This is wonderful, and powerful message, especially for this time of year. Very well written with great imagination, artistic flair and conviction. Great job. God bless.
Melanie--
I thought your poem was beautiful! If one knows him, he again made him think of Jesus. It was very well written and very appropriate; especially since Sunday is Easter.
Thank you for such enjoyable reading.
Check out my latest work under short stories, titled, "He Held My Hand". I'd like to know what you think.

Melanie,
Very good story poem; I like this genre very much. You had excellent rhythm, though one or two enjambments snagged me slightly along the way, but nothing that disrupted the pacing greatly.
Good work,
Doug
I love this more each time I read it. Look for it to appear as the FrontPage Showcase selection for the week of April 10. It'll be on the FW home page. Thanks for this wonderful poem!
Very beautifully done! Great vision and emotions as you unfolded Cleopas' realization. The meter is steady and I, personally, found its gait easy to follow. Just my humble thoughts, Nancy
Melanie, I don't remember much about poetry, except I have not been gifted to write it.
I believe you do. It is very gripping, and flows well.
Each one of could be Cleopas. We should have been on the Cross; but the loving Members of the Triune Godhead knew there was only One Who could fulfill the sacrifice our sins required. What He did made possible our at-one-ment with God.
For some reason, I keep thinking "The Only One."
