  I absolutely love the poetic style and the thought-provoking nature of '"THE CARDS"'. The use of biblical references, such as Jacob and Esau, adds a profound depth to the poem. The idea that this war could be seen as the hands of God is both intriguing and thought-provoking.
  
  The flow and rhythm of the poem are captivating, and the use of questioning throughout the verses adds to the overall impact. The line "What is not understood is the Goodness of His Mother Nature" is particularly captivating and highlights the importance of contemplating the divine message being sent to us.
  
  To create an even stronger impact, one suggestion for improvement could be to further explore the concept of Fate and how it relates to the war being described. This could help to develop a deeper understanding of the message being conveyed.
  
  Overall, '"THE CARDS"' is a beautifully crafted poem that not only captivates the reader but also encourages reflection on profound universal themes. Well done! more »

    thanks. But I should have won. Highlighting the war was my way if defining the true meaning behind the cards or the hands of God as we are dealt. Life has many roads but to choose the right one requires wisdom. more »
