  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Feeling misunderstood,
And like no one was by my side,
I clung to my only love,
Named Jesus,
With his great compassion,
He carries me,
To a safe place,
Called Eternity,
Where all my current problems are no more,
And with jesus I dwelt,
While the Joy pf the Lord was full,
And engolfing the heavens,
Where the joy of the Lord continually flowed,
And always went on never stopping,
At anyone but the Saviors first command.

Choppy and forced, there doesn't seem to be a true rhyme or pattern to this poem. It's basically a lower form of chopped up prose. Try tweaking with it to add more unity, because as it is, it's just a glop.

Keep trying...

Hi A.P.,

I thought the poem was okay . The last line was a little difficult to decipher ;
but after reading it 3 times I think I caught your gist ... that no one can cause the joy the Lord gives us to cease .

Oh , and one small point of improvement - it's engulfing not engolfing , but I knew what you meant , anyhow .

Peace in the Beloved ,

I understood the meaning of the poem....poems do not have to rhyme. Not many say bad things about my stuff but I know they are not the best. But to me, my poems are the greatest because they say what is deep inside of me that I can't say any way else. If people understand it and feel what you felt when you wrote it...that is what makes it good

Your poem carries special meaning. No matter how people critique you, it is yours. The words came from your heart. Only you can comprend what you mean. ;) The world can despise you or judge you but God will always love you. I thought it had a deep message in it. I enjoyed reading it. :thumbsup: God bless :hug:
