      This is my one of my first poems mainly because to me poems are a lot harder to write. So here it is, hope y’all like it.

      God Keeps

      God keeps His eyes the fallen leaves
      The leaves the the trees deem of no consequence

      God keeps His eyes on the fallen people
      The people that the world deems of no consequence

      If God keeps His eyes on the fallen of the world,
      What right does the world have to say “No consequence”

          That is pretty @Alia 😉 I think the simplicity gives it a soft feeling 😛

          If God keeps His eyes on the fallen of the world,
          What right does the world have to say “No consequence”

          In this bit I think you should take out the “If” at the beginning and maybe add a “they are” between “say” and “NO”.

          Other than that it looks great 😉

            Pretty, @Alia. Just a couple things I noticed.

            God keeps His eyes the fallen leaves
            The leaves the the trees deem of no consequence

            God keeps His eyes on the fallen people
            The people that the world deems of no consequence

            If God keeps His eyes on the fallen of the world,
            What right does the world have to say “No consequence”

            In the first line I think you need to add the word “on” between “eyes” and “the.”
            In the second line you either need to take out the second “the” or add the word “that” in place of the first the. (Sorry I’m so nit-picky. Can’t help myself. 😉 )
            Other than that, it looks pretty good. Good job. 🙂

              Very nice. I like it.
              One quick thing…

              If God keeps His eyes on the fallen of the world,
              What right does the world have to say “No consequence”

              The last line doesn’t really flow well, so maybe write something like, “How can the world say ‘No consequence,'” instead. I don’t know; it’s your poem. 😉
              I really like it, though. The repetition of “no consequence” gives a really nice unity to the poem. Keep up the great work! 😀

                @ingridrd

                here is the updated version.

                oh, and should i change the name?

                God Keeps

                God keeps His eyes the fallen leaves
                The leaves that the trees deems of no consequence

                God keeps His eyes on the fallen people
                The people that the world deems of no consequence

                God keeps His eyes on the fallen of the world
                So what right does the world have to say they are no consequence

                Thanks
