Beautiful imagery - and I love the structure of this. Much to enjoy here - and ponder.
Karen Wilber 12/07/07
Beautiful word pictures. I like the repetition at the end of each stanza pulling together what happens in a home group.
Betty Castleberry12/08/07
This holds so many truths; you've said a lot in not too many words. Very nicely done.
Sharlyn Guthrie 12/10/07
When it comes to home groups, I don't think you left one stone unturned! I especially like the second line of each stanza.
Verna Cole Mitchell 12/11/07
Beautifully creative and well crafted

RED PEN: A poem!
You kept each stanza within its own theme.
I could see the pattern, but I with a little work, each line could have a pattern.
1. 2 verbs
2. phrase about kingdom
3. noun phrase
4. adjective phrase
etc.
I liked this part:
"Blurring the line
Between yours and mine"
I like the last lines. They showed the whole reason for the home group.
