dost thou hear what i hear,dost thou see what i see?yes,but thou dost not see the beayty that i see.thou lookest at the outside, i lookest on the inside.thou lookest at what it appears to be,when i look far and beyond.thou hearest all sounds,but dost not stop to listen,i hearest every sound and recognize one from another.when you thinketh it noise,i thinketh it music.when you seeth it worthless,i seeth it beauty.Ye most learn to look and listen far and beyond.

this poem is about God,and how?if we are made from his image,that we should miss so much,but we do.this poem is to help us relize how important life is and we should take in all the blessings it gives us everyday,to stop and listen and look far and beyond!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for your comment! And suggestion. I didn't think that my grammer was so important, I usually do it right, but I figured since other people write like that, I didn't need to worry about it, but I guess I will.

I love the way how in this poem you show that God is above all of us, even if we think we are doing what we think is our best. Though it could use some revising grammatically, I thought it was very inspirational! Keep writing! :)

it's really uplifting to see a fellow believer expressing their understanding and love for our Savior. good job, keep writing<3 i favorited this to look back and remind myself, when i'm sad and pessimistic, to look up with my arms outstretched.

Mockingbird Song,

Far and Beyond is very uplifting. I like your ability to call the reader to see the glass as half full rather than as half empty. If you were thinking of submitting this piece to your school newspaper you might want to consider fixing the spelling mistakes (beayty to beauty), capitalizing words at the beginning of sentences, and simply rearranging the poem so that it appears as a stanza instead of in paragraph form. Their is meaning in your poem, making the grammatical changes will simply make it appear more polished overall. I hope you find these comments helpful.

Sincerely,

Alice B.
