This is a nicely rhymed and wise poem. We all a heartbeat from eternity and being bereft for squandering chancess with missing out on eternity with God is putting it mildly. We need to be wise and make sure we are on the right road.

While is not easy to always do the right thing, The result of trying pays dividends..
Comment from Wayne Fowler
Excellent!
Though I am not a poet, that doesn't prevent me from appreciating rhythm and rhyme. And I love the message. You have captured Christianity.
Good luck in the contest.

Thanks Wayne. Listen Christianity is much more that a title. Many who adopt the title are from being Christ like. They rarely do what Jesus would do. This means they are either confused or just imposters.

Thank you for sharing your God given wisdom within this poem. Yes, we are not promised tomorrow or even the rest of today. God sent Jesus to model so many things for us so we know what's expected and one of the main things was to love.

Thank you, my dear, dear friend. I am so pleased that you enjoyed my post. Doing the right thing is challenging, especially when we have to deal with the evil influence of Satan the Devil. Yet we must do our best to resist him.

With God's help we can resist him.
Comment from Jessica Wheeler
This is a beautiful and poignant piece, Nomi. It has a musical quality and reads like song lyrics to me. The concluding line is my favorite, and offers a significant word of advice that others would be wise to follow.

Thank you so much. Your review comments are like music to my eyes and ears.
Comment from Dawn Munro
Your poem resonates with me, as I am quite sure it will with anyone in his or her (shall we say) "Golden Years"... (lol). We get too soon old and too late smart, it's said. Nicely done.

Comment from Terry Broxson
Nomi, a six for this poem would be a way to say Amen! But I'm out of sixes, so an "Amen" will have to do. We do not know how long we have. I will try to go as long and hard at it as I can and have no regrets when it's over. Well done. Terry.

Thank you Terry. A positive from you is better than a six.

-Good artwork and nice presentation, nomi.
-Your notes are appreciated.
-You wrote a good poem with a good topic.
-I like the style with rhyming couplets.
-Effective use of nature imagery to help make your points.
-A good transition from the "lofty trees" and "bountiful seas"
to the evil that some people display.
-You do a good showing how "the Creator was hurt"
and "Jesus advised against hate."
-A very good concluding couplet that I also agree with.
-Well done. Hope you have a great 2024!!!

Comment from GWHARGIS
This should be embroidered on a pillow. Some people need to see ot daily. I'm not sure what makes some people chose wrong over right. I try daily and fail daily to be the person I know He wants me to be. But I do try. Some days are better than others. This was an excellent and inspirational poem. Gretchen

Thank you so much Gretchen. The very reason Jesus had to come to th eart is that no one born of Adam and Eve was perfect, and perfection was required. The best that any of us can do is to try.
Comment from Jesse James Doty
We all need to be careful with the time we have left. I agree wholeheartedly. Whether we are old or young the time clock has begun and we face the maker when our time runs out. The clear message is one we all need to heed.
Thanks for the warning.
