I KNOW I KNOW!! *snickers* And for all you silly people who think that this has something to do with the Christian God...y'all are funny. Fabulous work darling. =)

I like your author's note.Is authoress really a word? If it is, I never knew that. Hm... I'll have to look it up. Anyway, that's pretty funny.I loved this poem. Yes, God deserves all the credit. Poems like these makes me want to give everything to Him all over again. I mean, when you think about it, everything that we have here is all His. Everything we have He gave us.One nitpick, though, and I don't know if you agree with this (some people don't, and that's okay and understandable, but you know...), but I like to capitalize the H in "He" or "His" or "Him" when referring to God or the Lord. You know what I mean? Again, recognizing His importance. *shrugs*Anyway, awesome poem. It was really good and it shows that you put a lot of emotion into it. I enjoyed reading it.Keep writing! God Bless,Sarah

Lets see... What you are "actually" talking about. My first guess, since there is a qoute from the bible at the top and since you use certain words, was you are talking about the christian god. However, your "note" implies otherwise. Perhaos you are talking about a boyfriend or a certain other someone who has "rescued [you] through the sheer powers of love and devotion."

Again, these are just sentances... there is no certain scheme to them. But they are well written sentances.

In response to mine. I wrote it in the 8th grade. I'm a junior now. I am planning to update and make a more proven thesis. I had gotten an A on it from my teacher, who is excellent. He wasn't just an english teacher. I went to an art school where all of the classes were equal to that of a public school's advanced or gifted classes. I do not think my essay is shallow however. I still believe that those three things can symbolize death and life.

You shouldn't jump to conclusions about symbolism? What the... It is my firm belief that all poetry and fiction reflects something of the author, and if it is good: has symbolism. Whether the symbolism is very minimal or a lot it still has it, unless (like i said) it is pure crap. I'm not making a judgement about your "poem" about symbolism or not, but rather about your "note".
The reason i pute poem in " " is because there is no scheme to it. You just wrote sentances and put them into lines. I would consider this a paragraph, a monologue, a "deep" thought. All you did was reiterate the idea of soul mates and that had been around for years. However, I would say that the sentances are well written.

Great poem--even better than the first, except for the whole element of parallels to Christianity, although honestly I still haven't got the slightest as to who you're talking about...but I'm not that up on mythology/religions other than christianity/judaism/islam. Ah well. Still great stuff, and a moral well stated.

Something tells me it's not Jesus...is it Krishna? idk. Lovely poem, though.

Wow, beautiful. So, you're talking about a lover, then? Nice work:D

I wish I could say that I did know who that was. Some people on the reviews say it's not a Christian poem. So, who IS it about? Great job:)

::giggles:: That random bible person made me giggle:)

::has not an idea::

But no matter. I believe I can say who you aren't talking about.

That's a pretty poem.

And I like Dan's quote of Song of Solomon too...what a pretty book. Especially in the Hebrew...

~Sayrah~

Was it really about crows? Kewelies. I think a couple of your reviewers took it as a Christian poem... ah well, whatever makes 'em enjoy it, lol! But to the ppl who thought that... go read some of her other religious poems and perhaps you will get a surprise...

Ciao,

::proudly collects her ten points::

That is one of my favorite Bible verses...and this is an excellent poem to go along with it. Very good job. God bless, and write on!

10 My lover is radiant and ruddy,
outstanding among ten thousand.
11 His head is purest gold;
his hair is wavy
and black as a raven.
12 His eyes are like doves
by the water streams,
washed in milk,
mounted like jewels.
13 His cheeks are like beds of spice
yielding perfume.
His lips are like lilies
dripping with myrrh.
14 His arms are rods of gold
set with chrysolite.
His body is like polished ivory
decorated with sapphires. [11]
15 His legs are pillars of marble
set on bases of pure gold.
His appearance is like Lebanon,
choice as its cedars.
16 His mouth is sweetness itself;
he is altogether lovely.
This is my lover, this my friend,
O daughters of Jerusalem.
Song of Solomon 10 -16

I love the use of the imagery of lover and your personal relationship with the divine. I've included the Song of Songs that reflects your use of the Lover in a romantic yet also a savior style. It is odvisious that you find great comfort in your Lord and Savior.

May you find salvation in your Lord and Savior. Pax

Ten points to me!

Not sure what to say that wouldn't be obvious other than I love your use of symbolism.
