Your poem is truly uplifting, and my secret as well of beating the blues. I find looking at my blessings, helping others, and not focusing on my own pain, things seem to work themselves out. Good luck in the contest.

Excellent words of advice, and it was thoughtful to acknowledge that it might take time (a prayer ... some time ahead, if not today). Your whole poem is meaningful , thoughtfully written, and very encouraging. Best wishes in the contest.

Enjoyed reading your poem.
God's nature is displayed within your poem.
We should feel blessed for each seed that grows.
If we talk to God it might make things clear.

This is a very lovely piece of uplifting poetry, inspiring the reader to be soothed through talk and meditation. Rhyme and rhythm work nicely through this piece and the artwork chosen is calming and very complimentary. Nicely done!
