a deep message within.
The symbols you used in this poem are real, eyes, hands, children, how we lost our soul... I'll hope my English would be better to express all what your poems bring to my mind and soul.
Congratulations!
Laren

I like the theme, but don't find the poem reflective or inspirational as, I think, it was intended. I get lost in the words of this poem. Several lines of the poem are perplexing. Lots of punctuation problems, some of which I have pointed out. (My vision will not permit me to give you more comprehensive feedback.)

The heart(,)can be given (delete comma)

The mind(,) wins with strength of truth, (delete comma)

The temple, your body(add comma here)is given freely in love(delete ,) or taken in whim or revenge.

The hands, earthly importance helps (help)

G,

By reading your poetry, I think I'm beginning to get a feel for how you structure you prose, and why. There is a staccatto cadence and rhythm that remains after having read the piece.

Did you mean 'allusive' or 'elusive'?

Great job. Liked it.

This work has reached the exceptional level

This is an excellent and well written spiritual poem. So much has been said with so few sentences. How examplary to point out how we can use what we have. The metaphores, the comparisons, all fantastic and thought provoking.d
Warmest regards, Marijke

This is a sweet read! I wish this writing was available when I got married 11 years ago - there are a lot of truths here everyone can take to heart, daily! Nice and simple format and flow, great imagery, great job!
