Comment from June Sargent
This is a beautiful reflective piece that invites us to ponder on the presence of our Creator in our lives. At the end of the day, when sun sets before moon rises, we can commune with Him and be grateful we lived to see another day. Thank you for the reminder.

Yes, there is nothing so peaceful than communing with God in a natural setting when you are alone. Many thanks for sharing my poem, June, and your very kind praise. Rod

Comment from MissMerri
This is such a beautiful rondeau and so lovely-sounding when read aloud. I love the imagery and as one who enjoys being alone, I could strongly relate to the theme. This will do well in the contest I am sure.

MissMerri, you have made my day! I am thrilled?and honored?to receive such high praise for this rondeau. I am so pleased you can relate to its theme. Many thanks also for those six bright stars.
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written Rondeau about being alone when the sun goes down and where our thoughts may take us at a time when we can appreciate the perfect beauty of God's creation.

Yes, there is nothing nicer than spending the early evening alone in God's world. Many thanks for sharing my rondeau, Sandra.
Comment from Janice Canerdy
The rondeau is a very appealing form/style. Yours is excellent in every respect. Through the use of vivid details, you have painted a lovely blend of nature and appreciation for an awesome sunset.

Comment from Susan Larson
It seems often in our busy, social society, we neglect, or don't even recognize the blessings of being alone, to quietly communicate with God, listen to His voice rather than the television and just be...alone.

This is a finely tuned and metered Rondeau and I enjoyed the tranquillity and ambience of being alone with one's thoughts and enjoying the peace, love Dolly x

Comment from zanya
It's interesting to read a Faith Poem in the Rondeau format - a hint of prayer-like quality with repetition-the tone here is peaceful and meditative -thanks for sharing
