I do like how the second stanza starts.. like the high times were owed to the person. But before asking self "why am I silent"
It could be perceived as god speaking. Our gods grace the thing large and small, while we tend to ignore these "blessing" at our "mightiest" times. Which with out punctuation, it could be seen as god stating or mocking us.  maybe even lead to the question do we model our own gods and wonder why there's no answer. Like I said I don't know.

critical is good/mod
Hi: As the moderator has said again critical is good and leads to improvement and learning  When many people feel all is lost, they cry to God.  If they believed their cries were answered in good times why are they not thankful and not speak when things are good.  Either they don't believe their cries were answered by God, or they are not thankful and don't speak. The last stanza shows a repeat of troubles: some people may think it's because they either, one do not think God answered their cries, or secondly, they are too busy being happy and are not grateful. The silence of God has been a at issue in religious thinking, and the poem merely s suggesting an area for thought.  Perhaps people do model their own gods. That's a question for each person to decide. Thank you very much for your critique and taking your time to read it and I see think about it. Loretta
