Well written. The words are well chosen. This is descriptive of eagles and their behavior. Good spiritual message here, too. Good rhythm.

Your clever poem should be a competitive entry in the contest mentioned. Your reference to the eagle, coupled with your advice to lean on a higher power, combine to present a good read. Well done.

A magnificently great mono rhyme write about the story of life in our faith and belief of God.
Like the soaring eagles we are just as graceful if not more in our dealings with life.
We can be rest assured everything had been planned by God and we just have to soar with the eagles and ride the test flight out for good measure.
Do not feel depressed but try to fly high with flying rainbow colors. Don't let the draft catch us falling swiftly down!
Great write in a spiritual truth about God and how we should view life with a positive outlook.
Cheerio, hugs, Ritchie. :))

Thank you Ritchie for the wonderful review and comments. I appreciate your time and all that you have said. I enjoyed reading what you wrote almost as much as I did writing
'Eagles rise'. :-)

This is a very nice entry. A few are near rhymes - I don't know how closely that will be judged. I loved the use of form that you had. The theme is clear. The words are very expressive.

Comment from Leineco
Nicely done..despite mono-rhyme's penchant for becoming predictable and often boring, you have used the rhyme well, and I never felt you were struggling to keep the -est sound going. :-)
Also, you told an inspiring tale :-)

What a nice review. I appreciate your critique, it means a lot to me.
Comment from Jeanie Mercer
This follows the monorhyme pattern throughout all stanzas, according to contest criteria, and it has a nice rhythm and flow as well. The repeated two lines at the end is a nice final touch. [Tiny nitpick: In third stanza, "woe's" need no apostrophe.] Good luck to you, Jeanie Mercere

Comment from Janet Foor
For this poem you are blessed
I want to say that I'm impressed
The world can tell that I confessed
You should win the new contest.
You can see why I didn't enter the contest.
Good luck. You did a great job.

Comment from Capricorn30
A well-crafted writing as great lessons can be learned from nature;
An analogy of reaching our dreams as mighty wings soar into eternal horizons.
God indeed has created a treasure trove of wonderful sights.
