Journey of Faith is a beautiful poem of faith. Our life is just that - a journey of faith.

Excellent sonnet rhyming and internal rhyme. Good use of alliteration.

Well done.
Blessings
Janet

His Blood Alone
by Mary Kay Bonfante

Nice entry for the No Rules Poetry Contest. Your poem sounds like a prayer. Your author notes are too long. Good luck in the contest.

Your poem reflects your stalwart faith...
Well rhymed and metered, gracefully shared and enhanced by your author's notes. I find your words most inspiring.

A powerful spiritual offering attesting to the strength of your faith and the joy you get from it and from Him. Your poem makes me think of my mother(which is a good thing ) for her faith and belief in God keeps her warm, comforts her and makes her happy : ))

    Hi, Hitcher. Thank you so much for your awesome review, the five stars and your lovely comments. You probably have the kind of mom who prays for you a lot. Yes, my faith in Jesus brings me hope, joy and purpose. God bless you and your sweet mother, too! - Mary Kay

Dear Mary Kay B.,

I love your poem; it is so beautifully written. So true in life, although I forget A LOT of the time to turn to Him for help and direction. It would definitely make life easier!

Great job,
-K

    Thank you very much, Kamrynn, for your excellent review, the five stars and your honest reflection. I have forgotten sometimes to turn to Him, also, but it gets easier with time and experience, and also as we spend time in prayer, fellowship and the Word. I appreciate your lovely comments, my sister.
    Love and prayers, Mary Kay xoxo

Hi Mary Kay. I read your poem and it is beautifully written. But with all due respect, I simply don't have that kind of faith. I'm pleased for you that you do. Good luck in the contest, my friend. Ulla:)))

    Dear Ulla, thank you so much for your lovely and excellent review, for the five stars and for your honesty. If I may be so bold as to say this, faith is a gift, and you can ask for it -- provided that you want it. And that's as far as I will go! I respect you, for who you are. I apologize for the delay in replying; I don't post often, and I'm not used to answering lots of reviews -- not that I'm complaining -- this was a wonderful surprise! I even got up to the "magic #26" in one of the other items covered under my book balloon.
    I truly appreciate your reading and reviewing this. May God bless you.
    Love, Mary Kay xoxo
