Faith
A Villanelle
I was very tempted to do another tautogram, but the opening song of "Voyage" got to me again as it always makes me think of someone special to me.

I get the romantic feeling from your muse . You would make a great Hallmark Card writer for sure.
The King of Villanelles did it again! Awesome poem!
This was wonderful Mike. Thanks for sharing!
Proud of you for exercising self control today! But now I'm curious about the inspiration and Tautogram that tempted you... π€

Inspiring poem. Nicely done.
A muse is always a nice thing to have. Very beautiful poem! Thanks for writing this!
That's lovely. Well done.
It's always nice to have a muse. Well done.
A wonderful tribute to your muse, and ABBA sounds like a good choice for writing music today. (They're in my music folder, of course.) Well done, Mike!
Thank you for sharing this beautiful villanelle, "Faith." It's clear that the person who inspired this poem holds a very special place in your heart and creative process. Your use of imagery and repetition creates a sense of flow and unity throughout the poem, and the final couplet ties everything together perfectly. Keep writing and sharing your work!
