Brooke - love this one - succinct words and a terrific photo. I very much like how you compared the troubles to riding on a train and simply need to disembark.
Wonderful advice - great words - very best of luck.

AT, thank you so much. I am having major problems with the site, so if I don't reciprocate this review, it is because the site wouldn't let me do it. I appreciate your sixth star. Brooke

I just posted a message about the site. Been locked out at least 4 times today - did some reviews, but have NO IDEA if anyone has received them. This is insane. Just now it told me I could not login in because I wasn't a member.

yeah, that has happened to me several times today too - but in the past ten minutes things have improved vastly, knock on wood :-)

Good luck with the contest entry. Sounds like a god one: this one is about moving on ahead, plodding along without looking back, no regrets.

This was a very well written acrostic poem. The poem reads well, and the message is very good. No need crying over spilled milk. I loved the line;
Kick your problems to the curb,
Very strong, inspiring message.

Comment from Alan K Pease
Your poem had a great effect on my thinking Brooke about whether to post my poem. I agree with what you say, but I was calling my attention to a dear friend who needs a handle to put on her illness so we can see how to treat it. It takes a long time to go through the medical process here. Only one possibility has been eliminated and this has taken 6 months to find that it is not the case..

Comment from Robert Lee Brown
Another masterpiece of writing for the book. I have so missed all the good writes during the last 3 months. Still have soreness in my right leg but am back driving again. Thanks be to all those who contributed to my pulling through. Your older admirer, Bob

Comment from GWinterwin
Very good poem with a good picture to match. Good word flow and rhyming as you tell of how one needs to look a head and never back. Things of the past doesn't help the future.

I enjoyed 'Clickety Clack,' and wish you luck in the contest. I liked each line, this one will stick with me :
Evict each trial and trouble, tarry not where sorrows dwell.

Comment from Dorothy Farrell
Nice one - I will try and take your advice Brooke - doubt I will always succeed. Nice to read an acrostic that makes sense and not random lines to use all the necessary letters. I think your last line would be better indented as it reads 'clacka' - Good luck in the contest. Regards Dorothy

Another six for you...
Acrostics can be stale, or downright corny in order to bash the words of the poem into something meaningful in relation to the Acrostic Word(s) being studied - but not this one.
The Acrostic turns out to be a delightful key and commentary to the poem. It's fun to say at the outset and at the conclusion of the poem.
The meter of the poem itself is excellent, as is the message of the poem.
Kids of all ages will delight in this one.
Rose.

I hope you don't have to buy a wig - The finished product always looks easier than it was when it is being written. LOL
