Well written quatern poem with excellent content. I do feel we must "act as if" and project positivity. It's important to enjoy every day that we have.

Well deserved
Comment from Gloria ....
Take the focus of self and dare to share - I think you might mean to take the focus off self there? Not entirely sure, but just in case. LOL.
Excellent quatern and the sentiment is such great advice for us all. It's so easy to become self-absorbed and spend one's entire life looking inward.
Best wishes to you in the contest. Your presentation of poetry is excellent.

Comment from Joan E.
What a beautiful artwork and quote you selected to adorn your Quatern! I admired the way the message cascaded through your poem and you shared your wisdom with us. I was captivated by "The cosmic dust, science taught us to trace" and your "river" metaphor. Best wishes in the contest- Joan

Comment from royowen
A beautifully composed Quatern entry in this contest. I really love the simple presentation of poetic art, no metaphorical mystery, but plainly written in elegant, easily interpreted language. A message of onward and upward, of life spent in the progressive lane. Nicely scribed in fluid, even terms, in aabb rhyming, well done, good luck, blessings, Roy.

Thank You Gypsy for your excellent review.
Comment from TAB_that's me
from what I understand of the form and the contest, each line has to have 8 syllables and yours does not - first line has 9, second and third have 10 each - I didn't count after that.
If you change it let me and I will change your rating.

Thanks Teresa for your informative review, I made a mistake of not reading the rules of the poem properly, so I will just leave it.
Comment from Tessa Kay
Very nice poem with a very wise message. Your repeated line is very thought-provoking, showing we're in control of how we present ourselves, not just victims
of our surroundings. Well thought out and well presented.

I like the repeated line, 'choose the message you're sending out there.' If we all send the message of love, the world would be filled with love and not hate. Good luck in the contest and thank you for sharing.

Thank you. I needed this reminder. Lately, I have been stressing too much and giving thanks too less. Best to you with the entry in this contest.
