Well Done ~ Brooke
This poetry speaks of survival and perseverance. It flows
beautifully and is a good motivational piece as well. The
attached photo is a calming and picturesque accent that
compliments and enhances the message. Thank You for your
creation.

Comment from Joan E.
I enjoyed your repeats and rhymes, along with the shifting rhythms. The picture and color background you selected are so congruent with your Rondeau. I particularly admired the contrast between "huddled" and "stir," along with your "song(s)" and "cloak" metaphors plus your personification of "sorrow". Best wishes in the faith contest with this uplifting piece. Hugs- Joan

First, I must thank you for the poetry lesson, I did not know what a rondeau was. Second, it was very well executed. I enjoyed the strong imagery as always, but I also really enjoyed the uplifting theme as well. Good luck in the contest!

Comment from Giddy Nielsen-Sweep
Brooke, this is a lovely poem and a wonderful entry for the competition. I'm having trouble with the rhyming words but realise it is down to the accent, because you frequently have trouble with mine as well. I guess that's one of the beauties of fan story. My very best wishes for the competition, Giddy

Comment from Righteous Riter
This piece meets the criteria of the Rondeau poem. The rhyme scheme is on point. The rhyming is good. The flow is smooth as I see nothing that I would change in this piece.

Comment from Joy Graham
I love love this faith poem for this contest. I was disappointed with the results of the last contest and sure appreciate you bringing true faith to the table this time around. To me faith is serious not something to be joked about. I love that you used the rondeau, one of my favorite poetry forms. Excellent iambic meter, excellent repeating line. You have a winner in my eyes :)

Comment from Zue65
My dear friend the notes are definitely informative, but I read this poem not for its rhymes because you are master in that genre, nothing to comment on that. But I love the message in it, our faith restores everything and that is more important than all the rhymes combined. This is actually my mantra when I write, more of the message than the form, otherwise I will be guilty of painting by the numbers alone. You however is a master of both , the vessel and the content matched perfectly. God bless.
