Comment from Cecilia Lynne1
Is the following word in the last verse (My Day'd) correct? Should that be "Day's" ?
Well done and well written. Great inspiring message. The chosen art is an asset to your writing. The rhyming is excellent and the poem in all ways captures the spiritual requirement of the contest. With the correction if necessary it should do well as a contest entry.

Thank you very much for your praise of my poem?s message and rhymes. Indeed, the artwork inspired the poem. Day?d is correct as I wanted the past tense to match "sought" in the next line. Rod

Awesome!
Comment from lyenochka
Beautifully penned, Rod! I agree that farmers are so much more in tune with the earth and with how God orchestrates everything because their lives are dependent on Him. Congratulations on your win and 750th post!

I have become familiar with your style. Even though I rarely ever get notified when you post, when I find one of yours, I think to myself, "I bet Rod wrote this one." 😊

I am honored! Thank you. Rod

These abcb quatrains give a good strong image of the sky at sunset or sunrise. It also provides a spiritual feel and thanks to God for the beauty.
Good luck in the contest.
Congrats on your milestone post.
Keep writing and stay healthy

This gorgeous poem fed my soul this morning. What simple illustrations you used with a tremendous power of words to show that God is all around us. I hope it does well in the contest.

Comment from Bill Schott
This poem, Seeking Him, finds the instances where one encounters God's presence in both the simple places and glorious canvas of the sky. Nice.

Comment from Pam (respa)
-Very nice artwork and presentation.
-You wrote a very good poem with
effective imagery and rhyme.
-It flows smoothly from verse to verse
as you paint a vivid word picture of the scene.
-The third verse is a very good example of that.
-A very good concluding verse, too.
-A good entry; good luck in the contest!

Very nicely done. I think an "a" is missing in para 2 line two as you go to __
stand of burr oak trees. Yes? Be well. .....................................................................

I commend the author of this poem. The poem is very well written and
clearly understandable. The rhyming was excellent with feelings expressed in the poem. I have used all my sixes, but this sure deserves one.

Comment from Wendy G
This is a very beautiful poem with thoughtful and excellent presentation and I enjoyed the rhyme, rhythm and smooth metre as well as the theme. It is gentle in tone, speaks of awareness of all that God does for us all daily, and gratitude. Best wishes for the contest.

Comment from Sandra Nelms-Ludwig
This is a good rhyming poem. The rhyme scheme seems to be consistent throughout. The message is clearly stated. The last line in the poem would read smoother if you put an "is" after beauty. Other than that, the poem is well-written. Good luck in the contest.
