Abimbola,
What a beautiful idea to take the opportunity to wish people these things at the beginning of a new month.
We should not restrict ourselves only to Holidays and birthdays for this.
You have written a super poem!
Lenora,
These are a wonderful set of five verses to beautifully encourage someone that needs it.
I know many people that are very grateful for the prayers of others on their behalf.
What a great idea to include a prayer-poem like this in a card!
Jodi,
From what I have studied of the 23rd Psalm, your poem accurately describes the blessing of, "yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil for You are with me."
Nice job!
I don't remember when I first read this, but with many seafarers in my family it almost brings tears to my eyes each time I read it.
Three weeks ago I lost my husband of 59 years he had been my life since I was 15. Looking for a reading for his funeral I found this and it said all I wanted to say. Thank you for this beautiful poem, I shall treasure it.

Me too!
I've been dating this guy for over 6+ years. Could never get him to communicate with me about anything..
He never holds my hand in public. Never kisses me in public. Never introduces me to family or friends. ETC.. But continues to tell me that he loves me when we are in bed. I've never had a guy treat me this way.
What gives?
Hurt and confused!!
That was beautiful and if the poem was about your son I'm am deeply sad that that happened. I lost my sister to suicide so I know the hurt you are feeling, thank you for that lifting poem.
Some good advice. I definitely need to learn to listen more and talk less! I'm very prone to opening my mouth before engaging my brain! Best wishes, Ann.
I fell in love eight years ago, At one point, I decided to pursue her, but her mother rejected our relationship and never accepted my love for her daughter. After two years, we were no longer in contact. During that time, I was very sick; only a doctor and close friends helped me recover. One day, I received a call. When I answered, I heard her voice, very sad and emotional, saying, "Are you Ah..." She explained that she was upset about our previous relationship but had now accepted me. She also told me that her mother wanted to see me. Even then, I received attention from many girls and women, but I rejected their advances because my love for her was stronger than anything else. I feel I loved her more with each passing day. My advice to those who fall in love is to pursue their loved one as soon as possible, because many people in this world try to destroy and break hearts, but true love is worth fighting for.
A very descriptive poem of small things in nature, but tying into big ( important) themes.
I liked when you mentioned at the end, rising for your reward.
