To Bear Our Cross Poem by Meggie Gultiano

poem of wisdom..to have faith to GOD..a simile...that we carry on whatever difficulty we have and trust GOD that someday this burden will ease...nice conjoined words into poetic verses of wisdom...10

from Sandra Fowler..here's the message: How unfortunate there should be any question raised about such an inspiring poem. But, perhaps, the'questioner meant well. I believe that 'bear' is correct here. Do you know the old hymn, 'Must Jesus Bear the cross Alone? ' that is a wonderful example of the use of the word as you have it. Have a great poetry day. Love, SandraX

When I think of love, I don't think of just pleasant, happy things, but I believe that true love must be sacrificial involving struggle, pain, suffering, or whatever you might want to call it. I think your poem bears that out. I also think that maybe we should write not just with words but with images. Our words can and do simultaneously involve images and meanings, but this might be accomplished effectively by the spelling of words. When I was in High School and had to write a story for my English exam, afterwards I remembered that I wrote 'with his bear hands' because I was thinking that his hands were as strong as a bear even though I intended to write 'with his bare hands'. My nephew in the second grade colored the sun black and the teacher remarked that the sun was not black. I suppose she would have told that famous painter that he should not have painted the cow blue. I am glad that your poem is not bare of lofty and deep meaning.

I fellt that you were lead by the hand of Christ on the writing of this piece. You have made it so clear. God Bless, Linda

A lovely tribute to your God Meggie. Thank you. Ann

An inspirational reminder of our limits. God rings so many bells we fail to listen to... Thanks, Meggie, shine on.

God can be a day late.......but he is always on time.... sometime we are praying for something...he knows our needs before us... when he has already set our prayers into motion..... even before we pray.... I can say this because he sent me......You..... ONCE AGAIN A DIVINE POETRY YOU WRITE.......
