Wonderful 1-6-1 poem! I'm glad I perused your profile today to see your expert use of internal and end rhymes and repeated assonance to create this spiritual poem with the very difficult structure!

    Thank you so much. I really appreciate your encouragement. I don't really count myself a writer as I have only been doing it consistently for a year, before that just here and there. I have found this site to be very stimulating and it helps me to be creative, and to learn and grow seeing the quality, variety and style of other people's work. Including yours!
    Hugs to you.

You did a great job with your contest entry, Mystery author. Your words plus image pair perfectly. Your poem read smooth with good imagery and rhymes. I like the way you formatted the lines and the color scheme, too.
Best wishes in the contest.
Respectfully, Jan

This is a simple, but meaningful poem packed in a few words. It shows the power of faith.
I like the internal and end rhyme.
Good luck in the contest.
Keep writing and stay healthy

Well done. I am impressed by how you are able to explain the abundant grace of God with this beautiful poem. Thought the way you explained His grace 1. You saw it for yourself. 2. You were flabbergasted by how a Supernatural savior shows mankind so much favor. 3. You praise Jesus for bestowing this grace that defies human understanding. Wonderful work with this piece.

having to rhyme all thee lines is not an easy task when you have only 8 syllables to play with. I'd say you managed it nicely. Your spiritual offering didn't seem forced and flowed freely. Good luck!

    Thank you so much. Yes, it is harder than it first seems to say something meaningful with eight syllables, which include three rhymes. Thanks for your good wishes too. Appreciated.

Your three lined poem Amazing Grace with these words
gazed when someone was amazed

at face of grace - amazed when he saw Our Lords face

praised and he praised the Lord and gave thanks
Nice image of Jesus.

Excellent use of rhyme in this three line poem. I really liked the assonance of the letter "a" throughout the poem.

Very nicely done.
Blessings

Yes, when John Newton gave that ballad style, 8686 waltz beat song, as simple as, and yet so profound, from a repentant, once slave trader's grateful heart, he left a legacy like none other. Beautifully written 1/6/1, well done, good luck, blessings Roy

Your well-chosen six words describe how all should feel upon learning about the Lord and His amazing grace and love--with the response of belief and praise.

As any very-short-poem, your writing is direct and explicit. Words look like surgically - chosen to express your message. I felt your message as positive and prosperous. Wish you the best luck in the contest.
