Beautifully visual and poetic! I loved ever bit of it. You are such a talented writer! I can't say that enough.

I knew I was about to read something remarkable. It is truly a masterpiece.

I must comment publicly on this...

Words fail me. I am honored beyond what ANYONE can imagine by your comment!

Patrick - A small gem of a story-poem. I loved it!

The comments here...they have all raved...and then you captured me too.

Vivid imagery made this the story it is; powerfully scribed on paper with ink that will never wash away.

Don't you love it, when one moment the page is blank and then when the story is finished, you suddenly have something that will last forever. This is what i thought as i read this finally scribed tale.

That first line...I wanted to grab that lovely 'the biting north wind' and make it the first four words, so powerful were they. If you could find it in your heart to do that, I wish you would.

'The biting north wind'....what an entrance!

Good job. extremely impressed.

That was a superb and eloquent piece of literary art. It spun a tale in my mind so vivid that it was almost tangible. Sarah's Canticle is sure to stay with me for a long, long while.

Loved every minute of it.

Amazingly well done, as always. Sarah's madness is at once beautiful and frightening. Keep up the great work, Pat! :)

Okay Patrick,
Don't rub it in. You're really, really good. Seriously. You seem to improve with every piece of work you post on this site. I recently read some runner-up short stories for the Pulitzer Prize and yours could very well have been one of them. Keep'em comin.'

Sarah and her belief in "All things are possible...

This is a flowing masterpiece..words are inadequate...emotionally moving...thank you for the great read..p

Sarah made it possible because of her strong faith. The Apostle Peter walked on water, until fear overcame him and his faith wavered.
Great story Pat..loved it a lot. Can't add more to all the previous comments.
