This is a lovely poem. You did a fine job of writing on topic while delivering a powerful message.

On Monday, on the message boards and the FW Facebook group, there will be a prompt to Drop a Hint about this week's entries. If you're looking for more feedback, consider going to FWFB or the forums and leave a hint about your title. But make sure you wait until you see my prompt on Monday.
Poems aren't usually my thing, but as I reread this beautiful poem, I felt the lump in my throat and tears filled my eyes. The last part filled me with hope too, which sometimes I avoid because hope has crushed me in the past, but your words started to heal my hurt.

I love this. And it doesn’t matter how big or trivial we think our sins are, we all need fresh starts.

Congratulations on your 1st Place EC. Happy Dance!
Poetry is not my thing. But this one was simple and easy to read for me. What I liked about it, is it gives all who read it, hope.
