    Drink from the faith fountain...
    That was a really inspirational piece that revolves in the saying that faith can move mountains.

    And I agree and believe so too.

    Well written, I like the rhymes.

    Your descriptive words of faith are wonderful and have been well written. What i really liked was the rhyming part you gave to this piece, they were not forced and well placed that they made the poem flow smoothly.

    "A knowing buried deep inside
    your heart of hearts so dear.
    A belief safe guarded by your soul
    that will never disappear."
    Faith is something either proven fact or subjectively referred to as 'fake' by different people with different angles to their own theories, yet if a person believes, those things don't really matter. I love how you penned that here..
    Usually, rhyming poetry give some sort of incoherence, but the rhymes here are perfect for the piece, and it suited the cadence and atmosphere presented.
    "So...in rem like stillness, I challenge you thus,
    to drink from faith('s) pure fountain.
    And one day, like prophets of ore,
    you too ...may move a mountain."
    --- do you mean "REM-like stillness"? REM-rapid eye movement?
    The ending was beautifully written. Keep it up :)

    "Faith - the power of our mind
    to believe if something's true.
    In a person, place or thing
    that's never seen by you."
    Good beginning :)

    "A knowing buried deep inside
    your heart of hearts so dear.
    A belief safe guarded by your soul
    that will never disappear."
    So far I really like how you are wording this, the flow is great.

    "It's yours alone to keep and hold,
    to cherish your (whole) life through.
    How much you wield, a simple choice,
    with yours... what will you do?"
    Again the flow is amazing:)

    "For what if like a diamond,
    it's pure existence is so rare.
    To find it with such purity,
    Only the wisest man would dare."
    I don't thing the For should be at the beginning of this sentence it kind of throws off the flow also I feel the is is not needed. Perhaps you should just have the line as "What if like a diamond, it's pure existence so rare." I really liked how you put this stanza though. Good job.

    "As few can harness such a power
    and master its true creed.
    Where those that have, still wielded less,
    than a tiny mustard seed."
    I kind of feel that this stanza didn't come so easily to you and it seems a little forced.

    "In rem-like stillness, I challenge you thus,
    to drink from faiths pure fountain.
    And one day, like prophets of ore,
    you too ...may move a mountain."
    I loved the imagery you used here and this was by far the best ending i think that could have been put here. Great write I enjoyed the read!

    I love how you started the poem with a definition like statement. Very clever. :)

    "For what if like a diamond,
    it's pure existence is so rare.
    To find it with such purity,
    Only the wisest man would dare."

    I also loved the simple, unforced rhyme patter and flow of the poem. This was truly amazing. :)

    5/5

    I agree with Fly High, stunning and just amazing. Your words took my breath away. :)
    Only thing I had a problem with the "ur" kind took a small luster from the poem. :( But that's just me, I rather don't like shortening of words like that.

    Still, 5/5 :)

    For what if like a diamond,
    it's pure existence is so rare.
    To find it with such purity,
    Only the wisest man would dare.

    As few can harness such a power
    and master its true creed.
    Where those that have, still wielded less,
    than a tiny mustard seed..

    Your thoughts r so strng in these stanzas..
    Its nt easy to write on such topics bt u wrote it so well.

    This is so beautiful! You never know where faith can take, even when you know that it can defy the impossible.
