I like how your words show faith as a constant journey, we are always traveling on our spiritual path. I like how you mention at the end, God never lets go of our hand. Excellent faith based poem that speaks to the reader.

Comment from Andrea Kepple
Nicely written. There is a real feeling of a journey having been taken. There is the picture of the search for what had always been their waiting for the traveler to see, approach, and be welcomed by.

Comment from Lea Tonin1
Ginda beautiful poem excellently written!
Such choice words you have chosen for your poem. Certainly has put together in magical piece. I adore the last 2 lines of your poem. So there's a lot of times throughout my whole life that sometimes that's all I could hang on to because it rings keep cord with me.
The picture you chose is equally beautiful and when you put that together along with your talent wrap it all up you've got magic!
I see no grammatical error and it's aesthetically pleasing hope you have a great night!

Comment from Anne Johnston
"I continue to soar
in ever-tightening circles
steadying me as
they pull me back to center
into the arms of God
who never once
let go of my hand."
Your words very well express how the Lord is always there for us as we put our faith in Him.

Comment from Bill Schott
This spiritual poem, Ever-widening Circles, presents our seemingly chaotic attempts at living life two tents. We, in the end, discover that we were never off the chain.

Comment from Aiona
What a cool poem! I don't usually care for free verse, but I like that this poem has a structure. The two stanzas demarcate a change in perspective, like the volta of a sonnet. I also like the metaphor of being spun around someone, by holding hands, as if in pair ice-skating. It makes me think about how if in a gyroscope, the narrower the circle, the faster one spins. Kinda like life. Yep, definitely a skillful free verse poem.

Excellent entry for the My Faith Poetry contest. Your journey with God seems fruitful.
the structure makes sense, it draws on emotions and it presents strong images.

Comment from w.j.debi
So true that we must constantly work on our faith so we can stay on the path. You do an excellent job describing how we sometimes circle around it. Great questions to ponder in your second stanza. Excellent summation in the last line.
