A poem I write today. @rusted-knight , because I’m interested in what you think. I’m sorry, if you didn’t want to be tagged… Let me know, and I won’t again. (:

Flags being torn,
& flags going up.

Red and blue,
lines drawn across
the field of brothers.

Words of hate,
and words of pride. Pushing, shoving,
hearts moaning a…[Read more]

Hi everyone!

I haven’t been around for a long time… High school and stuff 🙂 It’s a poem I wrote today. It’s a rewriting of something I wrote earlier today, while and after a really hard time. I hope it will encourage, help, or just make you smile 🙂

As always, I’m totally open to any kind of criticism, whether grammatical or artistic…[Read more]

That was beautiful @eitan .

Hi, Eitan. I’m sorry that you had a hard day.

I think the line should be “how lonely and miserable I became” instead of “what…”

I always love your poetry. I love how much you focus on God’s love and goodness. Thanks for posting this! This poem was relatable. 🙂

@eitan This was beautiful, thank you. I’m sorry you went through this time, but it’s beautiful that you have come out the other side of this with hope in your heart and new strength in Jesus.

From a grammatical standpoint, I spotted one line… “There are no cold and horror – I do not shiver” should be “There is no cold and horror – I do not…[Read more]

So, today was hard… But in the end, God gave me hope and rest. I’m even a little cheery as I write those lines 😉

This is the translation of the original Hebrew. I hope it’ll help, encourage or just make someone smile 🙂 Any critique, grammatical correction, or anything else is welcome.

Your love and Your faithfulness

You gave my heart…[Read more]

Computer again…

I found this poem. (It has thee’s and thou’s) But has rymne and meter.
It is true.

Approach, my soul, the mercy–seat
Where JESUS answers prayer;
There humbly fall before his feet,
For none can perish there.
Thy promise is my only plea,
With this I venture nigh;
Thou callest burdened souls to thee,
And such, O LORD, a…[Read more]

@sam-m Thank you!!

Oh, just a typing mistake… Like, I know how to write know 😉 *embarrassed, but thankful*.

@eitan

Hi, Eitan! I really like your poem. I love the hope and truth that you pour into your writing.

Also, (because you’re really serious about grammar), I think you meant: I can know this for sure.

I look forward to reading anything else you post. 🙂
