    This was really deep, MaryAnne..

    I like that first line very much, indeed we should not pass judgement, that is His job, not ours..we have no knowledge of what the other has had to endure prior to the situation that makes others want to pass judgement.

    Well done:)

    God bless,

    5/5 Ingrid

    The last stanza to me seemed like you are ready to begin fresh, painting over blemished canvasses.. I liked that a lot. Nicely done..

    First lwet me say thank you kindly for reading my poems of faith and for your wonderful comment.
    It gives me great joy to know that my words are reaching the ears and eyes of so many, from young to old.

    The depth of your words in this beautiful piece sink deep into one's mind and heart.
    Our Heavenly father said, judge not for you shall be judged ten times worse, yet there are people who pass judgement.
    I enjoy reading this sad yet wonderfully penned piece.
    Paul...

    '..as newborn angels hover'
    ^I feel like the usage of hover demolished the beauty this line was supposed to have. When something hovers over you, you dont normally think of it as a good thing.. like dark skies hovering over you.. get what I'm saying? so saying newborn angels hover really destroys the beauty of the presence of angels.

    'I won't keep charity
    ..but paint it over
    ....blemished canvasses.'
    ^A beautiful & uplifting ending. I think this poem can connect easily to the new year we have here. How we paint over blemished canvasses hoping to start anew.

    A wonderfully expressed short write. Nice work.
